Is it possible to replace the folder image in the bookmarks list with little images to help identify the folder. I see that many places I have bookmarked automatically come with a little picture (the CBS "eye", New York Times Old English Script).

When I open my list of bookmarks most of the folders I have established have only the little file folder icon to the left. I would like to replace this file folder with some little picture or symbol to make the folders more easily identifiable. Is this possible?

There aren't extensions that can replace the favicon of a bookmarks folder AFAIK, so you will have to do that via code in userChrome.css in the chrome folder below the @namespace line.

You can use the ChromEdit Plus or Stylish extension to have easier access to the customization files.

Folder names (label="name") are cases sensitive and need to match exactly what you get via the properties Pace the folder-icon.png icons in the same chrome folder. This code works for icons on the Bookmarks Toolbar.


#personal-bookmarks .bookmark-item[container][label="Folder_Name"]{
 list-style-image:url('folder-icon.png')!important;
 -moz-image-region:auto!important;
}
