Description of problem:
With the 'User's Home' and 'Start Here' icons on the Gnome desktop you can
open the right mouse button click menu and under 'Properties' choose
'Select Custom Icon' and the change the icon to something else.
This is not possible for the 'Trash' icon.
Selecting 'Properties' gives a very basic menu where you can change nothing

Comment 1 Alexander Larsson 2003-01-16 11:43:18 UTC
The way the trash full/empty icon change is handle makes this impossible atm,
unfortunately. Changing this requires redoing the trash system a lot, which
might happen in the future.

The only way to change your thrashcan at the moment is to use the icon themeing
system.
You can do this by adding files named:
gnome-fs-trash-empty.png
gnome-fs-trash-full.png
gnome-fs-trash-empty-accept.png
gnome-fs-trash-full-accept.png

to ~/.icons/$theme/48x48/filesystems/ where $theme is the theme you're using
(probably "gnome" or "Bluecurve").
