In Windows Vista, the balloon popups look like the ones from XP.

However, at some point in the longhorn beta's, they actually looked like this:

If you want to recreate that effect for XP and vista, use a small application GlassToast created by “Andreas Verhoeven”.

  • WTF, the link is dead

  • VG

    Thanks for the heads up guys. Links fixed.

  • VG, Downloaded from the link and certainly prefer GlassToast to the regular balloons in Vista.

    Any recommendations for how to make it start with Windows? Thanks

  • VG

    ^^ You can add its shortcut to Startup folder.

  • VG, You were, as you know, absolutely right and I am most appreciative. It works perfectly every time and without starting it separately. Thanks.
