How To

Tuesday, March 11, 2008 by Evi1Vin | Discussion: Skinning

Hi All:

I'm new to skinning and have just DL'ed the darker GT3 Window Blinds. I luv everything about it except whenever i go to a site with a field with a white background, the text is such a light grey i can barely read it. Is there anyway to change the skin text colour for surfing? Everything looks very cool on my desktop, so don't really want to change that!

I think that's gotta be done using SkinStudio

The easiest way would be to use SkinStudio, as it is easier to find and edit the element you're after.

The harder way would be to edit the files direactly, using Notepad or some such. This will require some digging and you'd need to know what to look for.

I believe that changing the colour that text will also affect other areas of the skin.
