Customizing Xp To Your Liking!

This Should Be Pinned!



Great work MeDieViL!

A very good guide! About you saying you will update it later for when SP2 is out. I read somewhere that some people were having trouble with StyleXP and SP2. Not sure if it's true or not but it could be an issue.

Only one fault, "defauld" is spelt "default".

Errm, that's not everything you know.

There's the Basicly->Basically
And the its, which should be it's here, and so on.

But it's cool, and we aren't striving for perfection in form here, it's about facts, and that is done well enough.

watch out, changing boot screens can be dangerous. I would highly recommend not changing them the way this guide says, but instead using Stardock's bootskin. The other methods involve replacing important system files, but Stardock's method does not. Even if the bootskin doesn't work, at least it won't screw over your system, like the other methods.

Plus, I highly recommend Windowblinds! So many more options, and it uses LESS resources than Microsoft XP's default skinning engine (This includes Luna, StyleXP, and the uxtheme.dll patch).

wow, fantastic ideas in this guide.
I already knew most of teh apps u listed, most others i just have no use for (like for instance u listed more than one skin changer or something).
the windowfx program i have never heard of before though and really like that idea, i am about to download it now.

while i think this guide should be pinned...there are already too many pinned guides so i dunno. definately would help a lot of people though.

Might need this...UXTheme.dll Patch for SP2 Final

Other than that, a very nice guide and should be pinned IMO.

totally agree with that, work like this deserves to be pinned
