Does anyone know how to set folder backgrounds (wallpaper) in WinXP? In Win98 it was as easy as going to customize this folder and adding the wallpaper there but WinXP doesn't seem to allow it from that function. I've been trying for some time now and it only comes down to something that I must have missed, or that it cannot be done which doesn't seem likely.
Any help would be well appreciated!

That's just it though. It will allow me to use a Folder Image or a Folder Icon but it will not allow me to use a Folder Background. I thought that Folder Image would be it but all that does is assign an image to a folder when displayed as a thumbnail view.

Gilgamesh, basically I am trying to give a folder's background it's own wallpaper. A task easily accomplished in Win98 but somewhat difficult in XP. (Or so it seems)
