Problem w/ text color in dark skins

Wednesday, April 20, 2005 by Zarathustra0287 | Discussion: WindowBlinds

Hi, I really like alot of the dark skins, but alot of the text, for example, in firefox tabs is also dark, and unreadable. How can I change this to a more readable color?

Dark skins are impossible to do and have 100% compatibility. Too many programs (like Firefox) use hard-coded text colors. Although, if Firefox is your main concern, you can switch to a skin that uses it's own tabs and colors, like Whitehart. It's a work-around...not a fix...until Windows changes the way font colors are handled, dark skins will always get these problems...

You could provide your own Firefox theme for people to download. Worse with other programs though.
