windows skins/help

[gravitation]

hey guys i was wondering whether you guys could give me any names of programs to skin my windows xp ^__^ i used style xp and i liked it until i found out it had an expiration date...i want a free one ^__^ i also used windows blinds and currently have it, it would be good but whenever i log on the theme i privously had is gone and it looks like the old puters (windows 98 etc) so i have to change it again, its annoying i hate it...any suggestions on better programs or how to fix that windows blinds thing?!?! thanx, deeply grateful :)

solution: get a job and buy the program :)
I don't know of any good free skinning program. And windowblinds works perfect for me ^_^

I use Windows blinds, but when I need to change the Login screen i momentarly switch to StyleXP. If Window blinds doesn't start automaticly maybe you need to put it in the autostart menu.

There is a simple answer to your question. There is a free alternative to Style XP at http://www.eliteguild.com/articles/show.php?id=16&page=3. It allows you to use all the Style XP skins you already have.
