Patch your uxtheme.dll file and then you can use any MSStyle file to customize Windows.

MSStyle file??? please explain

Windows XP themes have the extension *.msstyles

Search sites like deviantart and wincustomize for "Visual Styles" and the file you download will be something.msstyles

Windows XP does not automatically have the ability to use 3rd party skins but by patching the uxtheme.dll file you'll be able to use the visual styles. Double clicking the msstyles file applies the theme. Hope this helps..

Me uses Black XP Platinum for Windows eye-candy. Has a lot of themes and stuff!

Listen to ^this^ man, it's good advice.

I moved away from windows blinds and towards the light of visual styles. They integrate better with the OS with some applications than WB did.
