The path to the custom symbols folder-can I define a different path? Why is it the same path now?

Hey Mayca
When you want to use an image as an icon, put it into the Custom Symbol folder, either directly or in a subfolder.
It seems you have already done this. I also assume that you have clicked the Reload button in the Symbol Style dialog.
There are a few reasons why a symbol in the folder doesn't show correctly on a map:
- Too long file name. The filename should have 27 characters or less.
- The file name must be unique across the Custom Symbol folder and all the subfolders.
I can see you are using a GIF. Can you try saving it as a PNG and add this to see if that helps?

How can I put an icon that I have in a folder so that it appears in the theme?
I have tried and it is not visible
