Is there any chance to have PNG icons (or just something else than .ico) in explorer?
I hate that ugly windows icons, want to have it nice just like a dock, but..I really don't know how/if there is any app to do that.
Thanks for any advice.

I don't think it's possible to change the icons like folders and files to PNG icons... I could be wrong, I mean it might be possible with other software that changes system icons

Yes, you understand what I was asking for...A already know that it isn't possible without any "skinning" application, but I still cannot find it.
Here's PSed screenshot for those who maybe don't absolutely understand:

For explorer, you need apps like Icontweaker, BeeIcons or IconPackager.
All these apps use ICOs and can change your icons system-wide or individually.
I use the later and am quite pleased with it, but it's around 20$ for a lifetime license.

If you'd like to change the icons in your toolbar, download Styler.
You can do many other things with this app, as well as control icon size and spacing in explorer.
You'll find various themes for it at DeviantART & in WindowBlinds Packages.
Good luck smile
