    Lightbulb Desktop Customizetion?

    I was just wondering... For some odd reason I want to replace the icons for the emulators with those of the actual systems just because I think it'd be cool to feel like I have the genuine systems on my computer. Is it necessarily possible to do such a thing?

    No, unless you use some kind of a resource editor to change the icon as executable icons are hardcoded.

    you can replace the emu icons if they are shortcuts. but you can't change their executable files.

    Resource Hacker is easy to use, though it doesn't always work (I think it has trouble with upx compressed exe's). Miretank's idea is the simpler option.
