Windows 8 Dev Prev
Customization in start menu
Hi !
Is it possible til change the picture in the tiles in the windows 8 start menu? I am able to change the colors to the tiles but not the whole picture.
I see that tiles like piano, paintplay, chess, internet explorer etc has their own special designed tiles. I have many programs that I frequently use. I've also pinned them to the startmenu but they have this boring design with one system color and a little program's icon in the bottom.
Is it possible to design my own tile picture and make it as default for a specific program in the startmenu?
Sorry if this question has already been answered but I've no clue where to find my answers...
