Unfortunately I dont understand the article. I assume, that this should show me/us, how to use other designs for bttons. But how? Can you explain it in other words to me, please?

I'm quite sure those funky buttons are owner-drawn.

The Borland buttons make an app look cheap, old and unreliable.

A lot of old Windows v3.11 apps look like that, which is why it's commercial
suicide to use them in this day and age. Nobody wants to use an app that
looks like it was written back in 1990, no matter how good it is.

I got the joke TS!

Still there are snippets of code on those pages. I am sure someone with the Windows API can figure out how to call them in from the cold!
