Following this link https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddingMimeTypes, I first typed a command to discover the mimetype for psd extension

~$ grep 'psd' /etc/mime.types 
image/x-photoshop       psd

Then I took Photoshop CS5 SVG image from Wikipedia and renamed it to image-x-photoshop.svg. Then I copied the file to the folder /usr/share/icons/gnome/scalable via command

sudo cp image-x-photoshop.svg /usr/share/icons/gnome/scalable/image-x-photoshop.svg

Loogged out, logged in, but the icon for the .psd files is still unchanged.

Does anyone know what I am doing wrong? I use Ubuntu 10.10.

Thanks in advance
