Not cool at all. Thanks Rebecca, but that didn't work either! All that did was change the color block behind the text to something else.

 

I am emailing my IT department. It might be silly, but whatever, i am on this computer more then I am doig anything else in this world, so it shouldn't be so annoying!

Thanks, Joanne, I tried that one as well, but I don't see the option for "enable web content on desktop".

 

I will wait to see if you can figure it out at home before asking my IT. They aren't very quick getting back to us anyway...

 

Thanks everyone for your suggestions!!!

Lucky for you I just started my IT program and the course I'm doing right now SHOULD be called "The dumbest shit you never cared about for Windows XP" lol You have Active Desktop enabled by the looks of things. If you right click, go to properties, and then go into the Desktop tab and Customize desktop then click on web and uncheck whatever is checked off there, then that SHOULD cure it. If not, then I'll ask my prof, he'll know ^_^

How about this... go to control panel -> display -> themes -> select windows xp from the list... then you have to go back to change your desktop background (and if you want orange for the background behind the pic just change the color there). Changing the theme seems to erase all changes.

Also thanks to everyone else that tried to help me! I have no clue how I changed that setting, but my desktop is much prettier now.

      Cabo Azul Wedding Cost / Review

      By Emmma · Posted

      Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!

      Wedding venues and wedding planner in Costa Rica

      By KristinaH · Posted

      Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
