    fyi, nothing will skin your pc better than using the GUI tut in the sticky and then getting themes from devArt, nothing

    I'm pretty sure that is the best way, I did it and now I don't have to worry about 3rd party programs that do it warning me that the trial is up or it screwing up windows. That way explained in that topic takes about 5 mins and is definately worth it. You can download some cool themes at :www.deviantart.com ... im sure of many other places though.

    www.wincustomize.com, you go there and download WindowsBlinds, they have a massive selection and many different styles to choose from as well as many many other things for windows and your comp that you can customize.

    Once you replace the uxtheme.dll you only have to double click the file and it will take you to the desktop appearence tab. Then just click ok
