Notice:

Updated shellstyle to fix an oversight where the Control Panel in Category View has mismatched colours and changed the icons as well as an afterthought.

Sorry I did not foresee this issue as I had Control Panel forced in permanent Classic View.

Since this VS was done rather quickly in 3 days, I've been putting off fixing the graphical glitches until I had some free time on sunday. :blushing:

Changes for Ver1 to Ver2

----------------------------

-Tweaked most of the graphics

-Tweaked some colour hues

-Resolved caption buttons alignment issue for different window frames

-Better, more accurate clickable area effect for caption buttons

-*New* Compact substyle with thin taskbar, frame captions and compact start menu

The bonus for me is finally figuring out how to resolve the close buttons alignment that plagued every Vista style VS I've tried. :whistle:

Screenshot and downloads updated in post #1. :hello:

As some of you know... a while ago, I found a way to have perfectly aligned Vista caption buttons which don't align too high and have their tops cut off when maximized.

Something new this time, a new method to have a full Vista start orb in multi tier top/bottom taskbars and left/right vertical taskbars, using only .msstyles for XP.

Just to share for those who want to make Vista styles. (Had to make the full orb bitmap myself, since every Vista style I tried had a cut off graphic.)

-Added addition graphics to improve vertical taskbar aesthetics and alignments

-*New* Full Vista start orb on multi tier top/bottom taskbar and left/right vertical taskbars
