Apologies for sizing, but this is all that my desktop is nowadays. Simple, and relaxed. Sod all the clutter, the Dock, stuff on the Desktop, everything. All I need is Bowtie (top left showing the now playing, click the button once to pause/play, twice to skip, thrice to go back) and QuickSilver (launcher app). Everything else is utterly unnecessary.

How the hell did you manage to decrease the windows taskbar size and display the gadgets on that vista-like bar? D:

Nothing special, really.
I found a lot of these on the CDs which were included in some PC magazines, and I also tried almost every customizing program for XP back then, but that was around 6 years ago |8
I can't even recall the names, apart for ThemesXP which was my favourite (and included dozens of themes already) and Windowblinds (which I still use for Seven sometimes for the Icon's function)
Apart from that, I'd recommend crawling DeviantArt's files, they have a special category for skinning, and most of their themes are stunning 8|

EDIT : And here's the link : http://browse.deviantart.com/customization...indows/?order=9
Most of these should work on XP SP3 like this Win7 theme : http://vher528.deviantart.com/art/Windows-...Atime&qo=10

Thanks mate, sadly I can't pretend I created the original template for the icons, I merely fiddled with them, adding some brush strokes and the glow effect |8
I can send you the modded template if you want, it's under CC license, and I even kept the dA link on them so it's more than fine 8|


@Jason : You're welcome 8|
