Drawing Buttons for Windows Vista and Windows 7 Projects
Read about the newest trends in producing contemporary Windows Vista-style icons for your products and Web sites.Developing standalone application or designing a Web site? Ensure your design looks modern and up-to-date by checking the icons used against modern standards. This text explains the latest trends in making modern, good-looking icons for your off-line and on-line projects.
With every new release of Windows, Microsoft refreshes guidelines for icon designers. If you want your product look consistent with the newest version of Windows, it is essential to read and understand the guidelines.
Not going much into technical details, Microsoft points out that Vista-style icons differ from older XP-style graphics in several ways. The drawing 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 graphics to PNG-compressed 256x256 pixel images, ensuring that programs look good on modern high resolution displays. 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 resolutions. Toolbar images in Windows Vista have no extra details such as shadows, and are flat with no perspective.
Well-designed and thought of images enhance the appearance of your programs, making them more consistent with Windows and third-party software installed on the user’s PC. Good graphics improve usability and efficiency of products, making it faster to use and more intuitive through better communication of ideas through symbols. Good graphics make buttons and actions easier to learn and to use day by 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 images share common style, colors and gamma, and come in all standard sizes, including the recently defined 256x256 True Color format with alpha-channel. Vista Toolbar Icons can be used in products designed for Windows Vista, as application or toolbar icons, on Web sites and on-line portals.
