Drop shadows in Windows ME?

[Th3_uN1Qu3]

I have just installed Windows ME as 98SE and my laptop didn't quite get along and i don't want to go back to XP on this thing.

I have Uberskin and it skins the bars and buttons really nicely, but the icons still have those solid backgrounds. RP7 could make icon background transparent in 98SE, so any tips on how could i get this done in ME?

Tried that "Disappear" thingy, made my icon backgrounds gray not transparent. And i don't want to bother with Stardock software, as their latest stuff isn't compatible with 9x/Me anyway.

I remember MicroAngelo from my win9x days when i was like 8 or 9, that used to work. I'll give it a spin again, thanks.

No, since you're asking about UberSkin, you should ask in UberSkin thread.

You can make labels transparent:

However, 32-bit icons with drop shadows are not available in current version.

Thanks Tihiy, that worked perfectly. I didn't know Uberskin could do it, that's why i posted a separate topic. Anyway, thanks a lot for your help, and i'll use search next time...
