UPDATED - 03/03/2008
~downtheory

I have recieved a lot of questions on how to change the start menu text
colors. So in this update I`ll tell you how to do it.

And that desktop background in the new preview screen, is not included in this
archive.

Before getting started, I apologize for any inconvenience this may have cause anyone.
I should have included instructions in the first place.


----------------------------------------
How to use this theme:
First, MAKE SURE YOU HAVE PATCHED YOUR UXTHEME FILES
^(not shouting, this is just so it will stand out) :)

After downloading X-Aero
Open the .rar archive (or right-mouse click and hit "extract here").
When this is done, select both "X-AeRo.theme" and the folder labeled "X-AeRo".
Drag both of these to: "C:\Windows\Resources\Themes"
Now for the final step, just apply the theme.
All done.


----------------------------------------
How to change start menu colors:

Inside of the X-Aero archive I`ve included 6 start menu text colors.
Pick the one that you want to use.
After doing so just rename the file to "X-Aero" (without the apostrophe).
Drag and drop the newly renamed file into:
"C:\Windows\Resources\Themes\X-AeRo"
or whichever directory you use for themes.
And thats it, your done!
Now just re-apply the theme and voila, new start menu text colors.
Enjoy! :)

And A BIG thank you to everyone who has helped me get familiar not only with dA, but with creating .msstyles themes, and also for making my stay here as cool as possible.

And thank you to everyone who has viewed / downloaded / and commented all of my work so far. :)

I know why Microsoft didn't make the start menu very transparent... THEY HAVE NO SHADOWED TEXT!!!!
(they're stupid for not adding shadowed text to the taskbar/start menu)
