Coming from the "Custom Built Clicks" department, Lockergnomaniac David McDonald picks apart some pixels. There's nothing wrong with being a PC purist. Some of us want things done to our specifications, or we'd rather have them not done at all. Microsoft made the Windows Explorer 'Web view' look a certain way, but there's a simple way to change those graphics. Backup your Web folder (which sits within the Windows folder) before doing anything. Now, go into the Web folder and you'll see a hidden BMP file named: WVLEFT. Edit it to your liking (without altering the dimensions) and after you save it, you'll see the results immediately. Feeling adventurous? Take a peek at what else is in the 'Web' folder. Don't change anything if you don't know what you're changing, though.
