Description
Another update by request: added black/grey/white versionsAlso added variants for small taskbar
Small update: Added wide version which looks pretty neat
5 colors for each variant are still inside.
--
And now for something completely different: Metro stuff
Made a bunch of Metro styled start buttons, to accompany Omnimo 4. I'm surprised to see nobody made these before. Pretty simple and useable (for me anyway). Made them mostly for myself, just thought I'd share
Comments are welcome!

Either use a start orb changer or don't use it. I can't include 4 explorer.exe (32/64bit,SP0/SP1) for 12 variants

The Start Orb Changer worked fine for me. It doesn't do any harmfull things right?

Not sure, I always use Resource Hacker, it's the only way to be sure

The drawback to that is UAC prompts for explorer.

I save it on the desktop, then take ownership of the original one, rename it to explorerbackup.exe and copy the new one

What I mean is that explorer loses it's UAC whitelisting in Windows 7, that's why I use Windows 7 Start Orb Loader (by X-Type) as it modifies explorer.exe in memory.

After starting the pc this morning, the orb was succesfully changed.

Oh, I see. After Explorer.exe gets restarted, it forgets the new start orb.

Start orb changer I use works perfectly fine.
