Personally I use windows blind to get a black theme. It looks much nicer then the XP Black theme, its more customizable as well

or get vista customization pack

That will not get you a black XP theme.

Why use a black XP theme when you can use the vista start menu

It even supports the transparency effects in Vista. So you get the solid windows xp core with the vista interface

I personally can't stand windows blinds. It is a resource hog for my slower PC.
(AMD 2500 XP processor...around 1.8GHz, 1.5GB PC 3200 RAM, GeForce 6600 AGP 8x GFx card 256mb)

Your slower PC is faster then my pc and altho it takes some power away I don't think its too much. Plus the black is totally worth it

I prefer StyleXP myself, it seems to be less of a resource hog from what I've heard.

Also, in slight relation to the topic, does anyone know a good site to get XP themes (preferrably for StyleXP, but Window Blinds works as well)?

Look at the bottom right hand corner. It has all the different things you can download from there.

You can spend DAYS on this site and still not go through all the content. It's phenomenal.

Heh, thanks. I forgot what the site was, it's been a while since I got a new theme.

If you lose your bookmarks, just google Customize Win XP.

I think it's easy enough to remember anyways.
