Editing textbox background and border

from WinCustomize Forums
I'd like to change the background color for the textboxes (currently it's a beige color) and the border color (currently white) for the textboxes like on the address bar, searching google, etc (using VistaPlus wb). I'd basically like to reverse the colors but not sure where to find them in SkinStudio.

Thanks.

Any takers? Perhaps I should have put this in the Stardock Support section?  :unsure:

I've attempted it myself using Novum OS, but never could find out how. So I turned to several seasoned skinners, but noone knew how. PixelPirate said he believe it's a restriction of Windows. The info I recieved from Dani was what I had already tried so... Anyway, just wanted to let you know it might not be possible, (why noone has answered) but if you do find a solution post so we will know.

Oh yeah, Love the new pics...Yuuuuuum Bebi!

LOL thanks. *blush*

I figured there had to be a way since the colors for the textboxes and stuff (the one I'm typing in right now) is different in this skin than in the other skins I've used. Logic would seem to dictate that it was a per-skin thing but hey, what do I know about skinning.

Ignore my post...I was refering to your inactive menu text post.

No worries. ^_^ And adni released an update for the skin so that the border color is darker now on the edit boxes so they're more visible. I've asked him to see how to change the bg color so we'll see how that goes.
