A custom Vista folder icon for Dropbox built using Pixelformer.  Dropbox ships with an icon for XP, but on Vista (at least on my installation) it has a normal folder icon. I'm not sure what the light box around the status symbol on the extra large icon is from, I think it's from the overlay image used by Dropbox.

For more information see the original blog post.

Installation

Download the icon below, and unzip it somewhere that it can live permanently. I'd suggest creating an Icons directory in your Dropbox.  If you delete the icon,

On XP and Vista right click on the Dropbox directory and choose Properties. Click the Customize tab and then the Change Icon button and browse to the unzipped .ico file.  Select the icon and click OK twice.
