Yeah, I know you can't please everyone. ;/ Like I said, it's my personal preference and was hoping there was a way to revert the look. Not that the look is a deal breaker, I'll definitely continue to use it.
And yes, I'm still on XP. The new program icon did give me the impression that it belonged more in Vista/7, either way I doubt I'd still like it were I on those system. Also, I was talking about the colored images you swapped in, I was just being overly descriptive. Anyhow, I've said my piece.
