Low Profile XP Theme?
Saturday, February 21, 2009 by td854 | Discussion: Skinning
Hi guys, searched around a little bit but here's the situation. I just bought a netbook to use mainly for browsing the web on the go and while watching television. The screen is only 9" and 1024x600 and I'd like to get some sort of low profile theme, aka small window borders, small fonts and small start bar, everything has to be low profile. There's an epically huge amount of skins and themes out here on the net and I just wanted to know if anyone is aware of one off the top of their head that has these types of features. The base skin for XP is just too damn fluffy and the classic theme is too bland.
Can anyone help me out? Thanks in advance!

Hah, no but seriously 
I had it a while back, don't remember any small themes in there, and i really would prefer not to have to go through and set each font, font size and dimension. I won't be using the pc enough to go through all that trouble.
Nice theme but seems like all the window dimensions are similiar to the base xp theme. With a screen this small, every pixel matters. I'm looking for something that would have fonts about the size of the text right below the "WinCustomize" logo at the top of this site.

Tried Mini OS first it was ok, but for some reason the orbs were bothering me, ended up with Marina from this link, very very small window borders and tops, thanks all, great suggestions!
