so i recently dl and installed simplicity as my theme. But the quicklaunch icons (on the second bar) are not the things i want as quicklaunch (something like that) so i want to change the icons on my quicklaunch bar that sort of sounds confusing but i just need to know how to get to the area where you can change your quicklaunch bar for simplicity

well.. $GfxEditor$ opens your graphics editor that you defined when you installed litestep. look in $personaldir$evars.rc to find those definitions.

Ok i have a problem with Quicklaunch icons too! I recently installed litestep the newest version it came with austerity, but i personally think austerity is horrible. But I love simplicity so i installed it, now what my problems is that the quick launch bar starts out as a text quick launch but i would like to switch it to graphical icons quick launch and i know you are suppose to use [left click + shift] and change it but it doesn't work for me even with a recycle. seems like a bug to me. HELP PLEASE!
