Hi, I am using windows Vista Ultimate 32 Bit
Can someone please tell me how to make my desktop icons transparent??, I mean see through, like glass?.. I went to the visaul effects, and ticked the drop down shadows for desktop icons, but that made no difference?
Maybe, there is some free vista transparent icon packs that can be downloaded?? ICO Packs?.. Can someone please help me with this??

Regards
