Having experimented with various tweaks for my Windows 8.1 system, I noticed that Start Is Back works beautifully with Big Muscle's Aero Glass for Windows 8/8.1: http://glass8.berlios.de/ The rival Start8 by Stardock does not work so well with Glass8, as the glass blur doesn't work with it (it also suffers from more slowdowns and freezes). For this reason I'd strongly recommend Start Is Back over Stardock Start8 for anyone also looking to get a Windows 7 Aero Glass effect on Windows 8/8.1. Here is a screenshot of Windows 8.1 Professional running Start Is Back with Aero Glass for Windows 8.1. Highly recommended for anyone looking to migrate from Windows 7 without losing both features: http://s11.postimg.org/x3odcyib7/Win8_1_Enhanced.png
