1) I'm using Mr GRiM's Concept Red Design as a template for my own theme and I can't find where to change the bottom image in explorer where the details of a file are presented.
2) Also in the directory bar i can't find where to change the colour of the arrows.
3) Finally there is some red text in explorer that turns grey when I test the build, however when I save and use it, it remains red.

1 is ( Explorer & Shell > Explorer > Preview Pane > 1 > <1> -- Edit the image)
2 is ( Explorer and shell > explorer > menubar > background -edit the image )
3 is ( Explorer & Shell > Explorer > CommandModule > <1> - edit the image here)

For the 3rd one, i think you have to edit the shellstyle of that theme

Thanks for the help the preview pane is better now, however i have already editted the background images for the menu bar and command module, i am just having trouble adjusting the red arrows to a different colour and the red text, i realise it's meant to be clear in the shadow due to the dark shadow colour but i wish to change the actual text colour from red to white i cannot find the property that allows me to do that. :)

Also this is just a quick preview of what i've done so far, thoughts?60029

I designed the start menu, taskbar and rainmeter skin although the rainmeter skin still needs a little work :)

AS mentioned above you will need to edit the shellstyle.dll for that theme, you may be better off using a shellstyle from another theme or the default Aero shellstyle.dll
