Hello All,

As the subject line says, how can one change the color of the font that
is used in the gnome panels (top and bottom)? I want to use a dark
background image for the panels, but the letters become unreadable.

Regards,

Everything ends badly. Otherwise it wouldn't end.

Hi Sridhar,

In gnome-terminal go Edit => Current Profile and click on the 'Colors'
tab uncheck the 'Use colors from system theme' and change your text
colour there.

Dale

Hi Sridhar,

Damn I should have read the email better (was bit sleepy) iirc to
change the font colors for the panels you'll have to look at the gtkrc
file for the theme you are using. example for me it
'~/.themes/Murrina-Leopard-Mod/gtk-2.0/gtkrc'

Regards
Dale

No problem. Found the answer on ubuntu user list. Also, found a program
gnome-color-chooser which just does many things.
