changing desktop background w/ windowblinds shareware?

August 22, 2004 11:29 AM from

Hey guys,

I'm currently using windowblinds 4.3 shareware version. The skin I'm using (FireFlexx2) is awesome however the desktop background is set to gray, when I would prefer black. I've tried multiple ways but i can't seem to figure out how to change the desktop color from gray to black? When I go into display properties and change it it changes back on reboot. Also I can't change it in the Appearence tab since I get "not available in shareware." How can I change my desktop color from gray to black permanently? Thx guys.

You would have to edit the skin in SkinStudio
