Can anybody give me any addresses of websites about O/S GUI plus what not to do in an O/S GUI.

Thanks.

What to do and what not to do GUI sites:

(very good, if you're making a GUI, READ THIS!)

(good)

Jordan_C has a GREAT idea, download a program that allows you to skin Windows:

http://windowblinds.net/ (get Window Blinds for Win9x and XP)
http://www.stardock.com/products/skinstudio/ (make skins for Window Blinds)

http://www.tgtsoft.com (get Styles XP, only for WinXP, but better than Window Blinds, there is also a free version of it called UXThemeUtil)

Hope that helps you,
