I have been playing around with custumizing windows 2000, and have changes quite a few things around, but I have yet to figure out how to change the color of the taskbar. I want to make it a sky-bluesh color, but not as bright as windows XP has it.

Also, does anyone know of a peice of software that can make windows 2000 skinnable like windows XP?

I'm a little lost, it says that its not for windows 2000 yet. Is there something special I can do to make it work? Or will all of the skins from the site still work with version 3.5?

Yes you need 3.5 for W2K, and yes all skins will work

Oh wow, I'm loving the glassteal skin. The one reason I might have ever considered moving to windows XP is now availible on windows 2000. Thanks so much. This is so nice looking.
