Try to avoid the apply button on the popup after saving the theme, that crashes my system too. And uxstyle can sometimes give a black screen so instead of uxstyle try ultrauxthemepatcher which seems to have fixed the blackscreen issue with winlogon.

The text shifting is quite troublesome :/

Properties window tabs, how to change the height?
I'm trying to make the following tabs in WSB: http://danrabbit.deviantart.com/gallery/?catpath=/#/d4yx34p

I thought it wouldn't be so hard but the slected tabs are bigger then unselected ones an so fort
So how to change their size?

It's clearly native in that video and I remember disabling blur in the taskbar on windows 7 by installing a custom toolbar on it so it is possible

Oh wait you mean making it use a different image for IE10?
If so I'm looking for the same thing since I also have exactly the same problem

just add at that location a image property and import a image, also don't forget the active/inactive maximized backgrounds.

It does exist
It's called tbariconblanker ^^
here's a download: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4281191/TBarIconBlanker.exe

add the margin to the side of the image(so make the canvas width bigger in PS but keep the image size the same and increase the right sizingmargins in WSB) and move the search icon on the canvas to left or place the search icon on the searchbar bg image.
