Re: color at the top of my Today screen override background

I don't have a PC (only a Mac) so it won't be trivial for me to run this, but I'll give it a shot. In the meantime, is there a simple explanation of what a .tsk file is? I copied a .tsk file to /Windows when I set up the PPC; this .tsk file used to (in WM5) give me a uniform image (the yellow desert scene I attached to my initial post) all over the Today screen. Now (in WM6), the top and bottom bars are overridden. Since it's the same .tsk file in both cases, can you tell me where this decision (whether to color over the top and bottom bands of the screen with green) is made? Thanks,

Mike
