Okay. Here is the deal. If anyone has any better ideas than this, could ya let me know. I am having some problems with this one.

Whats happening is I can get the text on the button, yadda yadda, but it looks like its trying to pull a 'majik pink' on me as the text shadow. I have looked up and down in the docs and cant seem to find anything on this. Also I dont see anyway to set the:

so that the text doesnt overlap onto the icons.

I see where it says that this version is missing the font shadow, but is there another more basic taskbar finalized with this, and is the text overlapping onto the icon a problem with all of them.
I was thinking I could have done something like

or something that would shift it over out of the way of my icons. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Once again, I am only a newb, bout 3 weeks old, so dont go so harsh on me :)

Thank YA

i think this version of taskbar3 is buggy in general, so maybe try the latest version of taskbar-0.306

::bows down::

So much better. I thought I was goin crazy with the other one. It was crashing my LS.. Couldnt find info on certain things. I went with taskbar3-0.306_alpha-3 and it is a bazillion times better. Thank Ya
