Style XP is not a skinning engine. It uses Microsoft's built-in visual style engine, but enhances it by providing many useful tools. Style XP can import, select, rotate, and manage themes, visual styles, wallpapers, logons, bootscreens, icons, and explorer bar. Future versions may support sounds, cursors, screensavers, and packages of all the above. How does it work? Instead of lines and gradients, the XP user interface natively supports the use of skinned bitmap controls (a visual style). This is Microsoft's own innovation. Style XP includes its own visual styles.

Application Compatibility

Our native design allows us to enjoy the thousands of hours of work put in by Microsoft's UI team to ensure application compatibility. There is no list of incompatible applications to keep track of.


Font Sizes

Like the original Microsoft Blue, Olive Green, and Silver Visual Styles, StyleBuilder & Style XP skins support three font sizes Normal, Large, and Extra Large.

These larger font sizes are important, because they are used by the elderly and visually impaired.



Easy Installation

The new Style XP install takes minutes to download and seconds to install. No reboot is required.
