Here, is a disgusting but well made xmms/winamp skin for your XP-alike guest account:

it's iceWM running mozilla 1.1 and amsn, by the way, with the xp theme for icewm and the ieskin theme for mozilla. this is the new 'guest' account i created on my computer, so we can let people use it in the flat and not worry about them getting to our files.
My aim is to make this guest account as much like windows xp as possible. It's my belief that my flatmates haven't even noticed the difference yet! if anybody knows anymore ways to customise icewm or get linux to look like windows, then do PM me, it's a little hobby project of mine now!

thats pretty insane... are you feeling well?

i understand what calum is doing. I would do the same thing. When friends come over and use the computer for whatever (internet, music, etc..) they see that i either have redhat8 or osx running. They scream bloody murder and then proceed to talk shit. But if the gui in linux looked like windows. i honestly dont think they will ever notice. They might find something on it they like, go home to their windows machine, then throw a fit that they dont have it on their system, then call me. Thats when i show them the light
Calum:
that's a good approach actually, but i didn't actually think that far.
I'm proud of running linux. My 'windows' start bar will still say linux on it,
'internet explorer' will still say 'mozilla' (although i now have an IE
icon that i will be using), and i'll still have all the emacs, kppp, xmms
and so on running, it's just funny to me to think that windows is really just
its GUI, and i can emulate that just with some free skins and stuff off
the internet! i'll post another screenshot soon when it really looks like xp...
