pardon let me rephrase:
When I go in windows explorer the highlight when I move my mouse over the icons is yellow, also in the start menu when I browse the programs
VG
^^ Nope. Its not yellow. Try to re-apply the theme. Might be your graphics card driver problem. make sure you are using latest VGA drivers.

Thanks for the fast response, here is what I get, tried re-applying stuff... Btw I'm using a patched uxtheme.dll for x64 vista... Here's what I get. http://www.hotlinkfiles.com/files/1719989_f6loe/thisone.jpg , I really like your VS, I hope we could fix this.. As for waiting for your answer I will try to re-install my video card driver... Thanks
VG
^^ Its wrong highlight color. Must be either x64 patched file problem or your old VGA driver problem.

Hey VG,
You're theme is amazing.
I love using it.
However, I have one problem. Lets say I have an explorer open and I open the start menu. The transparency plus the white font and the almost always white background of the window makes it very hard to see. I was wondering if you knew how to change the color of the text on the right side of the start menu from white to black.
Thanks
VG
^^ Try to change the transparency color from Desktop Properties.
Jack
But i like the transparency thing, just need to change the font color
VG
^^ I didnt ask to disable Transparency. Just change its color to make it more darker so that you can see the text. The text color can't be changed.
