Default XP skins?

Anybody know a good site to find complete XP skins?

I'm looking for a red or blue on black scheme.

wincustomize.com sucks, doesn't actually have full skins, and litestep tried to jack me up with a virus...

Yeah, Wincustomize used to be awesome, but they've gotten WAY too commercial

Try this, Brian:

I used the bricopacks at crystalxp and loved them, especially the Vista Inspirat 2....it is gorgeous. and looks a lot like vista. But i just got WindowBlinds and it is much much more powerful because it makes use of your video card. It also has more skins which you can find at www.windmodify.com or deviantart. (WindowBlinds normally isn't free though. :? )

There is a problem I have though with both bricopacks and Windowblinds....neither will completely skin Internet explorer, so i end up with ugly light blue tabs in explorer against a black background.

IE has nothing to do with it... you still use windows. I want to know if it changes the Taskbar and all that stuff system wide

I use stylexp. works pretty good and doesn't eat a lot of processor or memory resources.
