I know this will sound very stupid.

I know this is stupid but you'll understand why.

Ok. as the title suggests I need a skin that is really stupid.

I have windows vista ultimate edition installed on my school laptop because I broke the os because I was hacking the content blocking program on it. The new version caused some problems.

So. The school computers used windows xp professional edition 32bit.

I have found several skins but none of them will download.

Can anyone point me to a skin that would work on vista to make it easier for me to hide the fact I have vista on here.

I've already gotten caught once because I had an animated background when I was in school.

So can anyone help??

You could put the Royale skin on it, but you will need Windowblinds for it to work.

What problem do you get when you try to download skins (I assume from here)?

innovative is perceptual and subjective
he's trying to backtrack and/or conceal his disregard for rules and the property of others.

odds are he's also trying to run a cracked version of vista

k guys...call me naive...now that you mention it Bitchur that would make perfect sense....I could see an adolescent doing that + on application realizes its corrupt...+ well, the downhill slide begins from there...however when you read the post, it doesn't indicate there is a current problem, only a past one + he is trying to skin Vista to look like XP, if you can believe, because he is utilizing an institutional PC + of course customization would be verboten...but odds are Bitchur, you sage man, that he is using a pirated version of Vista at school + wants to conceil that...don't think an adolescent at 14 is going to run out for the latest OS @ what price point ? with everyone lately talking how expensive it is to buy Vista + the supporting hardware.
