Which theme do you use in Windows, XP or Classic? Which color scheme do you use? Why do you use the one you use?

Found on Bash.org [erno] hm. I've lost a machine.. literally _lost_. it responds to ping, it works completely, I just can't figure out where in my apartment it is.

Here maybe?[^] I honestly can't remember where I got it but I think that MS have if for download somewhere, just google for "Royale XP" that's the name of the files or email me and I can send you a zip with the theme in it if you want (I think anyway).
I have no idea what I just said. But my intentions were sincere.

Aero with a dark-blue color to the glass. I was running Vista with the classic theme over the weekend and it was just... well, "odd" is the only way I can describe it. It wasn't bad-looking, more like out-of-place. Anachronistic, if you will.

I pretty much just use whatever comes out of the box, so XP. Except in the Control Panel, i switch that to Classic view.

When I'm using Windows XP I use the default blue theme. I have done for the last five years (or however long XP has been out for now). When I using Vista I use the default theme. I tried the various colours, but ended up back on the default. I use them because they work best for me, and I work best with them.

The blue theme is ok. I like the XPize theme better though, it looks more modern.

Classic, Standard Color Scheme minus the gradient bars (so Screenshots look good at 16 colors)

Why does it need to look modern? It's a computer, not an iPod.

Classic, less space taken up by the theme that way with a desktop colour of r=66, g=0, b=99.

Classic. Default color scheme. Because it's reasonably fast and stays out of my way. I used to use Watercolor, but got tired of patching uxthemes, so now i just don't bother. And yeah, way to go MS, requiring binary patched system files for 3rd-party themes. I could understand, maybe, if the system-supplied theme wasn't so gaudy and useless... but this just screams "we don't have a plan! or a clue! or a UI designer who doesn't spend his days watching Tellytubbies!" :^)

Watercolor Lite, with Silver color theme. Thats the one that was planned for XP before MS came up with the bulky blue/silver/greeney_weird XP theme. Looks more or less like the old style win98, but..better. IMO.

Classic, absolutely. The cutesy XP Fisher-Price interface is for toddlers.
