1:\ You need a modified Uxtheme.dll then you can use 3rd part themes.

2:\ You need to make a theme file to use.

yes...but uxtheme.dll is already patched in windows xp sp2 GOLD EDITION!!! ( just released )!!! so there is no need to patch it now!!!

but what abt the icons??

Posted (edited)
You would have to hack Shell32.dll to add your own icons to it.

ok...i will edit...but after modifying what to do?? just to replace modified shell32.dll with older one??? or have to do other changes with it??
