depends on the theme

That skin has a top shellstyle. You can change the shellstyle using this solution from another thread here:

"It took me a while to find it too, but you can select which shellstyle to use in the Desktop Properties > Appearance > Advanced section for the XP Overrides that control the shellstyle and taskbar stuff. I hope that's what you were referring to."

Hope that helps.

Just pick the shellstyle from a skin that you know doesn't have it on the top.

As boss said, this skin has a top shellstyle, Vista shellstyle, it did not change anything it was made this way. It is done with a different file for shell so you can't just move it back. This skin, unless it has a normal subskin, will not have any images or info for the task panel on the left. You would have to create needed images, set-up XPShell in SkinStudio and delete the proper file/files to remove the top shellstyle.
