If you want to use the smaller taskbar instead of the original, do these passages:-rename the "steelflash 100k.msstyles" to something like "steelflash 100k-copy.msstyles"
-rename the "steelflash 100k normal button.msstyles" to "steelflash 100k.msstyles"
-apply one of the .theme on the \themes folder
The visual style is perfectly compatible with both versions of vista, x86 (32bit) and x64 (64bit)To increase the size of the quick launch buttons, do that:- Right click on a empty area of the taskbar.
- Click Lock the Taskbar to uncheck it.
- Right click on a empty area of the Quick Launch area between the dotted bars and the icons.
- Click View and click on either Small Icons or Large Icons to check the icon size you want.

Author's CommentsAs promised, the SteelFlash update is Finally here...
This project required me a lot of hard work, more than ever, because is not only my first Visual Style, but it also contains a new way to modify the appearance of the visual style: the Patchers.
Making Patchers is a bit complex, because the author have to think what resources will be replaced.
I've used this method because is really flexible and requires only a part of the normally required space.
This is the first application on visual styles (as far as I know), so please test it, and remember to backup your files, specially for the system files.
Before use this visual style- Make sure you have rightly patched your system with the uxtheme patches or vistaglazz.
You can find them here: [link]
- A tutorial to patch your uxtheme to use visual styles is here: [link]
- If you want to automatically patch your system, use vistaglazz:

-Remember that Windows Vista SP1 32bit (x86) is recommended, and the visual style have not been tested on the SP0.
