Hey again, I don't want to seem like I keep complaining (Classic Shell is already too awesome) but when using the new start button feature it adds a line of color on top of the button no matter what size I set in Classic Shell. 1px of either blue or black, depending on the theme used in Windows.

It seems to me that the problem is that the button is 1px too small and thus the back of the taskbar is bleeding through.

    Here's the image I tested with:

    The Windows 7 taskbar is 30px tall, and 30x 3 (for 3 buttons states) is 90 so the height of the button image is 90px.

    Maybe perhaps we could be able to change the button's height in addition to the width in Classic Shell Settings? Maybe support alpha for custom orbs?

    The button is not too small, but is offset by 1 pixel down. I do that to better match the position of the existing Windows button. For the next version I may find a better solution that works in more cases.

    This bug is fixed in version 3.6.0.
