CHANGE RECYCLE BIN ICON - EMPTY FULL HOW?

Hi
In Xp I was able to set the recycle bin icon to change depending on
whether the bin was empty or full
Anyone know how to do this in vista please?

Yes, I would like to have them visually more different
The vista empty and full icons look very similar to me

Right-click a blank space on your desktop and select Personalize. In the
next window go over to the far left and select "Change Desktop Icons".
