Creating Toolbar Icons for Windows 7 Projects
Read about the newest trends in producing modern Windows Vista-style icons for your software and Web sites.Developing standalone application or developing a Web site? Ensure your product looks modern and contemporary by checking the pictures used against modern standards. This article explains the newest trends in drawing modern, good-looking images for your off-line and on-line projects.
With every new release of Windows, Microsoft updates guidelines for graphic designers. If you want your product look consistent with the newest version of Windows, it is essential to read and comprehend the guidelines.
Not getting much into technical details, Microsoft points out that Vista-style images differ from older XP-style images in several ways. The style of the new graphics becomes more realistic than cartoon-line XP icons, but still remains symbolic without becoming too realistic. Microsoft also extends the icon format by defining the maximum size of the images to PNG-compressed 256x256 pixel images, ensuring that programs look well defined on modern hi-definition monitors. Finally, Microsoft recommends that toolbar icons are optimized for smaller sizes, and advises that toolbar graphics bear enough visual distinctiveness even in their lowest resolutions. Toolbar graphics in Windows Vista have no extra details such as shadows, and are flat with no perspective.
Well-designed and thought of graphics enhance the appearance of your software, making them more consistent with Windows and third-party software installed on the user’s PC. Good images improve usability and efficiency of software, making it faster to use and more intuitive through better communication of ideas through symbols. Good icons make buttons and actions simpler to find and to use every day.
Vista Toolbar Icons are a set of stock application and toolbar icon images drawn in the new Windows Vista/7 style. Strictly adhering to the latest guidelines, the icons 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.
