altering color-sets or finding alternate color-sets

December 31, 2002 11:36 AM from

OK. the "Simple" objectbar theme is the best thing that ever happened to my computer. The only problem is, the rest of my skins and themes and color-sets are all charcoal, and having this one baby-blue aspect is kinda killin' me.
Are there similar themes (everything in one single object), or alternate versions of Simple that are other colors?
If not, which bitmaps would i need to edit to make the basic shapes look grey instead of blue?
(I'm very new and if I've missed an FAQ or something, or a search feature for this BBS I'm sorry. I -did- look for them.)

The "simple" solution would be to look in the Simple sub-directories and grey-scale everything that is blue.

(use selection tool if any magic pink is in graphic)
