non-question about directories, please please please forgive me

[Francisco Diaz Trepat - gmail]

Thanks for your answer Gilles. I already try that and it doesn't put the
folder icon in the Places Menu and the Places Panel in nautilus.

It show the new folder icon in the main viewer of the nautilus, but when
shown in the places menu, places panel, file selector dialog, etc. it
displays a normal folder icon.

cheers,
f(t)
