Best Themes For Windows Xp?

BEST THEMES FOR WINDOWS XP..also post in if ur using it and link to d/l it

Which is the best theme?

It is all about choice of user, different users & different choices. U can find themes of ur choice on these links.

www.wincustomize.com/

www.themexp.org

www.windowblinds.net

www.stardock.com

You can also download softwares like Style XP or Window Blinds from above links.

i never seen any other themes for XP other than the default provided and 4 other themes available in Windows XP Plus! package

usually Visual styles *msstyles are available at many websites like the ones given above though i would NOT recommend stardock or windowblinds...

lemme know if you find any complete XP themes available for download

it looks really cool
but i still prefer visual styles coz they integrate into windowsxp

and are usually light on resources and they dont require any external programs

the best msstyles i remember are :
> XP Black Final
> Ultra Blue
> Xtreme XP (fantastic XBox style)
> Crystal db2

My favorite theme is VistaCG

The best Vista look-a-like visual style!

U can d/l it from here.

Though rakeshishere has mentioned the thread, in which I posted a screenshot of the theme and also the download link as well as the method to use the theme.

Just copy the d/l ed VistaCG folder to "%systemroot%\Resources\Themes folder, and now u'll get the theme in Desktop Properties

i enjoy crystalxp.net themes

wincustomize is gud. i found a gud lotr theme for Windows Blinds and it was fantastic. themeXP is cool but it's collection is not as gud as wincustomize's is.

using a custom made Vista theme for Windowsblind, the fastest skin as i have optimized the code a lot. Object bar theme is ported from Vista CG

USE one at a time coz it may create problems in ur comp and then the only last option would be to do a fresh install of ur OS

For me:
Patched uxtheme.dll + msstyles form skinbase or similar + wallpaper from similar sources+ sounds n icons + notepad file with extention .thm [with requisite lines of config of course] binding them all together.

ps: currently using a msstyle called "xenes"

The best theme probably has to be Tiger by ~Kol

Try to avoid themes since these slow down ur PC....
In fact use the classic mode or the best performance setting from the system properties box in XP...
