6. Go to the preferences by right clicking the icon in the toolbar and go to the 3rd tab. Make sure to change Task Grouping to Group Similar to get the effect shown in screenshot with 2 or more windows showing on hover over.

UPDATED:

Please list any bugs,changes or improvements I can make on my skin.
Please give feedback on new taskbar colour. Is it better and/or is there a better colour for the taskbar?
