Restart your computer.
Go google for UxTheme.
Select the theme you want.
Then they have instructions there so may be different.
Once you're finished their instructions, go right click desktop and click properties, then Appearance and they are in the drop-down menu for Windows and Buttons.
The site i use is: http://themes.belchfire.net .

Google for UxTheme.
To install Belchfire stuff: Go to C:\WINDOWS\Resources and un-zip everything there. Some might come with its own 'Resouce' file, so you need to cut its contents and paste it into the default Resouce. DO NOT DELETE THE ORIGINAL RESOURCE because it also contains the default Windows one too.
What you got there is a WindowsBlind. It is a different thing than UXTheme. I'm not a computer-pro so I cant really tell you why. Use the vista one.

When u patch it you just restart your machine
when u download .wba files thats because you need Windows Blinds to use them IIRC
You can search for thousands of other themes in deviant art, and not require WB
when u download them go to C:/Windows/Resources/Themes
place the file there
then double click and select what u want (Depending of your theme)
colors, fonts, minimal, etc.
