You can put them anywhere. Just click on the current icon properties and select "Change Icon" and point it to the folder and icon of your choice.

I think you have to change the folders icons through windows explorer. I cannot find the system recycle bin icon without handles. I have it as my icon, but I do not know where XP stores them :(

I've got some good hockey logo icons if you want them. They work with 98se surely they will work with XP, I mean they are only icons.
