Vista Thumbnail Sizer

Vista Thumbnail Sizer is a lightweight Windows utility developed to change the dimensions of the Vista windows thumbnails.
As you probably know if you’re a Windows Vista user, moving the mouse over the Taskbar buttons shows a live preview of the apps, thus allowing you to bring the window you need back to front.
Well, Vista Thumbnail Sizer is here to customize the whole experience by changing the dimensions of these thumbnails, offering a very simple GUI to interact with its users.
For example, Vista Thumbnail Sizer can change both the width and the height of a thumbnail, but also add fade-in animation, with a dedicated slider to adjust the duration.
There are no other configuration settings and this is a good thing for rookies, while the application runs on very low resources without hampering system performance in any way.
As you may find out just by reading its name, Vista Thumbnail Sizer works on Windows Vista exclusively with the Aero UI enabled.
It doesn’t ask for special user privileges, but you need to keep it running all the time, so the dedicated feature to launch it together with Windows could come in very handy.
Overall, Vista Thumbnail Sizer is quite a handy product, although it’s pretty clear that these basic customization options may not appeal to professional users. It already has the essential tools, so all future improvements could only make it much better.
