do you find it annoying to have stylish windows xp themes ?

I am usually using windows XP and Linux ..
Here I am talking about windows xp themes, I usually never use any stylish theme but only simple old classic windows theme.
Lately, I thought that many people are using themes why not I ? I searched and among many, decided one theme, it was cool and nice but ultimately after days of use, I decided to switch back to normal classic theme that is simple and usable.
I gave it time to get used to but finally had to move to old classic theme..
So are you simple classic theme lover or you like fancy styles ?
.. Or these fancy style really distract ?

i use the default because modified themes slows down ur pc and sometimes introduces bugs in windows.

ya, that is another reason that those themes sometimes slows down your PC but if you have plenty of resources in your computer .. then ?
Say you have fastest computer available with 8GB RAM and 1GB video memory .. which means that themes can't effect your computer at all then what will be your choice ?

still default theme only.

GOod to know :)

thanks and what do you think on same topic???

some of the themes are good

Thing is about efficiency.. both in terms of productivity and performance. So if a theme is actually increasing productivity then I will not hesitate to use it.

Hi guys,

As ricky rightly pointed out, if we are having plenty of resources, we wont even notice any difference in performance while using the PC. For me my PC is a copy of my Identity, i like it to keep it stylish and cool. 8)
I use windows blind/ crystal XP for latest themes and these sites are too cool in their offering. You have the liberty to choose from any category. Nature, Animals, people and all kinds of categories. They also offer wallpapers, icons etc these are complete PC makeup sites. I would prefer anyone using 256+ ram to try out?(recommended 512MB RAM)

Cheers ;D
