    I got rid of StyleXP because it didn't have enough different skins and got Window Blinds to try out. After changing to a new skin, I noticed it changed my desktop icons back to the XP default. Normally I could go into Desktop Properties>Appearance>Advanced to change them to what I wanted. Now I notice that the place to change icons is totally gone. Is this because of Window Blinds? Is there an option in Window Blinds to change my desktop icons back to what I want?

    I use Window Blinds and that option is still available in Display Properties>Desktop tab>Customize button, so I don't think it's something Window Blinds disables as a matter of course.

    Open Window Blinds and click on "User Overrides." Uncheck "Allow skins to replace user icons" there and see if that resolves the problem.
