Make sure your interface looks modern and up-to-date by checking the images used against modern standards. This text explains the newest trends in designing modern, good-looking graphics for your software and on-line projects. With every new version of Windows, Microsoft refreshes guidelines for icon designers. If you want your project look consistent with the newest Windows release, it is important to read and comprehend the guidelines. Not getting much into technical details, Microsoft points out that Vista-style icons differ from previously used XP-style graphics in several ways. The drawing style of the new graphics becomes more realistic than XP icons, but still remains on the symbolic level without becoming too realistic. Microsoft also extends the icon format by defining the largest size of the graphics to PNG-compressed 256x256 pixel images, effectively ensuring that applications look well defined on modern high resolution monitors. Finally, Microsoft recommends that toolbar icons are optimized for smaller-size viewing experience, and advises that toolbar icons bear enough visual distinctiveness even in their lowest sizes. Toolbar images in Windows Vista have no very little details such as shadows, and are flat with no perspective. Well-designed and carefully thought of images enhance the appearance of your products, making them more consistent with Windows and third-party software installed on the user’s PC. Good icons improve usability and efficiency of software, making it easier to use and more intuitive through better communication of ideas through symbols. Good graphics make objects and actions simpler to find and to use every day. Vista Toolbar Icons are a set of readily available application and toolbar icons designed in the new Windows Vista/7 style. Strictly adhering to the latest guidelines, the graphics share common style, colors and gamma, and come in all standard sizes, including the recently added 256x256 True Color format with semi-transparency. Vista Toolbar Icons can be used in products designed for Windows Vista, as application or toolbar icons, on Web sites and on-line portals.
