Hello,

The base button is the one from Windows Vista, "animations" by myself.

Edit: See version 2 (best in my opinion) and 3 (black) in a posting below!

Pictures below are shown with Classic Shell start button size set to 48.

Base:

Mouseover:


Open start menu:

Nice 'pressed' state. It gives a real feeling of a pressed button. :)

Thank you. I found that to be fitting... somehow. ;)

Version 2:

I've created a new version that doesn't have the highlight effect on the Windows logo itself (just on the button) on mouseover and a slightly more subtle pressed state. I think it's now a bit more elegant than before. Again, I use it with button size set to 48 but it works well with many different sizes as the original image is rather large. Let me know what you think!

Hi,
I found the Version 3 Black set at size 72 perfect for my Windows 7 Ultimate Parallels Desktop. Thank you very much for providing the buttons. :D

Go to the "Start Menu Style" tab, click on "Advanced button options...", then look for "Button size". Change the number beside it to something other than 0, and click "OK". I suggest starting with 50 or 100, and changing the number a little bit repeatedly, until the button reaches the size you want.
