Description
Having Windows Mobile 6 device makes me wonder if XP might have the same look. This is my attempt to "port" WM6 "crossbow" to xp visual styles.Other credits to Tango Patcher 2006, Windows Media Center Edition VS, Findexer, and others.
Instructions:
Put /Crossbow/Crossbow.msstyles on
c:/windows/resources/themes
replace the explorer.exe with this mod one to have your start menu windows flag for more "crossbow" like.
WARNING!! BACKUP ALL YOUR FILES REGARDINGLY!!
USE ON YOUR OWN RISK!!

Love this.
DO NOT want to see this in other colors.
Would like to see Start button and Close / minimize / resize buttons more interactive when the mouse hovers over them.
That's the ONLY change I'd make.
Really great job and exactly what I've been looking for, especially the menu and selected file highlights.

You're welcome.
One other thing:
The progress bars are still orange. You might want to change them to solid black to match the other screen elements.
Cheers!
