#10058 Perfect way to customize Windows Vista

Step 1.) Pay an outrageous amount of moneys for a POS vista comp
Step 2.) Take your newly purchased PC/Laptop to an overpass - preferbly over a thruway
Step 3.) Open box and remove from packaging
Step 4.) Laugh and toss your new PC over the bridge into oncoming traffic
Step 5.) Collect remaining pieces from thruway (this step is a bit dangerous)
Step 6.) Take your new PC home and tape random pieces on the side of your cats litterbox

Viola! Customized Vista ftw :woot:

P.S. Vista sucks more than a Hoover

#12256 Once you have the program downloaded and installed, click visual styles

From there click on whichever style you like, you can modify each style in some way. Then click on apply style to current theme.
For changing other things you would just click on the part that you want changed. I would not personally recommend doing the boot screens because it changes some you your actual windows bios.
A good site to find more skins to download for free is themexp.org.
This is the bacis of the program, if you need from the start to finish I can do it. Sorry this took so long too ive just been busy doin stuff for other people online
