http://www.stardock.com/products/objectdock/ give the freebie version a go

Re: customise taskbar
 

There are many alternatives however if you want something completely different there is desktop x or you can chose new taskbars with windowblinds

Be careful with freebies because from experience, these sorts of things come LOADED with spyware.

windowblinds trying this one now.
desktop could not find the download link? Looks gthe best as well. Where the download?
I'd rep but need to spred the love :(

Window blinds is part of the same group as Desktop x. The latter is mainly for adding what they call widgets that come in various flavours such as weather reports, clocks, media players, etc.Imo mostly useless ;) I use window blinds myself and find it fine :) Ive also used the skin maker to modify skins to my preference :)

You can create a bitmap image and use that as the new taskbar background......

Didn't tweakui let you do that? Must admit I can't remember but I know I've had an application that let me do it lol.

y'z toolbar is also a great little app for changing the button styles and taskbar in xp. It's author was threatened by apple so he stopped working on/supporting it but it's great!

I don't have it on this pc and I can't get to my old pc atm to have a look.....
.....all I remember is that you had to create a .bmp strip of about 147x30ish and then save it to a file for inserting into the registry.......and when you used it the a/v would throw a fit! :D

Yz is still supported unofficially in a number of places. I used it for ages :) Think i may still have a copy of it in my webspace lol.
