How Do I Make My Desktop Icons Massive?

from Stardock Forums
I noticed in this screenshot that the icons on the desktop are massive. I want to be able to get mine that size too, however, when I make my icons bigger, it also increases the size of the Start Menu icons. How can I just make the desktop icons bigger?

You could use IconX to make the desktop icons larger.

BTW - in that screenshot, that is normal size for desktop icons on Vista.

In Vista, you can [ctrl]-spin mousewheel to resize icons  !!!

Those icons in that screenshot were made larger through native Vista, as Zubaz recommended.

IconX is not yet Vista-ready, just for the record. When it is though, that'll allow for a great deal more customization of the desktop icons

Weeeee...oh, whoops! Don't make them too big, or you'll lose your fragile icon placement

Mike . . to rephrase the question . . . is there a way with IconPackager to set desktop icons differently sized than start menu icons?
