customizing freeware?

Does anyone know of any FREEWARE apps that can do the following?

* Change loads if icons the icon packager does.
* Add wallpaper to folder backgrounds (preferable for ALL folders, not one at a time).

Thankyou.

Spinal...Windowpaper XP v1.01 by Sodabush adds walls to folder backgrounds and is freeware. Sorry, I don't have a link for you, but a google search should turn it up for you. Used in conjunction with Glass2k, which adds transparency and is also freeware, it adds quite a nice effect. Have fun.

I found Windowpaper, it only adds a wallpaper to a single folder, and as an option it can add wallpaper to the folders in that folder, but not those inside them. Not ALL of them.

I also found aprogram called activicons (dontremember who made it), it replaces more icons than icon packager, but for some reason refuses to change folder icons.

as far as i can tell, if you select the apply to all sub-folders, you should also get walls in them as well...haven't looked ino it that far as yet, but the write up says it should.

No, unfortunately it doesnt apply backgrounds to folders contained within sub-folders automatically, but I've just done it manually without problem and thus, their sub-folders also. It may be that future editions could apply backgrounds to all folders within a selected group, but given that its freeware, I'm not complaining about having to manually apply to the sub-sub-folders.
