Change in Appearance - LXDE to look like Windows XP

Post by toforumsmierdzi »

Hi. I wonder whether there is a set of icons, wallpapers, themes, etc. which allows graphics look like a little lxde to Winows XP? Pack transformation? Or something similar? I need this because my mother is accustomed to the look of Windows XP:)
Excuse me, with my poor English.

As far as just a one click installer to make LXDE look like Windows XP. I don't know of such a thing. LXDE is lightweight so a trade off is the user needs to put some effort into getting LXDE to look like how ever that users preferences are. Like in my thread.

So some skill will be required by you to get your Moms Laptop to look the way she wants it to I guess.
