Is there a way I can customize the way my thumbnails look?

You'll need to do hacking with your explorer.exe

try Resedit.

Thanks for the idea, but since I'm a n00b with editing I found another solution:

QUOTE(warius@ Aqua Soft forums)
I've attached the modified shell32.dll to make this operation easy if you want to try it:

1. Replace your c:\windows\system32\shell32.dll using Replacer with the attached one (remember to backup your original)
2. Reboot
3. Rebuild Icon Cache (with TweakUI or Folder2Ico)
4. Disable caching of thumbnails (Folder Options->View files->Do not cache thumbnails)

I've also included the shell32.ico if you think it's safer to ResHack shell32.dll yourself, otherwise, you don't really need it.
You can view the complete thread here.

I'll just attach the shell file here; incase anyone wants it.

Oh and just for showing off.. tongue.gif
