Search online for "Windows XP themes", you'll find plenty.

Also look out for the official MS Royale theme.

I was also looking for these :)
Im not paying though. Freebies are a win

XP should have had more to choose from in the appearance options anyway. Like a theme for each colour, like.

I personally use nothing other then any of the below, this comming from someone who used to spend hours a day on making his old xp look pretty
Download the 30 day trial version:

http://www.tuneup-software.co.uk/pro...eup-utilities/

Search the 1000's of windows themes,log in screens,boot screens,icon packs etc at:
http://www.belchfire.net/

Or check out these AlienWare, 'Xp/Vista' compatible themes:
http://www.alienware.com/community/a...manager.aspxIf you need a quick demo on how to install themes,log in screens,boot screens etc when using Tuneup Utilities 2009 then im sure i can type up a quick guide in no time But its all pretty strait forward.
