or with 3rd party software?

with skinstudio 6, whenever i try to use a homecrafted taskbar thats smaller then the original windows vista taskbar, skinstudio resizes it to the original size (30px) while my taskbar is only 22px

To create a smaller taskbar I believe that you need to make all taskbar parts, start button, taskbar buttons and system tray smaller as well. Also in WB config, Settings tab, make sure for taskbar setting is skin decides size.

Try this:
In SKS6, Edit StartMenu and Taskbar--Horizontal Taskbar--Buttons--Text tab, make the top and bottom margins smaller. It should shrink your taskbar.

Also check what Cavan1 noted; if items other than taskbar are too large, they will look odd or not fit properly on the taskbar.
