The only interim solution I've figured out is to work on a 12x10 that has a dark background and resize the 'canvas' up to 16x12.

"I'm a software developer and I KNOW I can set up XP to run like crap". Guess you failed your course if that's all you can do with XP. I'm not a fan of Microcrud or Mr Gates, however, from time to time one should remember that MS can claim some credit for taking the desktop PC user out of the geek category and giving the average person a relatively user friendly OS. <img src="http://images.star
