Hi All,
I have Vista 64bit Ultimate edition. I have Aero theme on my system which as you all might know displays any window with White background and Black letters. I was thinking of how to switch those colors (White letters and Black background while keeping the same aero theme). Basically changing white to black and black to white in whatever window is what I want.
I saw this kind of thing in a recent movie "Untracable" and felt it was cool and wanted to try it and see.
