How do I change my Bookmark Folder icons? I'm on Windows 7 Home Basic 64-bit.
I tried making a "userChrome.css" file and placing it on the default folder with this code inside:
@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul");
.bookmark-item[container="true"][label="Santoni's Place"] {
list-style-image: url('file:///C:\Users\Sher\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\nvj9dku5.default/santoni's place.ico') !important;
-moz-image-region: rect(0px 32px 32px 0px) !important;
}
But it doesn't seem to work. Is it because of my OS? How do I do it if so?

That is an invalid URL, try:
file:///C:/Users/Sher/AppData/Local/Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles/nvj9dku5.default/santoni%27s%20place.ico

Try using a jpg or png image rather than the ico image.
Also, get rid of the spaces in the image name (mentioned by diegocr). You are better off with a name like santoni-s_place.jpg than using %-number code for spaces and punctuation marks. Using those in cross OS applications is asking for problems.
Note that %AppData%\Local is the location of the cache folder and not the main Firefox Profile Folder (%AppData%\Roaming).
If you place the image(s) in the chrome folder in the current Firefox Profile Folder then you can leave out the rest of the file path and only use the image file name.
It is best to use a simple image name and not one with quotes and spaces (use an "_" instead of a space).
You can't use the same quotes in the name ('xxxx'x.xxx') unless you escape them or better use a double quote and or a simple name without quotes ('xxxx\'x.xxx' or "xxxx_x.xxx").
