Gigante Posted February 26, 2002 Share Posted February 26, 2002 is there some way u can make the color box behind the letters go away so that it looks like xp??? Suuuuuuuuure, my friend! :) Search for a soft called TransText, from ChaosSoft. It works great on Win95 and 98. Good luck, bro. BTW, this is my very first post here!

infoman Posted March 31, 2002 Share Posted March 31, 2002 i know that win 98 has no transparency option for icons but i wanna ask that how this happens ? (no programs used for this, in fact this is just a hidden file just moved to desktop) if this can be then maybe i can force other icons to look like that. can anyone tell me the way ?

Tenebrious_Star Posted April 1, 2002 Share Posted April 1, 2002 That file is transparent because its a "hidden" file you can right click and change any file to be hidden. Im wondering if anyone knows a registry change or app that would let me remove icon text all together. It would be much cooler to have just the icons on my desktop.
