There is a UX THeme patcher for XP that you can download and apply. Search the forums for these. Once u do that, go to the completed visual styles forum and other websites and download the visual styles. u can then apply these styles on your desktop and get the fancy icons and stuff. To use icons, u will need iconpackager or other software that can do this. but this is the starting point. hope this helps.. ;) :)

Here is the link for the theme patcher

How to use theme patcher. More information is on that link. Read every step before you proceed.

Thanks a lot for the info bonobozoot. So the visual style and the 3dcc scheme are the same thing? :huh:

Mine, running a new substyle of my Active Desktop project tehDesk. The row of system links uses (once again) transparent images so that it works with any wallpaper I see fit to use, and it has three different modes so that I can access other stuff when I need to. It does **NOT** open shellfolders, but the genuine items as if they were desktop icons. I did this out of an experiment to see how much functionality I could pack in a small space. And since I can appreciate minimalism, it influenced the design. I think it turned out pretty good, and it'll be included in the 2.0 release of tehDesk when we get finished with it. But I'm not here to plug the project. :whistle:

Anyway, the wall is a nice stock Fedora one from the wallpaper set, and the visual style used (NOT StyleXP -- uxtheme.dll patcher.) is Classix. Icons are stock WinXP (since it really dosen't matter what they are lol...). I'm thinking of trying BBLean to help this one along in it's path of minimalism.

:happy: :yes:
