There are a few tools floating around the web which allow you to do this now, so I've grabbed the best of them here for you're convenience.

Vista visual styles pack

If you simply fancy a refreshing new look for Windows XP, simply download StarSkin XP http://www.downloadquick.co.uk/xptheme/tools/xptheme_starskin.exe.

This enables you to add great new visual styles to Windows XP. More than just a fresh lick of paint.

    Also... If you've downloaded StarSkin, you'll be wanting to find some cool skins to install with it. You can get these from: XPTheme.info(when it's up - not at the mo) ||{1}|| ||{1}|| Enjoy

    Hi there mrhowto. Per my experience, your blog did better than my how to write you first hit blog for new Soulcasters. Someblody said it in my post, people love free information and this is one way you're going to be easily noticed. This also puts you in the spotlight for one of the top blogger having hit the more than 400 hits marks. Congrats :)

    Weyhey! Cheers FD. It was quite easy actually, and have written another post on how I got the views. Simply by putting the link back to this post on an external, relevant, high traffic site which is run by a friend of mine. ;)
