That's your trip, Frank, not mine. All my children have successfully
graduate from college with honors except one that's in the second year,
also getting honors.

Congratulations Alias. Good job. That should offer some inspiration for
Francis. If he works really really hard, he might make it through Grade 4
in the next year or two. Then with more effort, he might eventually make it
into college. I'm sure they offer courses in college for seniors.

Cheers.

Sure they are. The world would be lucky if an idiot like you did not
ever reproduce. If you did I only hope you didn't molest them. If you
did molest them I only hope the authorities get your sick ass really soon!

Will this method allow someone to create an additonal personal folder (for
instance, "Scans") that contains a location tab in its properties menu?

No, it only works for the pre-defined user folders.

Too bad. Being able to create your own Personal Folders in the location you
want would be great!

I found this thread while searching for the same answer. I was able to create a new downloads folder but it had the yellow folder icon and I wanted the original green icon restored.

I accidentally discovered that if I changed the name of the new "Downloads" folder to "My Downloads" it changed the folder icon back to green and is just called "Downloads"

Don't know why that worked, but it did and certainly is simpler than messing around with any deeper controls. ;)

Cheers.
