HOW TO CHANGE YOUR START ORB :

Method 1 :

Use this tool to change the exe : Windows Theme Installer by Kishan-Bagaria

add a "take ownership" shortcut to your right-click

and use the old trick by using the task manager, end explorer.exe, then browse and replace

Or you can use a resources hacker like ResHacker or Restorator in order to change the picture inside the explorer.exe.

HOW TO CHANGE ICONS ON THE SUPERBAR :
First, place your shortcut on the desktop, change icon by : right-click > Properties > Change icons > browse..... > OK > OK
only then place this shortcut on the superbar,
and now it works.

There's a download button on the right of this page, the green arrow
I know deviantArt should change it to make it more visible, you're not the first to ask, but I can't do anything about it myself..

You have to right-click the Theme Installer and press 'Run as Administrator'

Well, first it's not a theme, it's only the start orb.
And the first method has to work...

I really like Soft7 2.0 beta 1. I hope Soft7 2.0 and orbs will be for Windows 7 SP1 (7601)

As soon as the SP1 will officially be released I'll update them for the x64 version, and I'll try to grab an x86 version to update it as well.
Thanks

Thanks
Soft7 2.0 is in a good way, I've just finished the superbar on bottom and the start menu, and they are 100% finished ^^ (all the states of buttons, combined or not, they're now white and not light gray, etc...) And the start menu, as wanted, is darker and now readable whatever you could got as background ).
The caption buttons are also 100% complete ^^

AlexandrePh In reply to maxxdogg [2011-01-10 14:01:45 +0000 UTC]
The main difference is the shadow
I only did it by request and it's not made in the kARΓ style

i know but if U made a Kare style square and round blue orb (without glass effect) it would be better than Your grey orbs

Woo! Epic. Too bad I can't request kare icons. My taskbar will be complete if I can. -.0 Ah well. I might look into using the small one. The big orb just doesn't fit...
