Default Windows Themes?

I am looking for a theme I think, just for my taskbar, I hate the blue and green colors, I am looking for a charcoal or black taskbar, and maybe a darker colored button, but I only want the taskbar, not all of the other things such as a new mouse, window layouts, etc. Do that make such things?

well, i would say Window Blinds, but that does the task bar, and the windows, plus is slows down your computer a lot.

or of course, you could just right click the blank desktop and click properties...go to the appearance tab, make sure the "windows and buttons" menu is at "windows xp" and change the "color scheme" menu to what ever you like...i like the silver one!

Go to wincustomize.com, download window blinds and get Longhorn 5203 WB skin, use the Black (not compact or whatever) its mainly taskbar, its charcoal and DEAD sexy.
