Default How do I make icon text background transparent?
I am trying to make the background text of my desktop icons transparent, but I can't seem to find much info about it. I did find a thread about it here: http://www.xperience.org/forum/showt...ackground+text
but I already had that option ticked and it doesn't seem to make any difference. Any ideas?

Default RE: Transparent Icons
I found a little program that does exactly what you're asking. It allows you to set the text color to anything you like. It also makes the icon's text background completely transparent. Read the readme file for instructions on how to run the program in the background at startup.
