Computer themes

You heard of WindowBlinds? That's probably the best way to customize the "look 'n' feel" on Windows. The only thing that annoys me is that it's ran as a program in the background. However, WindowBlinds 5 runs it natively alongside with Windows (you have to pay for that feature though :().

yeah, I've used the trial...
 
You can use .msstyles which are like normal themes where you select them in the Display Properties => Appearance tab. I prefer those kind becuase, well, you don't have programs running in the background.
 
windowblinds is bad because u can only use the skin while its running. get object dock or watever its called. its the best. google it.

Object Dock is an application which emulates the dock used in Mac OSX... Well, it doesn't 'emulate' it as such, but it's a takeoff of it.

I used a dock quite some time ago and it didn't look close to the good one in Mac OS X

It has to be running software in the background. If you press Ctrl + Alt + Del when running it, you will see the exe file in the processes tab.
 
there is also a way to change themes without any programs, u just gotta patch the windows file and you're ready to change your themes, thats what i did, i found it on belchfire site

Yeah, the file is uxtheme.dll or something along the lines of that. Blue, on another topic, posted an exe file which automatically patches is for you.
