Open the .inc file with Notepad, and scroll down to where it says this: Color1=255, 255, 255, 255 Color2=255, 255, 255, 160 Color3=255, 255, 255, 80 If you want to use another colour other than White, Grey or blackish gray, then add "Color4=(Red0-255), (Green0-255), (Blue0-255), (Brightness0-255)" Otherwise, you do not need to modify anything in this file. Next, right click on the TL rainmeter things on your desktop and right click edit (or you can go through the folders to On Air/Upcoming Events.ini. Anywhere in the file it says "#Color2#", replace that with either "#Color1#" for white, "#Color3# " for blackish grey and "#Color4#" for your custom colour. Do this the same with the other one, and all your text is in the different colour. | ||

It combines really well with Blue Vision, if you happen to use that. Enigma also has a rather awesome semi-opaque sidebar you can put behind your skins. | ||

I personally mix and match anyways, to get what looks best to me, so I have some enigma up with my BlueVision. Like I said, that semi-opaque sidebar is really nice to stick behind minimalist skins to help make them more visible against wallpaper without breaking color scheme. By the way, I love the TL skin, it's kept me from missing events quite a few times while i was doing other stuff. | ||

I'm in the enigma file but I can't find the Color1=255, 255, 255, 255 Color2=255, 255, 255, 160 Color3=255, 255, 255, 80 and it is changing the colors of the TL skins as well. Wat do? | ||
