font color on desktop

If you don't want to have a color block around your text, your only option
is the white text. If you don't mind the color block, then right click on my
computer, properties, advanced, under performance hit settings, and uncheck
the second to last option to use drop shadows. Now, the font will be white
if the color of the desktop is dark and black if the color of the desktop is
light.
