Custom Navigation button thread We have several Customization threads.
Probably, we are first to start a new type of customization thread in Windows 7 Forum arena: Custom Navigation button thread.
We, fortunately got a bunch of excellent graphical artists here, so, we can expect, this thread will be showcase of excellence soon. Why we will change?
1. There is a possibility, that you like a particular theme, but you want to change the navigation button only, for that, you change the whole theme. Now, we can particularly change it.
2. We can customize Windows 7 with more richer animation (like we did for Start Orb) of our choice. How to change?
I today have posted a tutorial on how to change it. Read here: http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials...on-change.html
I dont know if any "easy" application is made by anyone to make it easy; but I hope, we will get such app soon.
So, please start contribution

Thanks A Guy a ton for the link, but it does not work
No, I just showed color changing, but, more creative things can be done (like we did with Start Orb and doing!)...more glow effect..more indent effect on hover etc.
I cant check the app (due to broken link or something wrong from my side), may be it have such options... | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number COMPAQ Presario Laptop OS Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit, Mac OS X 10.6 CPU Intel Pentium Dual Core @2.0GHz Motherboard Compaq Generic Memory 12GB Graphics Card NVIDIA Graphics For Mobile 512MB VRAM Sound Card IDT High definition Audio Monitor(s) Displays Laptop LCD Display Screen Resolution 1280*800 Bright View Widescreen Keyboard Generic Laptop Keyboard Mouse Touch Pad Cooling Direct ; generic fan Hard Drives 500 GB Primary Master@7200rpm + 1 TB External HDD Internet Speed 3.1 Mbps wireless Broadband Other Info Generic Dock |
