Ensure your project looks modern and contemporary by checking the pictures used against current standards. This text explains the latest trends in designing modern, good-looking graphics for your software and Web projects. With every new release of Windows, Microsoft refreshes guidelines for image designers. If you want your project 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 graphics differ from older XP-style icons in several ways. The style of the new icons 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 icons 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 graphics bear enough visual distinctiveness even in their lowest sizes. Toolbar graphics in Windows Vista have no very little details such as shadows, and are front-faced with no perspective. Well-designed and carefully thought of icons enhance the appearance of your software, making them more consistent with Windows and third-party software installed on the user’s PC. Great icons improve usability and efficiency of products, making it simpler to use and more intuitive through better communication of ideas through symbols. Good icons make objects and actions simpler to learn and to use every day. Vista Toolbar Icons are a set of stock application and toolbar icons designed in the new Windows Vista/7 style. Strictly adhering to all guidelines, the icons share common style, colors and gamma, and come in all standard sizes, including the recently defined 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.
