Hey guys,

Most of you probably already know this but you can make the Windows 7 Superbar smaller. It looks a lot more attractive in my opinion and makes things a little tidier.

1. Right click the Taskbar

2. Choose Properties

3. Check Use Small Icons.

4. Click Apply

It's that simple.

It depends on your preference I suppose but I really do prefer the smaller version. Try it out for yourself.
i though everybody knew that. anyways nice mini tut.

xp>7
I think the smaller icons would look better, you know on Windows 7 can you have the task bar the same as xp or vista in the themes settings? I've never used 7 before hence why i am asking.

Yep, you can. Just go to properties and change taskbar buttons to "never combine".
Ahh, excellent stuff, thanks for clearing that up for me i think i may have to try it now.
Are you sure you didn't just make the picture smaller?

It looks funny at first but it's quite attractive.


I also moved my taskbar to top and set it to autohide and removed the status bar on my browser and re-sized the browser to fit the whole screen.
I'm using Windows 7, but I prefer the Vista look of the taskbar.

So, I customized it to my liking.

Agreed. Smaller icons look way better.
