IMHO, simple UI is always user friendly, and with metro (Windows 8) you might see where the UI design is leading to.

Hi Adel K,

If you want to make one object looks shiny, you could create a style for this control, if you want to make all controls look shiny, you could apply a WPF theme, for more information, you could refer to:

create your resource file, and then apply it to control, I think there is no other simper method.

best regards,
