Thanks Kenray, but I think some of you are misreading my post. I don't want to make the icon background transparent, (I can do that) I want to get rid of the text altogether! If you right click on any icon, there is an option to Rename, but if you don't type anything it says "You must type a filename". I really don't want text beneath my icons, so if anyone can tell me how to do it, that would be great. Thanks.

Hmmm... Migellito, I hate to say this, but, /me whispers.."I don't like desktop X" I love window blinds and iconpackager but I find DX a pain. (sorry Brad!) Come on you 'puter heads, someone must know how to do it.
Crae: None of those apps actually remove the TEXT. Surely someone knows how to get rid of the text?
O.K., It may be a stupid newbie question, but, is it possible when using Windows, to have desktop icons without ANY text underneath them? I usually use Litestep, but due to problems I am having to use the explorer shell, and I'm trying to make the desktop look pretty but that damn icon text is driving me nuts!! Am I unusual in not wanting text beneath my icons?, surely the icon represents the program, making the text surplus to requirements (and it's ugly!). I'm using Windows ME. Thanks
Yeah, me too, Flummox.
My last three wallpaper uploads never appeared in the "Newest Additions" section. Have I upset someone? lol. Admins, any ideas?
Try this site for some cool tutorials..... http://www.pankpages.com
As this is a "portal" site to other skin sites, I think you should all pay a visit to Skinbase.org. It's a great site and just needs more visitors. You may want to upload some of your wonderful skins there too, to fill out the gaps. With many of the skin sites going down, we should be supporting the ones that are left.
Yeah, I heard that while you were arguing about which flag to put out at the Australian Grand Prix, four cars crashed! lol. /me goes back to creating latest XP masterpiece... Mac XP for Litestep ha ha.
O.K. you guys, stop arguing, I was the first to upload a joke XP wallpaper(xp BoXXi style),and my girlfriend (Kylie Minogue) thinks it's much better than yours! Seriously though, the wall that I made took about 7 minutes to make, and would have made the top 10 if I hadn't forgotten the lens flare (damn!)lol. Helder: I agree with all that you said. I personally have never even looked twice at any XP walls, and find it hard to understand why people choose to use them. I would much rat
Oh man!, I'm real sorry about that Chaz. Good luck with the re-make, we will be waiting patiently. ......-=Bry=-......
I've got 128mb, but I only have a 233mhz PII. Drives me mad sometimes, but I can't afford to upgrade just yet. sob!
Check it out........... http://riddleme.com/html/cow.html
I assume you are talking about a laptop computer? If you are, then as long as it has a version of windows on it, you should be able to change the wallpaper by using the method you described. Just remember that the picture of your daughter should be a .bmp, and should be placed in C:\windows I hope this helps.
Olive pie for the Marine-----------[} Eat that sucker.......lol.
What are you guys arguing about? I'd rather have Kylie anyday! (But just stay away from Meg Ryan o.k.? She's mine!)
I think PaXXi would be a good name, don't know why though......... Congratulations and good luck.
Crae: You seem in a very helpful mood today. Did someone push some food under the cellar door? lol.
Well, I have been using the Skinz skin since it was released, I just need the daily fix of brown and tan. I guess I spent so much time at "Skinz" when it was open that this eases the withdrawal symptoms somewhat. By the way Brad, where is Shoggot these days?
Jafo & Nicole Kidman???....... Hmmm....Mission Impossible! "Meanwhile, back in the real world............lol.
Jafo... it's KNEW, not NEW. tsk tsk. (ROFL) /me wipes tears of laughter from his eyes and continues....... I made an XP wall in about seven minutes flat, and some people thought it was a serious attempt! Is my art generally that bad?
I don't think it's quite ready yet, but I could be wrong.
I have no problems with speed either here or at Devart, and I only have a 56k modem, and it isn't even a V90 standard, just a k56 flex. Strange isn't it? Could it be something to do with individual ISP's? Eat my dust suckers, heh!.
If I could get a mug, t shirt and cap for $25 + $5 shipping, I would buy them. Is that possible? And would it matter that I live in England? Of course I only want the shirt if it has China's fonts in it. I mean ON it!! phew!
