I have a similar theme:



Get a uxtheme.dll patcher for your version of windows (SP1/SP2), and patch it. You can then apply themes from websites ;)

try "StarDock" maybe? I used it a while back, but I've decided that if you want Mac style, just get a mac, cuz you can get themes for Windows to make it look like a Mac, but you just don't get the same feeling as you would when you're actually using a Mac.

Derek, do as i said, and then you can apply custom themes...
Mine is a vista type one.


(I accept no responsibility/liability for any damage this does to your version of windows... applying this theme without patching your dll will result in no titlebar buttons / etc).
To install the theme attached, you need to:

Get a UXTHEME.DLL Patcher for your version of windows, and patch your uxtheme.dll and then reboot your computer

Extract the Vista folder to C:\Windows\Resources\Themes

Open up Display Properties and select the theme.

You can't use XP themes on Vista, i think they unlocked it anyhow... Not sure, my sister wont let me use her Vista PC.
