If you do:
sudo cp -r Documents /Volumes/Storage
sudo rm -rf Documents
sudo ln -s /Volumes/Storage/Documents Documents
Your documents will now be on a Storage drive instead of your boot drive. I can change the folder's icon so when I go to my boot drive and my user's home, the Documents folder will have a special icon, but under Places in Finder window, it will show up as a regular folder icon (vanilla) as any other regular folder. I was wondering if anyone was successful into changing the icons under Places after the symbolic link process?
Thanks.
Edit: Never mind, solved it
Just drag the folder from the other disk instead of the symbolic link, just assign a desired icon to it before you do it.
