download Start Button Skinner :p
It uses a top-secret technique. So if I tell you, I must kill you :D.
Well ok, I'll tell you (I'm just too damn nice :p). This is basically what it does:
- Find the start button
- Get it's position relative to the taskbar
- Hide it!
- Put a new window on the position retrieved in step #2
- Make the taskbar it's parent, so that it moves whenever the taskbar is dragged...
- Paint it with the skin, and when it's clicked, raise the start menu by faking the 'Start Menu' button being pressed on the keyboard...
I worked a little on it and I did all these step:
- Find the start button
- Get it's position relative to the taskbar
- Hide it!
- Put a new window on the position retrieved in step #2

In few i will be able thx you man
If you need any pieces of source code, just ask. Although it's written in Delphi, the part which I explained is plain API, so it can be easily recreated in VB.
That where I can change the text I just need to know where to add an icon or something like that (picture)Code:ButtonHandle = CreateWindowEx(0, "BUTTON", "DaoK", WS_CHILD, 0, 0, Wt, Ht, TaskBarHandle, 0, App.hInstance, 0)

Well, I didn't exactly create a window like that, I used the standard TForm in Delphi :D
But this could work too, just paint some picture on it. I didn't seperate text and icon, because that would limit the skin's appearance options, so I just used BitBlt to draw it...
