Help needed to create desktop icon shadows please

September 29, 2003 11:15 AM from

I'm a new user so i'm probably missing something obvious I've been trying to create the deep shadow effect on desktop icons that i've seen in a few posts in 'September Desktops' thread. I've tried everything i can think of with WindowFX, Windowblinds and IconPackager but no luck.
Any help greatly appreciated

What you are looking at is IconX, which is a part of DesktopX. IconX also has a nice zoom feature on mouseover.
