DUDE!

Seriously, I have liked and disliked some of your Vista styles - but this is positively great. It's more than a look - it's a feature in my eyes! Nicely done.

My respect for you in this community is definitely growing!

ok i have to admit i didnt spend as much time aliasing as i should have, but theres a good reason to why i created this mod, and really its for fellow themers to use as a template...

Im currently busy with other things but about a month ago psycob released the infomation on how to resize the taskbar using binary edits... but unfortunatly this had a major bug.

I figued out how to fix the bug that caused the taskbar to double up as default, but no matter how hard i tried to explain to others how to do it, nobody seemed to get it right, so i decided it was easier to do it for them.

In short, ive done the hard bit, but not the easy bit...

Hopefully you will see fellow themers making some themes with a thin taskbar soon :) As i said before... im a little busy at the moment.

But if anyone wish's to improve on this, then please do so... The images are located in the .msstyle... extract them with a resource hacker from the IMAGE folder.

The Taskbar is 743.png

The Start button on bottom is 872.png

The start button on top is 876.png

The start button for doubled up taskbar is 868.png

    • Thanks, Sony and Nintendo, you effectively killed platform-agnostic gaming. Long gone are the days when you could wish to play a specific game on whatever platform you were. Now, you have to buy the hardware just to play that single game. What, you're only interested in THAT game and nothing more? Bad luck, suck it and buy our console.
    • The AI data centers need it more than us so...let them gobble it all up at that price!
    • "CRAZIER than ever!" Crazy Taxi: World Tour is officially coming soon by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Sega announced it is working on bringing back some of its classic franchises in 2023, and while it has taken some time, the company finally gave fans a look at one of these new projects at the Xbox Games Showcase today, which turned out to be a brand-new Crazy Taxi entry. Watch the debut trailer above, which has snippets of gameplay in between the cinematic bits while blasting a track from The Offspring. Dubbed Crazy Taxi World Tour, this installment is aptly being described as being "CRAZIER than ever!" The director behind the original, Kenji Kanno, is helming this new entry as well, which will come with access to five new cities to drive in, competitive multiplayer modes, a vehicle customization system, and more. Axel is returning as a protagonist as well, but this time a mystery driver is offering him the opportunity to take his adventures to the streets in other countries. This will involve Axel chasing down masked villains that have somehow stolen his taxi, which means even more extreme missions and challenges to overcome. "From transporting passengers at top speed to tackling unique side missions and odd jobs across dynamic maps, there are countless ways to drive crazy and rake in big money," says Sega about this new installment after over 20 years. "Perform outrageous drifts, catch insane air, and drive at crazy speeds across five different cities as you work to deliver passengers and complete a variety of missions and challenges." The studio has even confirmed an in-game Arcade Mode that players will be able to access containing the original games for plenty of nostalgic action. Crazy Taxi: World Tour is currently slated to release sometime in 2027 across PC, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch 2.
    • This and Crazy Taxi are the two games that interested me the most from this showcase.
