Hi!
I have tried everything to get rid of the Desktop transparent background around the icons. by this tip: but for Windows XP, using desktop wallpaper, you'll still see a border around your icon captions the same color as your solid background. Here's how to remove that border so that the text looks like it's written right on your wallpaper:

Open System Properties in Control Panel, choose the Advanced tab, and click Settings in the Performance section. Turn on the Use drop shadows for icon labels on the desktop option, and click Ok. DID NOT WORK. Also tried the Iconoid application but that doesn't work. Anyone have any idea for the Vista OS?
