I used Windowblinds but ti's a resource hog and it doesn't make the taskbar look like XP's. Is there any way to change it.

If you dont, do you know how to change the look of the Star button? That little pixelized windows logo looks like crap.

Thanks.

Hey baby, if you want the looks you have to take the whole package. BTW I don't see you suggesting any solutions. At least I did.

Heck some people even make it look like the "dock" from those purdy computers... i think they're called Macs or something.

Then how can I make it look like Mac OSX? Can you give me some links to the wallpaper, icons, etc?

Please! I am dead bored of this ugly windows theme. Anything nice would be a good refresh.

A MacOSX theme sounds nice. Help :)

Here you go... sorry... didn't really look into it much... my bro just told me about it... i'd imagine you'd have to put all kinds of crap on your computer before it will actually look like the dock... which would probably bog you down so much... :confused:

What is wrong with WinXp, I have used it for about 5 months now and i have not had that many problems.

That's what I'm sayin. WinXP r0x for me. Maybe I just never spent enough time doing different things with my computer to have any problems though.
