You do if you want one that doesn't conform to the boundaries set by sticking to the standard explorer themes setup. StyleXP allows you to have some pretty wierd themes that would otherwise not be possible.

the file that manages the themes in winxp is uxtheme.dll

 

by default it is locked, but there is an unlocked versions floating around out there that allows you to use any theme you use, you need a app that would replace the protected dll w/the one that isn't protected; which is what I did

 

style xp doesn't unlock the dll, it instead patches a file over it, thus taking up ram

You can try ResEdit from the people who make styleXP.  I don't know if it can make themes from scratch, but you can use it to EDIT other people's visual style's.

Create crap in photoshop > Import to Resedit > Make style!

 

 

It's harder then it looks.
