Vista Appearance Settings

Hi:

Are there settings within Vista Home Premium similar to those formerly in
XP i.e. Display Properties>Appearance Tab> and under Item where you could
change Desktop, Icon, and Menu settings?

If so, please tell me how to locate each that I have listed above.

Thanks,

ColTom2

Right click the Desktop > click Personalize > Windows Color and Appearance >
Open classic appearance properties for more color options

Also, options for changing icons are available under 'Tasks' > Change
