Not really. The Vista taskbar will always stay some shade of gray or black, and possibly transparent if you're using the Aero UI. There is probably some style out there to change it to pink (I believe that I saw something like one months ago), but there's no way to change it regularly.

No, sorry. You can probably find it through a few Google searches, though.

Because I like hot pink, it's a pretty color. And it goes with my desktop.

Yes there is a way. I change the color of my windows and taskbar all the time.

Right click on your desktop anywhere.
Click 'Personalize'.
Click 'Window Color and Appearance'.
Make your selections. There is also the custom color mixer at the bottom.
Click 'OK'

Wa la!

Try changing the intensity setting. That should make it more...well...intense! ;)

And I can say, 'Wa la', if I want to.

Turn off transparency, crank up the intensity and the brightness. That's the best you're going to be able to do.

Well, I like hot pink. Oh and in my opinion Master Shake is better than Meatwad :) But that's just my opinion. But really, hot pink is a good color. I even like color Homestar's clothes pink and black in paint. Yes, I like hot pink and black together.
