Hello,

^_^ Nice to meet you. I'm still pretty new with litestep so I'm very sorry if I bother anyone with my questions.

I've downloaded a wonderful theme that I absolutely love, but some of the things didn't seem to work for me. A few of the systray icons seem to disappear when recycling when I used the grdtray3 so I changed the module (by copy and pasting from another theme) to systray2. I managed to get it placed where I want and made the background transparent, but for some reason there is some pink surrounding a few icons that shouldn't be there. Is there anyway to fix this?

Also, I'm having another transparency problem with the tasks.dll module. Nothing was changed on the script by me. The color and font and everything seem fine, but when the module is set for transparent there is a pink outline for all the tasktitles.

I'm currently using Windows XP professional and messing with the minimal theme serverplan that I downloaded from this site. ^_^ I hope this was enough information.

Thank you very much in advance for you're kind consideration and the bother. I would really use to keep this theme!

This is caused by anti-aliased icons not being truely MagicPink, yet close enough for explorer to think it is. I am pretty sure newer versions of both modules correct the issue.

Thank you so much for the suggestion! I'm really grateful that someone replied.

...But I pasted in the newest versions of tasks.dll and systray2.dll and it still didn't get rid of the pink. Could this have something to do with my settings?

I managed to fix the tasks pink problem by changing the affect of text from smooth to standard. >_< But for some reason, I still can't get rid of the systray problem...any suggestions, please?

I had the same problem w/ pink systray2 icons. This fixed it for me. You probably already have the first line but not the 2nd.
