To organize things, you need to unlock them by clicking on lock icon located at the left side of your screen. Then you can move, delete or edit anything you like.

To create a new icon, you must click on one of the empty boxes. Then enter the URL you want to target and add 128 x 128 pixels icon to customize the appearance of the link.
