Hi Ahmadkordia; welcome to our Community!

As your question seems related to this discussion, I moved your post under this thread. 

 

To cut things short, you won't be able to have custom folder icons for your Dropbox Folder or any folders within it, for as long as you're running the desktop app at least. 

 

If you were referring to the website, I'd suggest upvoting the relevant feature request to show your interest.

 

I hope this helps and please let us know if you have any more questions.
