Silver_Dragon Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 This is probably a very simple answer but I cannot for the life of me figure this out. This isn't the desktop I'm using, the one I'm using has a light silver background, and with the icon text white like this one...I can't see the icon text too well...:P Say I want to simply change the area of the text behind the icon to a shade of dark blue or black or something. What I was doing was right clicking the desktop, selecting properties, then going to 'Appearance' but none of the ones I tried changed the icon text. Again, its probably something simple I overlooked, but I'm impatient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercifull Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 My any chance did you search google for Changing Icon text color :roll: Top result mate. It cant be done natively with WinXP. Its either White or Black depending on the desktop background colour (even when theres a wallpaper) but it can be done with the aid of a 3rd party program such as the simple on on the top result or using styleXP or Windowblinds.

Veiva Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 Right click on "My Computer" -> System Properties -> Advanced -> Under Performance click settings. Scroll down and you'll see one labeled "Use Drops Shadows for Icon Labels on Desktop" de select it'll be like so: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
