The large Icons are not a part of the WB-skin but can be accomplished with IconX https://www.stardock.com/products/iconx/
The sidebar in the second screenshot is just the normal Windowstaskbar dragged to the side (you can't have both, the bottom one and the sidebar).
To do that just left-click on your taskbar at the bottom and then drag (with your mouse-button pressed down) it to the side (doesn't matter left or right). If your taskbar doesn't move, right click on it and uncheck "fix taskbar" (or something similar, I am at a German system at the moment and I can't remember what it was in English).
If you want both, a bottom taskbar and a side-bar, you will need something like Object-bar https://www.stardock.com/products/objectbar/

The sidebar on the Blister Screenshot is Object-Dock Plus.
As far as Large Icons, I would recommend Iconpackager with IconX for the results your seeing.
aufisch was referring to "Lock Taskbar" on the english version.
Curious.....this is the second time in less than a week I've noticed someone with a year one ID# referring to themselves as a noob. Is Stardock starting to recycle ID#'s?

Hey Lantec; they would also have to be recycling the member since dates. Or maybe it is another database bug.?

The sidebar your referring to is a Tabbed Dock from Object Dock Plus. There is a free version of Object Dock but it does not include the Tabbed docks.
You'll find it listed with the other programs on the Software Tab at the top of this page.

Hi again!
Ok, I downloaded the ObjectDock Plus
but I have a default right sidebar with the opened programs, how can I do to have that "Aplications" sidebar?

Right-click the Tabbed Dock > Tab Settings > Remove all but one of the tabs in this
window > Choose a skin > Click Ok > Drag the Dock to the end of the window (until it
won't go any further) > let go, and it should automatically turn into a drawer.
