Toolbar resolution/color??

[Brett]

The icons on my Office Shortcut Bar (XP) are extremely
low-res, blocky, and seem to use about 8 colors. Some
icons are so choppy & discolored that they aren't
recognizable. I'm using small icons, but when I select
large, the blockiness is even more pronounced.

Is there a setting somewhere to increase the
colors/resolution on the toolbar? My desktop icons and
all start menu icons, which are the same size, look fine
(sharp & in color).

Thank you!

This is a consequence of the way the software which manages the shortcut
bar is programmed. Microsoft has decided to abandon the shortcut bar
rather than enhance it. Your choices are to live with it the way it is or
to use something else instead.
