WB and icons on desktop

they are for some reason taking up less space

I am not sure how it happened but the icons are now closer to each other. It first started in my control panel and then on my desktop. Each icon, as some of you may know, have a small space between each one. For some reason my icons are right next to each other with the icons touching the title of the icon. now can anyone help me restore it back to normal. i cant stand it looking like this

Dom99,

There are 2 options that I know of.

1 - Unload WindowBlinds > return Windows to default theme using Display Properties dialog (if you run XP, just select "Windows XP" from the drop down list under the "Theme" tab, then click "Apply") - this should reset all defaults for icons. Then reapply the WindowBlind of your choice. This is the method I would recommend if you are running XP.

2 - use "Display Properties > Appearance tab > Advanced button > select Icon Spacing from "Item" list > set to "Size: 43" for both horizontal and vertical spacing (these are the default values).

Note - Display Properties is found by right-clicking an empty spot on desktop and selecting Properties.

I hope this helps.
