    http://www.themexp.org/

    That should get you started, but, i'm glad you've backed up those files, i'm not sending you them again

    EDIT: DO NOT USE THAT SITE, Spyware galore, it used ot be good, until people allowed their stuff to be "wrapped"in ****...

    Yeah thanks, i wondered why they were distributed as exe files, i like to get them in Zip format, so i can see whats in the archive first

    I already know sites like www.wincustomiz.com - I just need some more, i mean, where do you get yours from?

    So i noticed, as i mentioned somewhere before, for the price of XP, youd expect additional software to not be needed, like winamp should just download and load into the shell

    Everything these days is about £$£$£$£$

    You've got a good point there, but then again you'd have the shell taking all your HDD up, lol

    not really, if the skinning engine was made like winamp, it would be basically the same as switching from Windows Classic theme, to Windows XP, without software like StyleXP to make money from you
