Has anyone got any recommendations for a site/utility that provides free skins for Windows XP? I've tried some in the past but its either been a buggy application that crashes and uses a whole heap of resources or happy hour in amature ville. Anyone got any recommendations?
Skins for Windows? what exactly do you mean?
"skinning" anything is cahnging it's appearance, have a look the aston themes:

I've tried some of the shell replacements but I usually get tired of them and switch back to the classic Windows look. Whew, am I getting old and set in my ways....
I have to admit, though, those are some nice looking skins. I noticed something on one of those that would make me stay away from the Ashton Resource Monitor. Why does a hard drive represent memory?
