The new edition of Icon-A-Day has re-kindled my desire to make a custom icon pack, using various file-type icons that I like.   The Icon-A-Day file-types are pretty nice, and they scale down pretty well.
 
However as I start to do it, i come across the same old problem.   90% of the time I use Explorer, I'm in "Details View" so that I can properly sort file easily....and see pertanent details about them.
The problem with that is, that in Detials View, icons are ALWAYS 16x16, and so not only can I appreciate having nice icons,  but I can barely tell them apart!
Surely someone must have found a way to hack things up to get larger icons in Details View?   My ideal would be to actually have "Tiles" view, but with additional fields spread out to the right.
