XP Appearance Customization

A[L]C · 5 Apr 2007 at 10:03

Hi all,

Just wondering what customisations you use for XP? Be it transformation packs, themes (which ones) etc. Far too many vista threads here, thought XP needed to come back a bit!

start->run->"net stop themes"

Best of the lot I feel

I use XPize on both my notebook and PC - makes a nice subtle difference by changing certain icons and animations in XP that aren't in the XP graphical-style. Google XPize and you can learn more. I've used it a few times and it's not caused problems.

As for themes, I use Royal Inspirat Mod on my notebook, and I think the one on my desktop is Vista Inspirat or something similar to that. In any case, it's basically just a black version of the above one.

i've tried Xpize, also tried Super Turbo Tango Patcher, just a pain sometimes when it says it needs a reboot as a couple of files weren't updated, but adds a nice touch so i put up with it
