So after re-installing Windows XP a week ago I decided that I was tired of the old blue taskbar and the look and feel in general.  For some time I have been using RightClick to create a menu that can be popped up by right clicking on the desktop.  I love this feature as it is easy access to any program you want without having to go all the way to the start button.  So I had my right click menu, now I need a new taskbar feel.  I looked at the Explorer replacements but decided against them for stability and performance reasons.  Instead I decided to patch my uxtheme.dll and get a third party theme.  The theme I chose was that of Mac OS X Tiger but StudioTwentyEight has a lot of great replacement themes.  So got that going.  Now things were beginning to be a bit different.  I decided to go with one last addon, Freeshade , which allows you to minimize a window up into its own title bar.  Great for quickly organizing too many open windows.  The results can be seen below:
