See vi_edit's post below if interested. I think it rocks! I call it "Aqua" but you have to see it to really appreciate it. The screenshot doesn't do it justice. Remember, you can always set your stuff back to default with the click of a button if you don't like it.

If you download it from vi_edit's (thanks vi-Edit!) post below... here are the instructions to install it....

Just remember though, this is for Windows 2000 only. Just right click on the attached file and select "merge". Then, right click on your desktop and select "properties" then select the "Appearance" tab. Now, under the "Scheme" field, click on the dropdown and select the "Aqua" selection, then hit "Apply" at the bottom right, then "Ok".

If you don't like the scheme you can always go back in there and select "Windows Default" to get the standard colors back.

Try it out, and let me know what you think. :)

Where can I upload them to (screenshots)?

P.S. All you have to do if you don't like it is select the default right back. It's two mouse clicks max if you wanna go back to what you had. Even if you've changed your colors, all you have to do is save your current scheme, giving it a name, then if you don't like what I did you simply select it back. Very simple.

The file is only 166kb also.

Ok, I sent the screenshot to Rogue... hopefully he can linkify it.

Also sent him the file... maybe he can host it?

Thanks Rogue!

P.S. Also sent file to vi_edit. He said he'll host it and some screenies.

Hope you all like it!

You can't unless you try mine out first... but then of course you will fall in love with my scheme so much you will not want to make one. :D

Right click on your desktop and select "properties" then select the "Appearance" tab. Now, under the "Scheme" field, click on the dropdown and select the default selections to try out some premade ones, then hit "Apply" at the bottom right, then "Ok". Otherwise in the next field down select individual pieces and set their colors. When done, click "Save As" and choose a scheme name.

If you don't like the scheme you can always go back in there and select "Windows Default" to get the standard colors back.

I might add... if you use it, the AnandTech "Grass Green" theme goes really well with it. You can choose that by selecting the "Customize" button at the top right of the page here.

Not that bad, but it was rather dark and my eyes hurt if I look at dark/bright colors for too long.
