How do you display large icons in WIN XP; in Windows 2000 you can use "View" on menu bar or right-clicking

In windows 2000 you can also r-click and and select "view-large icons". But Win XP has options like "tiles".  Where is the "large icons" option?

Hi, I don't mean how to get "large icons" to display by using a shortcut menu, such as right-clicking in an open window and getting a selection of small, large, thumbnail, etc.   Windows 2000 has this function but Win XP doesn't seem to.
If you want large Desktop icons, you have your answer. If that's not what you want, please explain what you do want.
