XP Folder Templates

I have a directory where I store pictures.
C:\..........MyDocs\My Pictures
I would like to have the pictures files in that directory display as
"thumbnails" when being accessed
with Explore.

When I right click the directory, and select properties, there is no
"Customize" tab displayed in the properties dialog box. This is where I
could select the "picture" folder template that displays picture files as
thumbnails.
I have other "picture" directories on that same drive that work fine, show
the pics as thumbnails, and displays the "Customize"
property tab.

Darned if I can figure out how to get the My Pictures directory to work like
the
others.

Why doesn't this directory have a "customize" property??

Thanks in advance,
Al Camp

I found the answer...
Note: this feature should be available for every folder on your system
except your system folders. Since you can't "Customize" system folders (such
as My Pictures)

You should be able to set the Thumbnail View in that folder by selecting
View/Thumbnails on the Toolbar.
