noguru Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 (edited) hmm... thats retarded isn't it? stupid microsoft lol, oh well. ill keep it grey for now anyway.-brianWell, I guess that Microsoft choose not to implement certain functions for Win98se cause they need extra programming. That costs money and since nobody is buying win98 anymore it can't be earned back. Perhaps disappointing for us Win98se users but certainly not retarded!All you can do is to choose a nice colorfull skin. It will help your grey problem, that color is indeed ugly!I use the corporate skin. It's simple and nice blue Edited April 29, 2006 by noguru Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prx984 Posted April 29, 2006 Author Share Posted April 29, 2006 lol ok maybe it isn't retarded but they should have at least made the default color what XP's was. wouldn't you agree?-brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miko Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 (edited) if you download wmp10, extract it with say 7-zip (or something)you can use the 9 series default skin (9SeriesD.wmz) in wmp9 on 98se in skin mode.this skin has the darker blue XP coloring.the only other difference internally between it and the 9x default one is the copyright info.btw one of the best skins for wmp9 on 98se imo is this one -http://theskinsfactory.com/sfadmin/files/W...r%20Edition.wmzwhich has two colour modes, is 'official microsoft' and despite the name is aimed at 98se (xp gets the 'enhanced' version of this same skin)a lot of wmp9 skins have some problems with transparency on 98se in my experience.
