Okay so am terrible with words at times! Yes panel is the name in KDE. I got so used to all the other desktops calling it task bar, I automatically do the same. Just sticking with Oxygen to do all this. Been searchin high and low to find that main file about that text coloring, but no dice yet. Been thinking about modifying one of the stock themes to see it it will adopt those colors. Am seeing they use xml so might be able to get one going like that!!! Windows is one beast that is hard to tame! Every time I get on there something crazy happens! Windows and I are like fire and ice, I am the ice and it just keeps burning me! No is not that terrible, but some things on there are annoying so I do my best to stay with Linux! Yeah, I got some crazy hijacker again!!! I think I must have accidentally downloaded some piece of junk that changed start page! Happens about every every 5 times I get on it! Have to kick myself with using Explorer and remember to use Arora as to knock the baloney off. Usually since I just get on there for a little bit, I click explorer without thinking! Is a deadly game that browser! Still, least when go to use it, is tolerable now. I just can not take those stock colors, so bland and ugly! Is weird as I notice so many people on Gnome-looks loving that terrible look! Sorry, I just do not really see the artwork there! So many others have done some magical things with colors and to see their themes fall to the wayside for something so ugly is a shame! Am happy when I come on here, people here have great taste! Always good looking stuff! Only way I got any color to stick on Windows was to use classic! All else left me with trash! Forgot to mention, a few posts ago you mentioned about Seattle. I never got that far, but did live in Moscow, Idaho for a bit. You are in some beautiful country out there!!!! Sure is nice here too, but have to admit at times summer's humidity is terrible! Anyway, did look up this text problem with KDE am having and notice is the same for others. Apparently, I may not be the only yoyo that likes text coloring that is not white or black! Always say, when there is a will, is a way! 3 months ago could not make heads or tails with gnome themes, is just a few days on KDE so think am actually moving a little quicker than I did on gnome! Soon as I figure something, will be the first to let all know! Might not be millions of us that like the colors, but to me even if there is just a few of us, let's get it there!!!! To me it kind of reminds me of Black and White TV when I was a kid! I guess since I had one, I never want that effect again! So to me a computer should show color if it is capable, so let it show!!!!! Will check those links after this. Still thanks for being here Xan!!! Always great you are here!
