I’d like to theme an old Windows XP or 2003 system to resemble a more modern Macintosh system. I already have a base theme for WindowBlinds, but would like to try finding additional resources such as icons, sound effects, etc…

And apparently thememypc dot net keeps throwing up janky suspicious advertising rather than allow downloads anymore ☹️

    But why, though?

    WinOSX used to be a thing, back in the day, but no idea if still works or if the downloads are now riddled with malware. But worth looking into.

    But seriously, what’s got you looking to do this? I’d totally get reskinning XP a couple of decades ago but now, especially given how many security vulnerabilities riddle XP, I’d only use that thing entirely offline.

      Why? Cuz why not? I still do occasional tweaks to MicroXP/Micro2003…

        Hey, there’s absolutely nothing wrong with having fun however you find it. I’m just really intrigued what you’ve got in store for a Windows XP box that looks like OS X. As in, once you’ve got it skinned/themed, then what happens?

        It’s a really intriguing project!

          LOL!

          It won’t do anything super magic, but it does unlock a few layers of stupid that nobody needs haha!

          It’s all about nostalgia LOL!

            Oooooh. Now I want to go and build an WinOSX box and relive my youth too! Might have to install an old copy of CygWin as well, for good measure (got to have bash on the thing).

          Hit me up later, I don’t think this is the community to share my goofy ass projects on…
