Stardock has unveiled its first beta of WindowBlinds 5 and with it, glass effects for Windows XP users.

At Microsoft's recent Professional Developer's Conference, the new Windows Vista UI was officially unveiled. Code-named Aero, the new user experience boast a new "glass" user interface in which the title bars and borders are semi-transparent.

The effect on Windows Vista is possible thanks to Microsoft's new advanced 3D desktop compositer which allows the desktop to leverage the latest 3D hardware. It was believed by many (including many at Stardock) that such effects could not be done on Windows XP with any kind of adequate performance.......read on http://www.wincustomize.com/Articles.aspx?AID=88234

Why do you need Style XP? Or what do you need? URL? Style XP is not necesary for WindowBlinds, or maybe you're talking about this kind of themes for StyleXP?
