    I take it the only way to figure out if you can get away with a color change is trial and error? Hello, virtual machine!

    Yeah, those are for the progress bar in the taskbar icon.
    EAsily missed, cause they're scaled down considerably.

    Works great. Like the blue way better than the green.

    you need to modify images 1018 and 1021 in aero.msstyles to change the color of the progress bar in explorer taskbar icon.

    Made myself a very bright blue one :D

    In fact, my desktop and explorer folders are mainly blue.

    I've got the black colour bars now. Had to make the progressbar in the taskbar blue, cause it was invisible due to the fact that my taskbar is darky grey. Don't know about other colours though.

    Seems like something went wrong there, cause they still seem blue to me :confused:

    The only successfull colours I know about are blue and black though. I've heard about ppl trying yellow and even pink, and it looked like s**t.
    I'd advise to stick to blue or black for now, untill someone cracks this colour issue...

    Hope this helps.

    I just wanted "darker than the blue in this thread" blue, so they are supposed to look blue.

    s

    Where did you get those ? I would really like to have them too...

    As for the images, they're all there. 1018 and 1021 too, so they should look blue indeed...If I somehow knew where to get them, I could check it out for you. Maybe find a solution ?

    cheers
