I want to theme up my xp as im getting kinda board of it at the mo. i found a link to a set of icons earlyer called turbo or something.. anyway installed that and like it just need a theme to keep up the standard.. so you know what it looks like here it is : *edit* stupid imageshack..




what im looking for in a theme is:

simple
nice choice of colours, not stupidly dark.
no really high contrasts
easy to read
no rough edges
no pixelation
now i was messing around earlyer and found a very bright colourd theme.. now it was a bit too much but i will keep my mind open

oh and im using a patched uxtheme.dll so it has to work with that.. although i might be talked into getting windows blinds or something if you can show me a good enough theme or give me some benifits of it!

There's one called Zune out there which apart from the wallpaper is a very smart theme. I'd either google for it or ask a don to link to the thread here in W&Sftwre (<I think)
 
cool ta, testing now - didnt get on with those first 2 themes. the makers have just tryed to hard imo :(


hm, parts of this zune theme are nice. ie the close/maximise/minimise buttons, choice of font and font sizes, however its just a poor choice of colours for my personal taste :(

any other idea's

Will bookmark it, but for now i think we have a winner. XPize is pretty neat.. the black theme is just not *too* black enough to not hurt my eyes which is perfect (sensative eyes + carp monitor! :( ) and yeah all is good. thanks for your help people.. didnt mean to seem rude im just very pickey about my computer thats all :D
