Topic says it. How are the shadows on the contact list windows drawn? Can they be altered or does it just use the default shadow for OS X? On a transparent window, the default shadowing is too much for the text that it doesn't really look all that good. I wanted to fudge around with the shadow if I could.

Or: I notice on the color contact list settings you can add a shadow for the group names. This is the perfect amount of Shadow, I think, and would like that same shadow on all the text in the window. If I could somehow enable that, I would also be happy.

Is this something I have to muck with in the source? Or is there a way to do this already by altering the plist files of my contact list theme?

(fyi, I'm using svn source built from a day ago, or so)

Definitely a source level change as I suspect (having not looked) that the shadows are using NSShadow which provides said functionality. Check the docs (Apple's in Xcode) for ways to modify

I too would love to be able to have text shadows for all of the contact name as well as the group names. It would make the contact names pop out more.
