Sites for Free Desktop Themes for Windows XP...

[Dana]

Anyone know any? I found a few. I was kinda hoping to get a Vista style theme without having Vista or downloading WindowsBlinds.

All I did was click on the style file and it applied it to my Properties Window. If you get a ZIP or RAR file, you need to extract it to C:\Windows\resources\Themes to get the full effect of the shell extensions.

For some of those themes to work you need to first apply the Uxtheme Multi-patcher.
