      Tell me how to make icons bigger

      I've seen some videos/pictures of desktops with icons much bigger than everything else, and I wish to divide my desktop into two things; a giant firefox icon (Like half the size of my monitor. And I've got a big monitor) and then one folder labeled "everything else" with my other icons in it.

      So, question:

      How do I resize icons?

      Edit: Just figured out the folder thing. =D

      Ctrl-click on your desktop -> Get Info -> There is a slider on the top where you change the size of your icons. You can only change them that way per folder, not per icon. To change the icon yourself, you have to use the terminal to change the size of individual one.

      How would you use the terminal to do this? I only know the dashboard on desktop trick.

      Oops, I guess you can't do it per icon. Only per folder.
