Hi,

I'm using the Royale noir VS, and I'd like to know how can I change the old start button with the Vista one, which is more compact.
I know there are a lot of Vista VS on the Internet, but none of them are top notch (it doesn't mean that Royale Noir is) and I'd like to know how to change it myself.

Thanks.

you can try using reshack, but there may be other things involved with just changing the images. for instance, you may have to change different values for the location of it. but you can give it a whirl newwink.gif

Thanks for the answer.

I open the .msstyle file with ResHack, and there is a lot a bitmaps!
I changed the ones looking like the classic Start button with the Vista one, but it doen't work, the .msstyle become buggy too.
I think, as you've said, that there is more than bitmaps to change.
Maybe someone will help.

I heard that StyleBuiler may help... Is it only useful in creating new themes or to modify existing ones?
