Techie Troubles: Fixing a Light Blue Taskbar on Windows

[pctharper]

Today must be the day of messing up computers!

I'm actually not sure what happened. My taskbar (I think thats what its called-where all my open programs/windows are at the bottom of the screen) has suddenly turned a very light shade of blue. That mixed with the white writing that describes the open window, its very hard to read what each one is. Can anyone help me make the taskbar darker so its easier to see the wording?

If you right-click on your desktop and go to Properties, you should be able to find a way to adjust the colors of pretty much everything on your computer.

Speaking of "techie" help, I know this is probably a silly question; but, I can not find the place here on Chef Success to start a new thread. Could someone please tell me where you go in the site to start a new thread and topic? Thank you so much for your help!
