Reminiscing about custom Windows themes

[Casey]

Back when I still used Windows (especially XP), I was really big into customizing and modding it with software like windowblinds and uxthemepatcher. I feel like this isn't much of a thing at all anymore since Windows is updating so frequently and Wondows has a native dark mode.

Back in the XP days, my favorite theme was easily HmmXP. It was sleak, simple, and felt like a noce balance between the Classic theme and the modern XP interface.

Anyone else use custom themes back then? What did you use?
