After spending ages abusing myself my PC by hacking files left right and centre and strolling through the registry blindly ( great fun ) but the novelty can wear thin.
 But it's highly reccomended if you've just done a clean install and have nowt to lose !!

So I decided to try out Inspirat 2.

WOW !! Well impressed, apart from one thing that is peeing me off.

I'm unable to change the skin colour (as much as I've tried) in any of the desktop themes that came with it although my original luna and luna royale skins will change.
 As Henry Ford said you can have it any colour you like as long as it's black, but hey I'm a bit of an old boy and I prefer blue ( to match my mood ! ).

Please help point me in the right direction.

I guess you need to patch the UxTheme.dll to get other themes to work: patch download

Cheers for the pointer Bud !

I wrote my post, Then read THIS and had a sudden realisation I was doing botty talk !!

Once I'd turned on "Simple view" which had been turned off (?) I found the "Green", "Blue", etc. skins.

You have to bear with me, I only uploaded earlier today.

Question :~  Can you turn off the "Picture (User)" space on top of the start menu ? Or do you need another start menu skin ?
I'm used to having user name and piccy  turned off as I know who I am and I know what I look like !!

Once again Thx for the pointers
