    The .exe's from themexp are just generally installers. What they do is install the theme you have chosen into the C:\windows\resources\themes directory :)

    Some themes will still come in .zip format but I have noticed a trend for themes from themexp to now be packaged into a semi professional installation package ;)

    thanx. but when I d/l them then open style xp to install them as a new visual style it doesnt recognize it.

    Like when I open the folder where I saved it at it doesnt even show it. it says its suppose to be a .msstyle I think....
