I want to change this

into this

any way to do this?

Im not looking to change the taskbar texture, im okay with the texture/color, im looking to change the icon/application FORM so the form isnt the rectangle one like in win7 but the smoothened rectangle (???) like in vista.

Edit:
And the rectangle in vista is smaller in height

There are no tweaks in Classic Shell for what you are asking. A visual style/theme will help. Ask on sites like DeviantArt.com

i managed to mod vista application form into aero.msstyles but there are problems - http://imgur.com/a/vdakW and http://imgur.com/a/oYZW5
when i hover over an application there is this any color bar, that moves with the mouse. I think this is some kind of win7 animation
and there are some 2 stripes on the upper side of an application and the down side, and these color bars are moving along them
can i fix this somehow?
Edit:
im thinking of reducing the height of these taskbar animations, but google turned up nothing more than how to disable them, it doesnt animate but when i hover over applications there are bars that are still now (and these stripes are still there)

File comment: if anyone is interested. CHANGE .txt TO .msstyles
put it into your theme folder and replace

everything is okay now, i followed a tutorial for complete vista transformation here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tjBB8_BlKNI (some of the stuff was too much though, like replacing the win 7 task manager with vista's) that has the form in the theme
could you give me that vista taskbar texture one more time? i lost it :?
