However, many users may not know, the directory and files under the Mac can also be able to define their own icons, this is a Mac gives us another cool and useful surprise. The icons you define will make our files more recognizable, and we can manage the files and immediately know the contents of the catalog. in fact, the operation is relatively easy:First find a picture of your own favorite, double-click with Preview Open, open and then move the mouse to the picture. A line of cross will appear. This indicates that we are able to select areas of our own definition.

Next we select a point to drag to get the area you want, assuming that it is not comfortable, ESC will be able to cancel the re-election. I will use a personal favorite image I have saved, such as the following effect of interception.

Select and then press "command" + "C" to copy. after copying it. We come to the table of contents that need to replace the icon, right-click briefly, or click the shortcut key "command" + "I" to come to the simple introduction of the directory interface. Then select the icon for the Avatar directory. When selected, the icon appears with a blue border. This time Press "command" + "V" To paste the picture you just selected.

Note: Assume that no graphics are selected in the preview. Instead, copy the entire picture file directly to the specified location. Then use the default icon for that format picture, for example, assuming that a JPG-formatted picture is pasted directly to that location. The icon is displayed instead of the picture itself.
