Themes for Windows XP?

[trenzterra]

Any free ones? except WindowBlinds.

 

[tandoc]

look @ themexp.org

and u can rip the ones from stylesxp for free - like i did which is totally legal

 

[trenzterra]

so how do I install the themes?I have 5 unzipped theme files. how to make them go together?

 

[Daniel]

Are you that blind??

It says on themexp site, in plain view, that you have to download stylexp.

http://www.tgtsoft.com/download.html

Then you extract the zips into the C:\WINDOWS\Resources\Themes folder.

sYes I think I needachange my glasses again.


That site really loads very slow. If you got other sites to recommend please do.

 

[trenzterra]

Hell where do I run Style XP? Can't see it.

WHERE DO YOU RUN IT?

Thats not too easy is it?

You just press on the Start>ALL PROGRAMS>TGTSOFT>STYLEXP

THEN you load the theme to the diredtory what Daniel said. Then you go figure it out.

Oh yeah, its a trial version.

 

[trenzterra]

how long does the trial last?

 

[DCI]

Where was that info indicated?

Umm, go to the main Style XP client and then Help>About Style XP. It will INDICATE it somewhere there.

 

[trenzterra]

ok so is there a way around it (like don't use stylexp)

 

[DCI]

No, i found some normal styles without StyleXP but those pretty much sucked.

Dude, wtf are you talking about? The vgui it comes with is 30 day trial, but you can change, add, etc. themes in your desktop properties.

[edit]If that doesn't work, just create or rip your own startmenu, icons, themes manually.

But one theme I used couldn't save it permanently into the Windows Themes under appearance.

Obviously YOU dont know what your talking about.

You cant download any themes and just put them without having having StyleXP. That just deletes the whole purpose of StyleXP.
