Well I don't know if most of you know me or not. But regarding your Desktop Theme, I was getting tired of the basic old XP themes and I was looking into changing it. THE SCREEN SHOTS ARE MY CREDITS ok.


Zune Theme
Supposed to be after the Microsoft Zune (ewww) Orange and Black based
actually it's a good theme here is a SHOT

that is the link. Don't worry just install and you see it in Desktop Settings.

MEDIA CENTER Style(Favorite)
take a page from Windows XP media center edition and put it in your normal XP. I love this style so much. It refreshes your computer and gives you newfound confidence(well it did for me lol) here are the shots


***y ain't it.

A shot of Photoshop in action with the theme (even ***ier)


If you like check it out here

Royale Noir Theme

If you liked the last two you will probably like this one. Not one of my Favs so I have no shots but here is the page that gives you the scoop.

Windows Vista Transformation
It basically changes the whole entire PC to the Windows Vista look(from logging in to playing solitaire)

Here is a screen shot


I don't use this anymore because it slows down your PC (only a little) lol.
Installing is easy, it basically patches the PC for you.
If you want just Google it but I don't recommend

So tell me what you guys think...which one is you FAV ?

Irock


Star_wolf

well true but I was trying to go for the FREE approach. but you can crack it I think

The Shadow

It's you! I know who you are!

By the way, I like the orange and black theme, since my favorite color is black.

Then why did you post that one? Otherwise, nice idea! Although, there are alot more out on the internet... And one more thing, you can also download stuff so the netire PC gets like Vista with teh 3D navigation thingy and stuff like that!

Black Shadow frm where??? RRREvolution??? that site is down nowadays you hear anything?

Windowblinds is (depending on the theme, one with tons of translucent stuff and animation obviously won't be) faster than XP's built in skinning engine, it's more efficient even in software more, but it's leaps ahead if you have a new enough graphics card (DX 8.1+), as it'll use that for hardware acceleration.

Windowblinds 5 ftw :)
