Need image numbers for left pane Control Panel & 3D pop-up backgrounds

I'm cutting my teeth on my first mod of a aero.msstyles dark theme, WP7 vs Mango by deviant art user ~oliver182 who no longer supports it , which as you can see is 95% finished on my Windows 7 64-bit screen grab below.
I just need help identifying image numbers which I cannot see listed in Wikipedia, namely the ones in my thread title which you can see have a white background with dark fonts text which I obviously need to invert to match them with the rest of the dark background/lighter font text theme.

Can anybody point me to a resource or URL that lists/can help me identify every aero.msstyles image number?

I'm currently using the trial version of "Restorator 2007" but apart from opening every single image in the image and stream folder I can't see how I can pinpoint the correct image for the incorrect white background/dark fonts for the "left pane Control Panel & 3D pop-up backgrounds and fonts etc"?

Any help much appreciated

The left Control panel image is bitmap #s 632 and 633 in shell32.dll in both C:\Windows\System32 and C:\Windows\SysWOW64.

Post a link to the theme and I can look at it and give you the image #s for the popup on the taskbar.

Most custom theme on deviant art and other places are made with Ave's Windows7 Style Builder and it changes the image #s so it's hard to have a list of #s, the only way I know how to change test color is with Windows Style Builder.

All the other is fill colors and need Windows Styles Builder to change.

Many thanks, I'm so grateful :D

I've found some dark image files 200 x 551 for the control panel left pane images, 632 633, from your help to replace my current shell32.dll. Just wondering if I use Restorator 2007 to replace and save can I replace those two files live whilst STILL using the shell32.dll in System32 & sysWOW64?

Make a http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/697-system-restore-point-create.html first.

Yes use Restorator to do it, get copies of the .dlls and put the in folders(don't mix them up) on your desktop to edit.

To properly change a system file you need to take ownership give yourself permission and rename the old file and then copy in the new ones, look at Post #6 of this thread will tell you how to do it http://www.sevenforums.com/customization/179502-basic-networking-information.html#post1525656
Then restart the PC.
