Desktop Icon Text

[Ubuntu Refugee]

I have PCLinux  KDE on my desktop machine and it works great.
Recently became the proud owner of an Asus netbook with something called Windows 7 on.
So that got uninstalled and I tried KDE on the netbook.
Worked fine but a bit sluggish.
So I have installed LXDE and and it is running much much quicker, and a damn sight cooler too.
I have had a few installation problems but I have resolved most of them.
However I could do with a bit of advice on this one.
I have Gimped a neat light gray wallpaper with the LXDE logo on in black with the bird in chrome.
I changed the desktop icons text to black to match, but it insists on having text shadows which look awful whichever colour I choose for them.
For the life of me I cannot figure out how to make it accept the icon text with no shadows.
Help!

...Of course, when you get it all pretty, you'll share it?  

And welcome. LXDE rocks netbooks! (EeePC701 4G, fully installed to an SD here)

After many hours I gave up with the shadows.
Apparently it is impossible to remove them in LXDE, and so I gave up.
Uninstalled LXDE and installed XFCE instead.
It also goes like the wind compared to KDE.
In fact I am so chuffed with it that I may put it on my desktop as well.
In the meantime here is the LXDE wallpaper.

Nice! Don't stop at one though.
