In order for you to use a photo as a folder icon it must have an .ico
extension.Here is a link to a free and very good photo program.(download the
plugins as well you can view quicktime movies with this).

Open the photo you wish to use with irfranview and save it with an .ico
extension then follow what Ayush suggested.
Good Luck!
