Hey Guys,

I was just wondering what type of prog I would need in order to change the color of the taskbar because the olive and silver are getting old. Thanks.

can always change the color in display settings, but to change overall themes I'd get stylexp. There's also windowblinds, but I've never used it.

stylexp or the UXtheme.dll patch are the ebst ways.
i find that windowsblinds uses too much ram.

bah, don't listen to them. Windowblinds is the best. It's much more powerful, and uses LESS Ram than Style XP. (Remember to disable the themes service, because it is no longer needed).

Give it a shot. more powerful, less RAM, and it can use BOTH Windowblind themes and styleXP/uxtheme.dll themes.

They are both right. Beer is the answer. Duff rules. *burp*

There are kick ass themes for windows xp at deviantART (http://www.deviantart.com). You will need a hacked uxtheme.dll (http://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=140707) to use the themes. Try Royal Inspirat (http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/10949392/). It's my desktop theme right now.
