Hook99 will let you customize the start button, and, even take care of the text background.

Can't see what your problem is. Win2K Pro's Desktop is almost infinitely customisable and it's all there, already in Win2K. Go to Display and open up the Appearance tab. In there, you can select icon sizes, font sizes, parts of windows sizes, colours, etc., etc.

Perhaps your idea of customising is different to mine, though.

thnx for suggestions...I tried downloading hook99, but without any luck. I cannot open the .ZIP file once I downloaded it. Maybe I'm just clueless and missing something...
And although the 2k setup is nice - I would really like to make the icon script transparent...any further suggestions.
appreciate the thots. ;(

you will need a zip utility like Winzip or WinAR to open zip files.

Preferably you should use winzip.
