if you are referring to the thinner 'compact' start panel, then in configure WB > pull down the drop down arrow next to skin name on the right hand side - if there is no sub stlye (compact, different color, etc., there won't be a drop down)

give us an idea of what you mean by smaller. post a link to a screenshot in question (copy the address of the screenshot page and post in the box here when you click link)

You gotta mean the Compact style, well that is up to the skin artist, if he doesn't include one then there won't be one in the skin.

Thus you either create your own in SkinStudio or politely ask the author if he could add one.

I'm sorry, I should have posted a link but I didn't think of it.
I mean a start panel like the one on " Merry Christmas from Ft.Lauderdale"

Right click on taskbar, click Properties, Start menu tab, Customize button, on general tab reduce number of programs on start menu, Click advanced tab, remove by unchecking items you do not want on places side of start menu. Click ok on Customize start menu window, click apply on properties window.
Open start menu and see how it looks. Keep playing with it until you get the look you want then click ok to close properties window.
