Unhappy Windows custom theme taskbar length

I've downloaded a new windows taskbar theme called area o4. Though i've tried many different XP themes this is the 1st time i have encountered this problem. My system tray is too long and therefore it's slightly outside my monitor length. Any registry help or any help whatsoever for that matter would be very much appreciated.

Thanks in advance, Merlo

Hello Merlodicus

Welcome to PC Help Forum

Well I usually find that these things can contain all manner of weird registry altering code so I'd uninstall it personally.

I don't bother with that kind of thing anyway but I'm sure some of the members can put you on to a site that has legitimate themes.

Default XP Themes

Anyone have any site recommendations for xp themes other than Customize.org? Looking for a green and black very simple theme.

Hello Merlodicus, Welcome to the forum!

I am sure some of our staff and members will be along shortly to throw some ideas your way

Personally I have never used a customisation pack for my OS so I can recommend any for you!

A green Vista theme can be found here - not sure if thats the type of thing you are looking for though!

Regards,

Smokeycheech

I'm looking for a theme similar to the one im currently using to suit the rainmeter desktop skins i made. I'd try and make a theme myself but i don't know the first thing about it. Here's a pic of my desktop to spring any ideas you may have
