Classic Shell skins - 'clrSharp Light, Light Floating, Dark & Dark Floating'
Four skinsets for Classic Shell[link] designed to match the windows 7 visual style Clearscreen Sharp[link] by K-Johnson.
There are four different sets, Light and Dark, with default and 'floating' styles. All sets have Big and small icons, both with caption and without one.
Light Floating was originally inspired by the 'show hidden notification icons' popup of the Clearscreen Sharp VS. The Dark style was made to better match the taskbar and original start menu.
I use this....and I want to thank you, as undoubtedly countless others do as well, and to say that I appreciate the incredible work you did with this. If I had not known about this from Ivo (Windows Seven Forums from 2009) when I tried Windows 7 in a laptop, I would never have put Windows 7 in my new computer as the disappearance of the classic start menu was a huge mistake that was never rectified. We were left with the monstrosity that they call a Start Menu with no options to change it. And Microsoft state that 'they gave us what people asked for' in Win 7...yeah right.
Thanks Mr.Edward, you're a star.

Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak
You can change the icons from StartMenuItems.ini. Find the "LogOffItem.Icon=shell32.dll,325" and "ShutdownItem.Icon=shell32.dll,329" lines. "shell32.dll,329" means it is an icon from shell32.dll, icon group ID 329. Use Resource Hacker to see what the icon group ID's are for all the different icons.

I have tried all 4 skins but there is no transparency.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
