I'm currently using V2 with the "White" theme, everything works fine except the "timeloader" (the slideshow countdown) becomes unseen in the white background.

I'm wondering if there's any way to change it's color?

Here is the sample:

It is set to inherit the "foreground_color" so it would usually display well on the "background_color".

In your case, it seems you have created a background image that does not blend well with the background_color, and therefore does not give a good contrast with the foreground color. Here are some basic rules when customizing your theme:

1. Make sure you background image has a similar brightness/tone as your background_color. This will make the foreground_color, background_color and background image work well with eachother.

2. If you are changing the background image from something dark to something light(like it seems you are doing), you should start of from another template(f.eks the template called "white" that originally has a light background)

Hi Karl,

I've tried to change the foreground and background color,
But it doesn't seen to change the color of the little countdown clock.

I believe the it is set to white (R:255 G:255 B:255) in the FLA file, the white clock does look great and obvious with dark background, but when it comes to light background, the clock almost disappear

Sweet mother of Jesus, you are right!

I'll have this fixed for next release - It will inherit the foreground_color, so it blends nicely with the background.

Wow~that's great!
thanks Karl !
Waiting for the next release!
