Style XP is not a skinning engine. It usesMicrosoft’s built-in visual style engine, but enhances it byproviding many useful tools. Style XP can import, select, rotate,and manage themes, visual styles, wallpapers, and logons.
Future versions may support sounds, cursors, screensavers, andpackages of all the above. How does it work? Instead of lines andgradients, the XP user interface natively supports the use ofskinned bitmap controls (a visual style).
This is Microsoft’s own innovation. Style XP includes its ownvisual styles.
Supports Win XP SP2
MAKE SURE you back-up your system BEFORE try this app !
Here are some key features of “Style XP”:
– Zero-Footprint Operation
Choose to have Style XP run in the system tray for easy managementand selection of new styles, or turn Style XP off forzero-footprint operation. No additional memory will be utilizedunless you desire it.
– Native
Style XP skins are zero-footprint because they use the same VisualStyle Source that is built into XP. XP’s Visual Style Engine willload and draw our start button with the exact code used to load anddraw the infamous green start buttons of the original Blue, OliveGreen, and Silver skins.
This is done by performing an in memory patch to XP’s Visual StyleEngine. Style XP does not use SetWindowsHookEx, which cannoticeably slow system performance. Nor does it hook the”Appearance” tab on the Display Properties propertysheet.
– New Visual Styles, Wallpapers, Logons, and Themes

– Accessibility & High-ResolutionFunctionality
Does your monitor operate at 1600×1200? How about 2048 x 1536?Perhaps you have a new LCD display.
At these finer pixel resolutions, the display can exceed 100 DPI.StyleBuilder is designed to build skins which support the higherDPI resolutions so that window controls are easier to see.
Since Style XP skins are native source styles, this useful XPfunctionality is present in its original and familiar form.
– Application Compatibility
Our native design allows us to enjoy the thousands of hours of workput in by Microsoft’s UI team to ensure application compatibility.There is no list of incompatible applications to keep track of.
– Font Sizes
Like the original Microsoft Blue, Olive Green, and Silver VisualStyles, StyleBuilder & Style XP skins support three font sizesNormal, Large, and Extra Large.
These larger font sizes are important, because they are used by theelderly and visually impaired.
– Easy Installation
The new Style XP install takes minutes to download and seconds toinstall. No reboot is required.
