Are you using WindowBlinds? If so, then there are five ways you can change the background.
1. Use a different WB skin.
2. In the WB Configuration dialogue, under Basic Settings>Skin window backgrounds, un-check the box next to Dialog Backgrounds.
3. In the WB Configuration dialogue, under Basic Settings, click the Backgrounds button on the right. In the new window, check the box next to ''Override the skin settings for background bitmaps.'' if you do not like the bitmaps that are there by default, left click on the background image you don''t like, and you can change to a different image. You may need to create your own using MS Paint, PSP, Photoshop, etc.
4. If you have SkinStudio, you can change the background bitmaps in the skin itself. You will find them in the left tree under Miscellaneous>Personality and right tree under Backgrounds. As in #3 above, you may need to create your own background.bmp.
5. Unload WindowBlinds. Change the background through Display Properties.
Hope this helps you. Have a nice day.
P.S. There is no need to post more than once per topic. You have this same topic also posted on the help board.
