The only system colour I modify is I make the desktop colour the sorta "main theme colour", eg in the Xeno theme, it's that pink colour. (SYSCOL-1)
Just a small hint for all discussing about VS: This topic is labeled "foobar2000 v0.9 appearance" and not "Windows visual styles appearance" ;)
Well it's directly relevant to foobar configuration, as terrestrial's SYSCOL-## allows you to reference system colours...
And yeah, as terrestrial told me in PM, where you'd usualyl put a colour like 255-128-255, you can instead put SYSCOL-1 (or any number)
Here is a key to what the numbers mean:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default....getsyscolor.aspSo for instance, if you did: $drawrect(0,0,0,0,brushcolor-SYSCOL-1 pencolor-null) it would do a box with a background that is the same as your desktop colour.
I find getting good colours out of it is trial and error really.
This is my config:

Kinda botched and probably has bugs but meh, do what you will with it.
