Desktop Icon Color

Hey,

Im trying to change the font color of my desktop shortcuts away from the default of white.

Ive gone into

properties > appearance > advanced > icon

but it wont let me change the color, surely this can be done, what am i doing wrong ?

Cheers
PB

 

Welcome to the boards PBeohm
Maybe Transtext or Windowblinds will get the job done?

the problem is under 'icon' the color tab isnt active so i cant change it at all.

 

Hi again PBeohm
Will neither of the links above do as you'd like?
