RE: Themes
Try running the uxtheme.dll patch, you can download it from:

http://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=140707...

You then put new themes in C:/Windows/Resources/Themes/

You should then be able to access them from that window... It isn't a program or anything, so it won't slow down your system!

RE: Themes
You can download them from anywhere, I'm not sure if the Windows Blind ones work though, I know that the visual styles usually used for Stylexp do work.

if you use the uxtheme.dll patch, you can't use windows blinds skins, but you can use StyleXP ones.

Yes but you need windowsblinds running to use them, whereas stylexp themes are msstlyes files so they dont need stylexp if you use the patch.
