Hey guys, Saw that there is no dedicated thread to the start orb. I read online that research showed that it is one of the most important parts of the windows UI. So here I am opening a new thread biggrin.gif I also recently started creating start orbs, but only have 2 because I have no "kick" tongue.gif Please do share your own start orbs or start orbs you love to spread the awesomeness thumbup.gif

Hi, nice guide, I'm using windows 7 start orb, however, after changed, the start orb won't glow or shine when my mouse hovered over, do I need to restart first?

I solved it already by using the latest version of start orb changer, the old version I downloaded does not work.
Thanks!
