    Hey guys, I'm using windows XP for quite a while now. I've always sticked to plain desktop colors, sometimes a wallpaper for a change. Now I'm making my own wallpaper, and I want my icon description on the desktop to be transparent again. It's probably very simple, but I cant find the menu to change all those nifty XP option back again. Anyone able to help me? :rolleyes:

    Not sure if this is what you're looking for, but I'd start here: Properties-->Appearance-->Advanced.

    Thanks, but that's not it. I want the background behind the icon text to dissapear. I want it to be nice and transparent so I can see the wallpaper right thrue...

    My Computer

    Advanced
    Performance..Settings

    And I think it's 'Use Drop Shadows for Icon Labels...'
