Skin Outlook

Monday, July 27, 2009 by OldMsgt | Discussion: Tutorials

Is there anywa or can anyone create a skin that changes OUTLOOK specificaly 2007 I hate the blue color of outlook.

Is it even possible what obout the same for IE 7 and 8 thile bar skins so do buttons but the rest is that same old windows light blue.

I was thinking of someway that Outlook and IE could be skinned and such as Firefox themes. I primarly ise FF as my browser.

I don't think it's skinnable at the present, but I've found a couple of sites that describe how to change the color.

I found it so ugly and not what I'm used to, that I reverted back to 2003.

blah Says:

  1. Alternatively:
    1) Open a new appointment in Outlook
    2) CLick the giant button at the top left
    3) Select Editor Options
    4) Choose Color Scheme.

 

That worked for me.  Yay!
