best windows xp skin?

A color scheme with no skin.

I tried StyleXP for a while and it had some pretty nice visual styles, but it expires after 30 days unless you pay for it.

Nintendo also released a really nice GameCube theme for XP if you're into that. The only problem I (and my buddy at work who hooked me up with it) had was that it does tend to lag your computer a bit, so I ended up uninstalling it after a while.

ChosenOS looks amazing on XP, as does dab, Milk and Jaguar.

Screw StyleXP, use the UXtheme hack and all the stylexp skins work through the default windows theme manager thingie (note: this is a legal hack).

If you have XP SP1 installed, then you need to get the version that support SP1. There were couple of versions out. If it still doesn't work, then you are out of luck.

works fine. just make sure to replace the uxthemedll in the service pack directory too. windows sneaky, keeps two copies. not to mentionit'll restore the file if u do it in windows. u gotta do it in dos.

other then that, theme support is already there! stupid ms disabled it unless so ud buy plus pack, thus f*cking their skin community. probably be much larger if they had just left it in, no one buys plus pack anyways, ms only came out with4 lame styles.

i use the osx skin sometimes
