I'm getting quite bored with the look of my desktop lol, and was wondering if anyone knew a good website where you could change the them around like the start bar and what not.

my brother got his too look like a mac but I gladly passed that as I'm not a huge mac fan lol.

A warning to anyone who wants to try that

I know someone who did that and decided they didn't like, it turns out the uninstall program only reverts about half of the stuff it does to your themes, me and him had to replace system files and edit registry values to get it back to normal.

Yeah, I wouldn't recommend hacking the GUI unless you know exactly what you're doing.

Something that's always irked me about Windows XP/Vista is their ease-of-use for changing themes, but that they only allow for "MS-Approved Themes", which there (for XP at least) were only about 3 of (Luna, Royale, and WinClassic?).

Seemed a little ridiculous to me, but I used Neowin's XP GUI hack to remedy taht problem lol.
