Solved Why are some folder icons shown very small and some not?

I have a collection of .ico files, and have been using them as folder icons. However, whilst some show as I would expect, some of them are shown at a very small size, rather than the size of the folder. See the screenshot below...

As you can see, the icons for four of the folders fill the space, but three of them are very small. Note that "_Best of", "Album art" and "Videos" don't have icons set.

As far as I can see, there isn't any significant difference between the icons themselves. Most are 220x200 pixels, but none of them have any extra space around the main part of the image. I've attached the icons in case it helps.

Anyone any idea why the icons aren't filling the space? Thanks
