You folks told me I'd never have a Vista shutdown button. Now, I'm -1cm of padding away from proving you dead wrong about YOUR OWN SOFTWARE!!! :lol:
Here's the skin itself: VISTA SKIN...ALMOST...
Problem is, the button is getting squished. Any ideas of how2fix?

Your link leads to the picture, not to the skin itself. Can you send me the skin file?

The problem is not how to add 2 icons to the button. If that's what you want, there are ways to cheat it.
The problem is how to make 2 independent buttons that do different things (plus the arrow).

I don't think it should be done either because the Vista style gets rid of the text for the button unless you hover over it. Buttons without text are ambiguous.

Axtually, I don't care about it functioning like Vista, I just want it to look the part, un-squished.

EDIT: Well, the functionality would be nice, but that parts is impossible...right? :U
