I have windows XP sp2

I installed Tweak UI and after reviewing all the options I clicked Apply.

Now all my icons are being displayed in 8 colors or something. This is ugly and annoying. I tried repairing the icons through its "repair icons" option but to n effect. Please help.

Lesson of the day: TweakUI is a buggy pos software that will always cause problems with your icons.

Now try rebooting your machine and see if that helps.

You're using a 16 bit/65,536 color display? Dude graphics won't look right at that setting.
