For XP you can download and patch (actually a ex.theme hack) with this Vista lookalike app. Be sure to read up about how to do it properly. After you do that (if you decide to) you can go to deviant art for many more themes. \n\nRead up here\nhttp://www.windowsxlive.net/\n\nHere\nhttp://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?s=250c027ee52888d0de6cc3022532096d&showforum=36\n\nHere\nhttp://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?s=250c027ee52888d0de6cc3022532096d&showforum=34\n\n\n More themes here\nhttp://browse.deviantart.com/customization/skins/windows/visualstyle/?order=9&alltime=yes
