How do I change icons in my favorites toolbar?

I am migrating from IE to Firefox. So far, I really like the overall look and feel of the interface, and I like the ability to create it to look and function the way I want it to.

I was hoping to be able to customize my bookmarks by creating my own Icon files as I have in Internet Explorer. For example, in IE I can right click on the bookmark in the Favorites toolbar, select Properties from the pop-up menu, then select the Change Icon button, and I can select any icon file which I have created. The graphic then appears in the bookmark. I love it! Can I do this in Firefox?

Thank you for any information, Joe

Firefox doesn't have that feature by default, you can add that feature with this add-on.
