I'll second Stardock's stuff; Object Desktop is just great--more than just good looks to, as it adds functionality to all window functions.

I've always enjoyed their apps.  However, if you have a low end system, stick with the standard windows theme.  If you have RAM and processor to spare, make it look pretty.
