nautilus in ubuntu

I use Ubuntu is ubuntu Lucid. This time we will give you a little border effects on the thumbnail picture of nautilus.

The trick? yes .. just follow these steps:


  1. Please open the terminal application
  2. Move to the directory/usr/share/pixmaps/nautilus with the command
    $ Cd/usr/share/pixmaps/nautilus/
  3. Border image file downloads, and immediately rename it with the new name
    $ Sudo wget-O thumbnail_frame.png http://a.imageshack.us/img135/8666/thumbnailframe.png
  4. Restart Nautilus
    $ Sudo killall nautilus

So .. short enough not you do that? Now please open nautilus and open the directory that contains images.
