change windows [explorer] colors?
Howdy-
I'm pathologically oversensitive [one of those guys who endlessly tweaks his tv picture, browser settings etc.], so i have a problem with 'windows windows' [i.e. windows explorer windows]. The bright white backgrounds are less visible than, say, white text on gray backgrounds.
Yes, you can change title bar [etc.] colors, but not the text color and main backgrounds. I've read that if you use non-Aero themes you can, but so far i haven't been able to [ever try to follow a tutorial when what you see on-screen differs from what the tutorial claims you'll see?], and, anyway, i prefer Aero's effects.
Yes, i know about how some themes are supposed to be tweakable but i've never been able to make that route work. And i've seen others comment on the general flakiness of that approach, so it's not just my incompetence.
There are also two little utilities [one, AvefoldersBG i think, and i forget the name of other], but neither takes [both lose settings, work erratically].
I'd be very grateful if anybody can help. Thanks for your time.
