Aqua-Soft ForumsJust installed windowsblinds, and now when I goto save a file, in the save dialogue I get a grey box around the location icons like this:
Is there any way to replace these? with the same icons, just without the grey box...
Running win2kpro 
[help] Changing These Icons:
i think its because w2k doesnt do transparency right? help me out here people who know what theyre talking about. topic edited*
It's the skin... choose one with the same gray color and you won't see the boxes. 
hehe. Seriously, I think Sone's right.
2K does transparency fine, I think the icons just actually have a grey box round them, as M$ weren't expecting anyone to change the button colours 
So is it not possible to change them?
Uhm... I may be mistaken, but I thought that though Win2k handles transparency quite well this is not true for icons. That means, you can only have 24-bit icons w/o alpha blending.
Hence the shadow.
But then again, I might be wrong...
Have fun,

But if you put an icon on your desktop it has transparency - so why is it different for this?
No idea, really.
To find a bit abou tthat matter, I suggest you extract a few icons (from your desktop) with ResHacker from shell32.dll and examine them for colour depth. Especially the difference between multiple resolutions would be interesting.
That should clear a few things in case you find something.
Have fun,
