Nebula2020 Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 Has anyone made a start button from the new Windows square logo? Nice and bright, I think it would look good as a start button. :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1108809-new-windows-logo-start-button/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Active. Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 Like this you mean? You're talking about the new Microsoft logo, aren't you? Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1108809-new-windows-logo-start-button/#findComment-595212795 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nebula2020 Posted September 28, 2012 Author Share Posted September 28, 2012 Thats pretty cool. I have saved your .png as a .bmp and tried to open it in "Windows 7 Start Button Changer" . Your .png doesn't show in the selection list. The button works, but is a blank image. Nearly there. Thanks.

Boo Berry Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 For Windows 8 users it should work with Start8 and Classic Shell nicely. :D Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1108809-new-windows-logo-start-button/#findComment-595213701 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nebula2020 Posted September 28, 2012 Author Share Posted September 28, 2012 Only Bitmaps allowed in Windows 7 Start Button Changer. I think. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1108809-new-windows-logo-start-button/#findComment-595213703 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nebula2020 Posted September 28, 2012 Author Share Posted September 28, 2012 Yep. window 7 here. Getting a new Netbook very soon (yeah I know). Want to use a classic theme, but with a bright start button. Minimal customization.

Somehow my mind was on Windows 8 and Start8 only. Anyway, this bmp file should work. I also adjusted the bottommost button from the png file (for Start8) by one pixel for anyone who is interested in that. Apparently it wasn't quite right before. button.bmp Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1108809-new-windows-logo-start-button/#findComment-595213889 Share on other sites More sharing options...
