I'm using Windows XP build 2481 and I can't get the new Homestead and Metallic themes

[NFS4]

I'm using the latest build of WinXP (2481), but I still can't get those two new themes for the start menu. I did a browse for themes and it only finds Luna and the old start menu from Windows 2000. I did browse the internet and it takes me to the Windows Media site.

Can some one send me the .theme file for the new Homestead and Metallic themes?

Update, I found the file folders for Homestead and Metallic, but they're empty

I would also be interested in those 2 Themes!!
I got the Beta2 from MS and the next version I will get will probably be beta3 or rc1 so I would appreciate it if someone could send me the needed files for those themes.

Wow... times certainly are changing. First it was about tweaking the system to get the optimum performance in games and stuff, but now it's about the best themes...

I think that I win this competition with KDE 2.1

I tried installing the Metallic and Homestead Themes on my Beta2 but they wouldn't install (and I couldn't trick Win to accept them).
(Thanks han anyway...)

Does anyone know of a way to add these themes (or others like the old Professional Theme) into Beta2?

Go to the MS website there you can apply for the RC1 and RC2 (costs 10$).
