Creating Buttons for Windows Vista Applications
Read about the latest trends in making modern Windows Vista-style buttons for your software and Web sites.Producing standalone application or designing a Web site? Ensure your project looks modern and contemporary by checking the pictures used against modern standards. This text explains the newest trends in designing contemporary, good-looking images for your software and on-line projects.
With every new version of Windows, Microsoft updates guidelines for image designers. If you want your product look consistent with the newest Windows, it is important to read and comprehend the guidelines.
Not going much into technical details, Microsoft points out that Vista-style images differ from older XP-style images in several ways. The style of the new icons becomes more realistic than XP icons, but still remains symbolic without becoming photorealistic. Microsoft also extends the icon format by defining the largest size of the graphics to PNG-compressed 256x256 pixel images, ensuring that applications look good on modern hi-definition displays. Finally, Microsoft recommends that toolbar icons are optimized for smaller sizes, and advises that toolbar icons bear enough visual distinctiveness even in their lowest resolutions. Toolbar images in Windows Vista have no very little details such as shadows, and are flat with no perspective.
Well-designed and thought of graphics enhance the appearance of your programs, making them more consistent with Windows and third-party software installed on the user’s PC. Good icons improve usability and efficiency of programs, making it simpler to use and more intuitive through better communication of ideas through symbols. Good graphics make objects and actions simpler to learn and to use every day.
Vista Toolbar Icons are a set of readily available application and toolbar icons drawn in the new Windows Vista/7 style. Strictly adhering to all guidelines, the graphics share common style, colors and gamma, and come in all standard sizes and resolutions, including the recently added 256x256 True Color format with semi-transparency. Vista Toolbar Icons can be used in programs designed for Windows Vista, as application or toolbar icons, on Web sites and on-line portals.
