Get all of XP to look like itunes!
I was bored today and was browsing a windows customizing website when i found a skin that made all of windows look like itunes! It nice. The site is: http://www.themexp.org/view_info.php?id=36948
all you have to do is download a program called style xp and there are links on that site to it. Its pretty easy to install. It looks nice. Give it a try. Id post a screenshot but its too big to be attached.

That's a good site, but that theme is a little off if you ask me.
Check out the Jaguar Themes from Iceman's Emulation Site ( http://www.jonmega.com/~iceman/). Been using these for about a year now...

Ya but those dont look like itunes. They look like the mac theme. I was talking about the itunes for windows theme. Whatever i still like it more than the look of a mac theme .

This ( http://www.jonmega.com/~iceman/vs/screens/brushed_blue_01.jpg) is the Visual Style I was referring to. Has an OSX desktop, but the VS is definitely iTunes-inspired.

I've gone all out OS X once, with the full bar at the top and the three aqua buttons on the left hand side of windows, I hated it. Its so last year skinning XP to OS X ;)

Ya i did the exact same thing last spring. But is really slowed down my computer with all the progs running to make it look good. But i like mine skin better than the standard xp ones.

Yep, XP is so three years ago, but its so old its new, if you get my drift.
Oh, I also had the cool dock at the bottom, and I could even have 4 docks on each edge of the screen, needless to say it was more configurable than the beast itself.

I also used to have the dock on the bottom. But it was really annoying because whenever i'd put my mouse at the bottom of the screen it would pop up. And in games if it did it would make the game freeze until it minimized to show the dock. Annoying. Also a resource hog.

This would have to be the best icon collection I have ever seen on any system, I used them for my dock, this guys a legend.

Really cool stuff. Even if you don;t want a Mac-alike, you can pretty much do whatever your imagination can dream up.

Ya theres that stuff. I used some of that too, plus a dock called y'z dock. Good looking stuff but it makes a totoal slowdown of your computer. Or at least mine.

I use StyleXp already... that theme isn't bad, I'm using it now, thanks for the link.
