Really helpful. Thanks Phill

Updated the post with a small tool to generate the hex colors for the LCD EQ

useful!

Thanks so much for this!

I used the LCD EQ colors tool, and used Hex Fiend to make the changes, which I can confirm are changed in the resource.   However, even after restarting the application and the computer, it's not changing the colors.

Is there a step I am missing?

Ok - thanks.   The thing is your directions were so clear, and even when I went back in to double check my work, it seemed exactly right... hehe    I will start with a fresh copy and see what happens.   I thought maybe the OS may have cached it or something.

Thanks.

Ahhh - I wonder if I just replaced the intel ones (which is why I don't see them).   Thanks for the tip - I will try as soon as I get home!

Well, duh! Why didn't I think of that It's a universal binary so there have to be two values for each color

I'll update the guide as soon as I have some time.

Have you had any success changing the actual black aqualizer bands themselves?

I've got some nice LCD mockups i put together a while back, but I havent had any success changing the colors.

Success, but in my file, the second location for the EQ stripes was 9888898 NOT  9888896 -- FYI.    Thanks again for this great help

NP - I'm sure this post will be extremely helpful so I just wanted to state it for the record.  You are my hero because now my iTunes looks *beautiful*    Thanks again.

Hi, I'm a little confused about how to change the color of the background behind the EQ bar so that it will not be yellow and look horrible with a theme. I don't see that listed here but it appears people are taking about it. I am using the UNO theme and it changes that up to version 7.3.1 but I want to do it to 7.5. I have emailed the developer of UNO asking what I need to edit and he never told me. I have modded lots of stuff in the past but I can't figure this one out. Thanks for any help…
Edit: I finally managed to find the offset in 7.5 but I still need some help with the song selection color. I read the list above, but I must have missed something. Is the one that says "List Selected Row" the one that determines the song selection color? Edit: To answer my own question, Yes.
Here's what I discovered (after clicking on a bunch of Google search results).
The guide that I read was for iTunes 4.7 (and I think the first two are obsolete).
