Looking for XP themes & Applications

[PIKACHUU]

Hi all, im here on a mission to Pimp out my Windows XP. I've seen a lot of nice looking desktops on "Post your desktops" topics months ago. Can you guys recommend me some nice looking ones? Thanks in advance for replies.

I used to run bblean but it got to be too much of a hassle.

But... how? Once you fiddle around with it to suit your needs, you don't EVER have to mess with it again!

I guess I should have elaborated xD

My mom used the same PC as me at the time, and she was too dumb to figure it out (she can barely work a computer with the basic settings on) so it was too much of a hassle to switch it on and off.

And adjusting isn't easy for me lol. Except to OSX, that was great.

Hey ShadowOp, do you know of any good rainmeter sites?
So far those I've gotten are pretty dead links..
