http://live.pirillo.com/ – How do you customize Windows XP? Let’s face it: Windows XP’s Luna interface sucks. You could change it to bland silver or puke green, but there’s no way you’re going to be happy with the look and feel of XP. So, what can you do?

You could download a shell replacement program, like WindowBlinds:

WindowBlinds is a program that enables Windows users to completely change the look and feel of Windows users interface. Users customize Windows by using visual styles (skins) created for WindowBlinds. With these skins, WindowsBlinds can change the look of Title bars, borders, Task bars, Start button, Start menu, Progress animations, Toolbar icons, Explorer Views, and virtually every other part of Windows!

WindowBlinds is the only program that can customize the GUI of WindowsXP without having to alter system DLLs.

WindowBlinds has been tested to ensure it works with Windows Vista, so you know it is compatible, reliable, and more secure.

You can also find other shell extensions at Shell Extension City.

Do you have a favorite shell extension or theme to use for Windows XP?
