Desktop Icon Type Color

Is there any way to change the desktop icon's type font color?

The icon type is no longer the shadow kind but now a plain font.

I just want the color to be other than white.

Re: Desktop Icon Type Color

Do it with Iconoid from [url]www.sillysot.com[/url] and you could probably do it with
Stardock's applications or Style XP on Vista.

Re: Desktop Icon Type Color

Thanks, Chad... works perfectly. Curious why Vista removed the ability to
adjust desktop icon text. Oh well, maybe in the next version.
Thanks again.
