It doesn't look so great on mine because I have a very dark wallpaper, but you can get the idea!

Here it is w/ the normal opacity:

Font change is actually possible. Upload a new font to the appropriate folder and just a few changes in the correct css would do the trick.

Old thread that explained how this is done (albeit, there are much easier techniques now).

Thanks but please stop posting that thread!
If you manually edit the .css it WILL screw up any .patch that touches that file. Not to mention cause the patches you installed prior to not uninstall correctly.

Not trying to be an A S S but really that kind of bad advice is what makes my (and other devs) life a pain in the a s s when patches dont install correctly because somebody thinks its ok to mess around where they dont need to be messing!

Thats why we have PreWare and WOSQI.

Just say no to manual editing! lol

If you wouldnt mind deleting that link before somebody actually does it!

2sslow, is it possible to change the font? I'm mulling a change and will make a theme using it. If If I could make it red and a blood font.... That would rock!

You should be able to open the patch w/ notepad and edit the color:black; line to say color: # hex key for the color you want;

then install using WOSQI.

If you would rather give me the code you want and Ill modify the patch for you!

I gave you a list of my patches.. Any update?

Member: 2sslow

I have not had a problem w/ any of those.. My advice is to remove/reboot 1 at a time and try to reinstall.

hey man, with this patch, would it be possible to open it and change the font color manually then re-apply the patch?

[CODE]Originally Posted by the2ndflood
Hey,

Would you be able to create a custom patch that would make the Launcher-Text green; instead of white? I will donate whatever amount you would think is fair.

Thanks,
Rss[/CODE]

I appreciate any donation you can afford.....as little or as much as you feel comfortable with.

I do this for fun not for money...The only reason I put the donation link up is I had to replace my laptop a few weeks ago due to a screen problem, and let me tell you these things dont get cheaper...lol.

Edited first post!
