i am guessing the skin you are looking at has the textrues.xpr file, that's where all the icons are stored.
the default icons are names something like defaultfolderbig.png (the exact name escapes me)

first try to just put a different defaultfolderbig.png image into the media directory, and see if that works. i can't confirm it, because i don't use the texture file

what i did, is downloaded the cvs and just copied all the uncompressed images to the media directory of the skin, and replaced the defalt ones

i hope that helps

that is correct webmaster_p. as the skin engine looks for media/images first in the media directory and then goes to the textures.xpr file. so images in the media directory has priority over images in the textures.xpr file. here (http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/xbmc/xbmc/skin/mediacenter/media/) you can look at all the images in the default skin and find the appropriate names for them.
