Bookmarks Toolbar Folder

Post by antiquexray »

After some trial and error, I've been successful in making my Dell Inspiron a dual boot box. After getting Mint installed, I noticed that the Mint links in the bookmarks toolbar folder are missing. I manually placed the Mint links there, but they are missing the Mint logo. How do I go about restoring the logo?

PS, I know it's not a big deal, but it's frustrating not knowing how to do it :)

so, for the icons to show up, make sure the URLs are like this:
Linux Mint -> http://www.linuxmint.com/
Linux Mint Forums -> http://www.linuxmint.com/forum/
Linux Mint Software Portal -> http://www.linuxmint.com/software/
Linux Mint Wiki -> http://www.linuxmint.com/wiki/
Then you have to click on each of the icons :roll: and then the little icon should show up =) hope that helps.
That worked with everyone but the Portal. For some reason the icon is not showing up :( ...but thanks for helping.

Leave all the other icons intact.
Right click on the software portal icon and click properties and change the location to:
http://www.linuxmint.com/
then click ok
then click it on the bookmarks toolbar.
the icon should show up
now right click again and click properties.
change the location back to the software portal url

That didn't work, but it gave me an idea that did. I changed the address of the Wikimint (it had the icon) to the Portal, then renamed it Wikimint. Then I went to Wikimint and saved it to the Bookmarks Tool Folder, clicked on it, and up popped the icon. Thanks for your help
