Is ther a way to make the icons tranparent (like behind the writting) so that the desktop background color doesn't show up, only the wall paper does??

Obtain and install the Disappear utility (4 kb) ( ftp://ftp.creativelement.com/pub/win95ann/disappr.zip ). You'll need VB40032.DLL (381 kb) ( ftp://ftp.creativelement.com/pub/win95ann/vb4rt.zip ) if you don't already have it.

WindowsFX can make the icon semi-transparent and the text fully transparent. It can also remove the icon description so only the name of the icon shows. Great stuff!
