There are hell lot of themes available these days in the form of custom mssstyles which lets you change the look and feel of windows xp easily.
But, the main hindrance for applying custom mss styles on windows xp is due to uxtheme.dll which is a Microsoft system file in windows xp which blocks from using any custom mss styles.
