Once installed you will need to choose the theme. I popped open the cab and it doesn't include any .dlls so I don't think it's going to replace the taskbar icons at the top of your screen like you are wanting/expecting. What it does do is replace a number of PNGs which are backgrounds and buttons. Not entirely sure which ones they are as I haven't installed it.

Anyway, swap out your theme and you should see a difference.

As for a different taskbar, I don't know how "glossy" it will look for you, but I have a modified BilboBrian (modified in that everything is in a single cab file and you don't need to read through 46 pages to figure out what the frak you need to install to get it all to work) taskbar. I'm attaching it here.

*EDIT*
Ok, I installed the cab from Darren and I FREAKIN LOVE IT! It REALLY compliments the icons (in my opinion) for the taskbar. This is basically one of the final things I was looking for to finalize the UI for the main screen...that looks AWESOME. I may tweak the top graphic to get rid of the bottom white line (blend better) but other than that it looks great!
