Skin the Start Menu "All Programs Section" PLEASE !!!!!!

Wednesday, May 14, 2003 by SelfExiled | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

When is this going to happen. All these updates and the best thing yet to be fixed hasn't been addressed. Please allow skinning of the 'All Programs" button in the XP start menu. I would love to see that happen. All these great skins seem incomplete. How many people agree with me? >

I have seen a few skins with that skinned actually. I think Essorant did it with his first wb4 skin...not sure, but I know I've seen it skinned.

Great skins like Cooper Deck II, Corona, just to name a very few. Great skins but that "All Programs" sections stands out like a sore thumb. >

Actually, I think its just the mouse over that can't be skinned. I saw one yesterday that had the All Programs skinned but the mouse over went flat and ugly. Wahahahaha

It cannot be done....yet. Hopefully one day we will be able to. You can skin the background of it, and the arrow, but the mouseover will always be a color. Blackcomb does one of the better jobs of dealing with the problem, but when you highlite it, that's still just a color, not an image.

I know, Ive heard from artists who sadly say it can't be done when some mean person puts down their skin because the All Programs section looks so bad compared to the rest of their skin. Isn't this just a matter of one's and zero's. We are not trying to find the cure for Cancer. Sheesh.

A67, to change that color, look under miscellanious, colors, menu, Menu Highlighted text (XP Only), that's the one you want
