XP Visual Tools has been created to offer users a simple way to improve the appearance of Windows XP by applying certain visual tweaks.

Not just the looks are changed as the suite features a slew of effects that include the modification of the sound scheme and animations.

The bundle brings to the table visual customizations for certain areas of the operating system. It can make the taskbar or the Start Menu transparent up to a certain degree that can be previewed on the spot.

This can be helpful for those that want to add a bit of pizzazz to the desktop environment and check out what lurks behind these elements.

A visual style section can be used to apply the tweaks to a specific application, a folder or a process of an installed program.

The appearance of the operating system can be tweaked further by changing the look on the logon screen. The modification is continuous, which means that the screens changed at a specific interval.

The same applies for the wallpapers, which can be added in bulk to the application and then changed with a frequency specified by the user.

In the end the result of the visual tweaking makes Windows XP look more appealing and the user is never bored because of the constant change of the scenery. Functionality is not affected and in some cases it is even improved.
