Change the color and looks of desktop icons fonts

[bigpup]

To change the color of the fonts on the desktop icons:
Right click on a icon.
From right click menu select:
Rox-filer->options->pinboard->appearance

Font color:
Change the foreground color to what you like.
Select OK when you are done.

Other options:
Font shadow and color of the shadow.
Use a custom font

Note:
Background option is not active.
Background is controlled by the desktop wallpaper program. (JWM Desk Manager->Desktop->Background)
However, the wallpaper program is actually changing the background image used by the pinboard.
If you right click on any desktop icon, select "Backdrop" and clear the image. Should give you a monochrome background with all icons intact. Then right click again and select ROX-Filer -> Options -> Pinboard -> Background to change the background color.

I just customized my desktop icons by changing them in mtpaint to grayscale. I saved them in usr/share/midi-icons under the names of the originals and kept the originals with an extra suffix. I'm wondering if I should eventually create a theme, and where would I find the process for doing it. As far I can tell, the theme loads the icons into /midi-icons and then a /bin/process folder reads them or something to that effect.
