Anyone have a nice, clean XP theme that I can download?

What's up with my line smoothing (anti-aliasing?)? Look at the picture below, it's so jagged and rough. Is this normal? (see attachment in previous post)

it could well be fixable - I just dont know how. I didnt have clear type turned on - I have now & it still looks the same ;)
I wonder if mac hardware/software is that much better - my monitor is fairly good & most stuff looks very good on it - they possibly just avoid graphics that will look like crap (I mean look at MS's history of lovely graphics :'( )

I do like what you've done on the left there..what is that, by the way? Are those drives? Did you just take the drive buttons and stack them vertically?-superboyac (August 10, 2010, 12:17 PM)

Just drag the appropriate toolbar to wherever you'd like it in the lister - you need to make sure the toolbar drag bars are turned on.

it looks like you have a couple of things there that are not drives. how did you do that?

See my post here for my drive toolbar which adds things that aren't drives.
EDIT: To turn on toolbar drag bars you need to unlock the toolbars, ie. Right-click on a vacant spot on a toolbar and untick 'Lock the Toolbars'.

sorry superboyac, I missed those queries :-[
thanks 4WD for answering! I actually set it all up (or most of it) manually years ago myself.
There are a few tricks that I'm no longer sure how to do -
~ 'pushing' the buttons in the toolbar to the top and bottom of the window (but adjusting to window size) but maybe that happens naturally, I dont know.
~ keeping the toolbar from getting wide (I like the narrowness of the column in my one) - I think that might be simply keeping the text content short (?)
They're mostly drives, the first two are Arbeitsplatz & Eigene Dateien (a hangover from my last XP which was in german = My Computer & My Docs)
CD is optical drive
P is (left/right click) programme folder/ portable 'install' folder
S is software-download-folder / screenshots folder

Not trying to be spammy, but I really do have a good collection of WinXP themes on my blog. These are my personal favorites.

Some great finds! (Nice blog too.) Glad to see my old fav Aurum again.
SoWhite and Silence are tempting me as we speak. ;D
( Rather exquisite redhead on one of those wallpapers too! Always a big plus AFAIC. ;) :-[ )
