Modern Tile Maker Description

If you have upgraded to Windows 8 and you want to tweak its appearance even more than installing a theme and replacing its default wallpaper, you can start enhancing the look of the Start Screen. Modern Tile Maker enables you to manually create customized tiles that would automatically access the file, folder or URL you specify. The graphic interface of the software solution is neatly organized and enables you to assign a name to the tile you want to design, then specify whether you would like its title to be displayed on the tile (if you do, you can choose the font color that you like best). Next, you need to browse to the file, folder or URL you want the tile to launch, and if you select a program, you can mention if you want t to be launched with administrative privileges. The final step is to adjust the actual look of the tile: you can either go for a solid color of you can select a custom image, while keeping in mind that large pics will be resized to fit within the default size of the tile. When you are done with the configuration, you simply need to pin the newly-created tile to the Start Screen and test its functionality. If you encounter any issues with using your tiles, you can try setting Internet Explorer as the default browser, then try launching the tiles again. All in all, Modern Tile Maker can come in handy to all those who like to experiment with the many functions of their OS and who want to personalize their computer as much as possible. However, it is best to create a restore point before you mess around with the Start Screen on your PC. Reviewed by Giorgiana Arghire, last updated on January 21st, 2014
