Does anyone know of a good site to get free desktop skins for windows XP? I used to use Alienware's Skins from the Skin Factory, but have gotten bored with em. I've also used window blinds before, and while it's cool, it sucks that they only offer a trial period of Window Blinds. I'm cheap and don't want to pay for it. Haha. Any links would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
 
Skins meaning wallpaper or that does that include 3d objects like the Start taskbar and explorer windows? Windows Blinds more or less changes themes as well as wallpaper while the advanced in the appearance section will have a selection of solid colors to somewhat match up with the endless amount of bmp and jpg wallpapers you can find.
 
I mean skins that will change the theme style of your basic XP. Windows is too bubbly for me. I wanted to find something a little darker and would look cool. Something that can change the icons, background, internet exploror window, start window, etc...

Personally I simply use a basic type theme where you can adjust that easily at any given time. Besides custome themes for XP there are also Vista style themes for XP to take a quick look at if you really want diversity. Here I use the more classic look and then decide on a wallpaper if one is to be used.
