yea I figured that, but isnt there a way you can manually put them on?
sorta - find a file called bookmarks.html in:
\Documents and Settings\[user]\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\default[xyz]
open in notepad and you'll see lines like this:
The bit in ICON defines the bitmap used for the icon, but its in a strange format called base64 which allows you to store 8-bit data as 6-bit data (ASCII chars, basically converting 8-bit data stream into 6-bit data. read this to learn how: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://email.about.com/cs/standards...64_encoding.htm">http://email.about.com/cs/standards...64_encoding.htm</a><!-- m -->).
to "manually put them on", you'll need to convert your icons to base64 format and the right size etc. There may be a tool out there to handle all this specific conversion, i don't know. there is this for general conversions:

good luck! let us know if you find a specialised program to do this.
