Does anyone know for any decent skins for XP which aren't trialware? I tired Windowblinds but that's a 30 day offer. I'm really after an Vista type theme.

On a similar note, I used to use "Window Pictures" for Windows 95, which was similar to Window Blinds in that it allowed texturing on your toolbars.
Also, did anyone mess around with shell replacements? Still going back to Windows 95 (year 1999), I tried something called Talisman. This gave a makeover for Windows, not only the bars but on functionality too. Without relying on Explorer, Windows was also more stable. Nowadays though, I believe that Talisman has changed from being freeware to shareware.
Only Mod i use now is RocketDock, which is awesome.
Indrid: GNOME is horrible :razz: There's plenty of decent shell replacements out there, just be sure to avoid the shitty mainstream ones like Litestep.
Here's my XP atm... if you want to know how to do anything here, give me a shout.
