Nice theme?

Does anyone know of a cool XP compatable visual theme I can download that isn’t too huge (preferably less than 10 or 15MBs). There’s a really nice Alienware one out there but it’s massive. Thanks.

I dunno the link, but its called the “royale” xp, its a leaked one from the media edition, nice shiny buttons

google it.

Thanks, I tried that but it gave up after trying for a minute or so, stupid mirror. It’s an awfully small file size too so maybe it wouldn’t be so swell. I got a cool Apple-like dock thing though, I’ll keep looking for a cool theme.

SWEET! Really nice site Nic! appreciate it.

Exfoliate · April 18, 2005, 4:45am

Gah, didn’t work, said it couldn’t open file, didn’t know what program created it etc. How’d you get T3 to work Nic?

Exfoliate · April 18, 2005, 5:12am

Oh, never mind, d/l windowblinds and it T3 looks great. Is that a trial program though?

Nic · April 18, 2005, 7:17am

yeh it is unfortunately

You can get others. I don’t recall the names at the moment, but another good theme is an xbox theme.

I have tried many different programs to change the look of “Windows Classic” theme, but I just can’t get away from it, its pure simple and easy on the eyes.

Waffle · April 18, 2005, 3:49pm

Yeah I’ve tried a good couple, once turning my entire rig into a Mac substitute.

Can’t stand Xp’s classic, I need to have the blue XP theme to compute. Simple as

Exfoliate · April 18, 2005, 4:06pm

It’s fine but classic reminds me of our computers at school. :crash:

Nic · April 18, 2005, 6:43pm

I usually just use they silver theme

ninja_fetus · April 18, 2005, 10:47pm

I can’t use the silver theme, the contrast kills me. I run win2kpro right now so I really don’t have a choice Don’t mind though, as Sniper said it’s simple and nothing jumps out and burns itself into your retinas

Waffle · April 19, 2005, 7:06pm

speaking of themes, for the first time ever I tried the olive green one of XP.

im surprised but it looks really really nice!

don’t like silver much, too bland

Nic · April 19, 2005, 7:30pm

my friend always have olive green, personally i hate it
