Default "Backround" of icon text is a solid color, not transparent...
Hey everyone,

Below is a screenshot of my desktop. In the corner you can see that there is a solid color behind the recycle bin text. Now i fiddling around with the colors and now I cant get it back to transparent under the -->right click>properties>appearence>advanced>desktop. I can only change them to solid colors. This is REALLY annoying so any help would be nice.

Why did you make it green? Take the green away and try white or deafult.
