Here is what my icons look like after applying the tip: 
First I clicked Rename and held down ALT and typed 255. The next one I held down ALT and typed 255<space>255. Then the next one ALT 255<sp>255<sp>255. Like I said, I could not rename MY folder because it don't give you the option of renaming it.
But be aware that there is a side effect of doing this. Notice that Computer has disappeared from the menu bar:
