More color scheme options in XP Pro ??

[97tbird]

In appearance tab, XP Pro offers only Blue, Olive Green and Silver under "color schemes" (borders/frames of windows)...

Is there any way to get some more colors?
I'd really like to have a Black color scheme, so I can have black borders/frames on XP Pro...

any ideas/tips?

Maybe the Royale Noir theme would suit you.

+1 for the Royale Theme. It's the only other theme ever released for XP by MS. I made that the default theme on our base load for all our computers. IMO, it's a more pleasant-looking theme than the XP default.

Royale is the best theme by windows ever.

Try the Microsoft Zune Theme as well. Similar to Royal Noir with a different color scheme. The wikipedia page on Royal has examples of both.
