    Post start button colors?

    How do you change the start button colors in XP?
    I can change the task bar colors but the Start buttn stays green with the windows logo.
    I hope that someday we will be able to put away our fears and prejudices and just laugh at people.

    that program doesn't allow you to change just the start button.

    I want to make my own color button not use a theme.

    acutally you can download tgtsoft's other program style builder and you can actually make your own theme. or you can simply edit the start button, i.e change the background of the button.

    kinda complicated but it is easy once you get the hang of it...

    and for your newbies with XP, a great site to get sweet themes for your XP MACHINE try
    <a href="http://www.themexp.org" target="_blank">Theme XP.org</a>
    also has some sweet backgrounds

    To change just the color of the start button you can go desktop-->properties--->apperance--->windows and buttons and change it to classic style. That gives the ability to change the start button, desktop or taskbar colors like 98 had.
