Drawing Toolbar Icons for Windows Vista and Windows 7 Projects
Read about the newest trends in designing modern Windows Vista-style buttons for your programs and Web projects.Developing software or developing a Web site? Ensure your product looks modern and up-to-date by checking the pictures used against modern standards. This article explains the newest trends in making 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 product 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 graphics differ from older XP-style icons in several ways. The style of the new icons becomes more realistic than cartoon-line XP icons, but still remains on the symbolic level without becoming too realistic. Microsoft also extends the icon format by defining the maximum size of the icons to PNG-compressed 256x256 pixel images, ensuring that applications look good on modern hi-definition monitors. Finally, Microsoft recommends that toolbar icons are optimized for smaller sizes, and advises that toolbar icons bear enough visual distinctiveness even in their lowest sizes. Toolbar images in Windows Vista have no details such as shadows, and are flat with no perspective.
Well-designed and carefully thought of icons enhance the appearance of your products, making them more consistent with Windows and third-party software installed on the user’s PC. Great graphics improve usability and efficiency of products, making it faster to learn and more intuitive through better communication of ideas through symbols. Good images make buttons and actions simpler to find and to use every day.
Vista Toolbar Icons are a set of ready-made application and toolbar icons drawn 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 and resolutions, including the recently defined 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.
