First of all put the iamge file ( eg. test.jpg) in the root of the Flash drive. Then create a text file there and rename it to desktop.ini to the root of the Flsh drive.. Make sure it's not a .txt file.

Then open the desktop.ini file in notepad and enter following content.

Code:

[ExtShellFolderViews]
{BE098140-A513-11D0-A3A4-00C04FD706EC}={BE098140-A513-11D0-A­3A4-00C04FD706EC}
[{BE098140-A513-11D0-A3A4-00C04FD706EC}]
IconArea_Image=test.jpg



>>.try it. :)

It is explained in the first message at the top

1- copy the image that you want to the root directory of the flash usb

2- in the same root directory of the flash usb, create a text file with notepad or other plain text editor, and
write inside it the following


[ExtShellFolderViews]
{BE098140-A513-11D0-A3A4-00C04FD706EC}={BE098140-A513-11D0-A­Â­3A4-00C04FD706EC}
[{BE098140-A513-11D0-A3A4-00C04FD706EC}]
IconArea_Image=test.jpg


3- please note that the last line, must have the NAME of the image file you want. you must susbtitue
test.jpg with the real name of your file

4- save & close that file

5. rename that text file to this name:
Desktop.ini

6. so in the root directory of the flash usb, must be at least, the image file that you want to show as background, and the text file you edited and renamed to Desktop.ini

Yah!! thats code is really ryt!!

just ff: this steps:

1. first you must find the picture you want to put on the desktop of your flash drive.
2. then copy it to your flash drive.
3.Then open notepad or some any textpad then copy this to your notepad or textpad;

[ExtShellFolderViews]
BE098140-A513-11D0-A3A4-00C04FD706EC}={BE098140-A513-11D0-A3­A4-00C04FD706EC}
[{BE098140-A513-11D0-A3A4-00C04FD706EC}]
IconArea_Image=a.jpg
Iconarea_Text=0xFFFFFF


4. Remember that you must edit this "IconArea_image="name of your pic you want be".jpg"
5. Then Iconarea_text=0xFFFFFF is the color of your text that you want to....then edit it if you some any color.
6.Then GOto File=> save as =>
7.as you can see the File name
8. Change it to "Desktop.ini" this is the important thing....
9. Good Luck!!!!!!!!!

Well if that code is not working properly try something advance

Try this code:

[ExveemonShellFolderViews]
Digimon 02
[{BE098140-A513-11D0-A3A4-00C04FD706EC}]
IconArea_Image=\BACKGROUND\.jpg


Wait i will explain that code is working for windows 7,windows Xp,windows vista
and place your picture between "BACKGROUND" and .jpg
the folder named "BACKGROUND" is the location of your picture that you want
to install for your USB flash disk.


THANK YOU!!!

Hi!
To change the picture inside the folder name Wall Paper


[ExtShellFolderViews]
{BE098140-A513-11D0-A3A4-00C04FD706EC}={BE098140-A513-11D0-A­­Ã‚­3A4-00C04FD706EC}
[{BE098140-A513-11D0-A3A4-00C04FD706EC}]
IconArea_Image=1.jpg

Just only change the code. this code is good for windows xp,windows 7,windows vista,windows 98 and windows 2000.

this is my own code.

[ExveemonFolderViews]
[{BE098140-A513-11D0-A3A4-00C04FD706EC}]
IconArea_Image=\Wall Paper\1.jpg

NOTE! if you transfer again your image file in another file folder to activate it again just change the file folder name inside of the two slash.
