Nice tutorial, but I would use this resource editor: melander.dk/reseditor/ instead of Resource Hacker. You can replace the images using drag and drop.
For those asking about how to change the font color, I made a quick explanation here: comments.deviantart.com/1/3661… is not easy though...

I never did. I'd check with 1davi and see if he's got any idea. He used to do a whole lot of iTunes stuff but don't know if he still does! Sorry!

Hey 1 question, would you happen to know how to change the font colors?

I've kinda lost my flair for customization so haven't really kept up with what's going on here on dA. Last I knew it was a no, but here, :1davi.deviantart.com/art/Dusk-… it looks as though davi's managed to change the colours. If you have any questions, he's your man. He's top of this kind of thing!
Good luck!
