problem is, i'm not in-game... so i don't have the same permissions. i was trying for the mute look you'd see on TVs, but the transparent windows don't work as advertised... and you end up having the text just get removed unless you constantly paint it.

as for performance... i didn't think a single word being drawn on the screens would cause that must overhead. (although i think it's drawing it 40 times per second).

as for changign a color or a try icon.. what about those people using maximizer? that don't see the tray nor do they see the frame (no color)

if anyone has a better solution, i'm all ears
Indeed my solution was more of a personal solution...

As a more varied one, is it possible just to have an always on top window about 100 * 50 px or something which we can drag around and it just goes green / red or something along those lines. I don't know about most people but I don't need the mute to be on every window, one place is plenty.
