Sorry, Firefox doesn't have features like that for bookmarks folder. It is possible by using userChrome code, but you have to come up with your own images. Overall it is a royal waste of time.

Maybe there's an extension available that will do at least part of the job. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/ Feel free to search for something you can use.

You will have to right-click the "Free Install" button and select "This Frame > Open Frame in New Tab" to be able to allow the website to install the extension.

hi, 

   i tried the above info and it works a treat, so glad i can change folder icons, just a couple of clicks and you have changed the folder icon, i think it will work on any image does not need to be a icon format, anyway, well chuffed,
                           all the best, bluesfloyd
