StampThemes

StampThemes, developed by Active+ Software, is a system utility falling under the System Optimization subcategory. Available in its latest version 1.0.1, this handy tool is geared towards making older applications feel fresh and modern by marking them as 'Windows XP Themes' compliant. The program files, identified as 'StampThemes.exe', enable users to effortlessly transform old applications that lack the XP style into ones that embrace the familiar and updated aesthetics of Windows XP.

For those interested in a blast from the recent past, StampThemes does come with some prerequisites to ensure the older applications look visually appealing once the XP style is applied. Notably, the application must utilize Windows Common Controls, which most applications typically do. However, a caveat exists: applications that use custom draw controls not compatible with the XP style may end up looking unpolished.

Interestingly, StampThemes isn't just about adding the XP style. It offers flexibility by allowing users to remove the XP style from an application if needed. This makes it a versatile tool for those who might need to switch between different visual styles for various applications.

Besides the latest version 1.0.1, an earlier version (1.0) is also available for those who might have specific needs or constraints. Users can easily download this utility for free, making it an accessible option for anyone looking to enhance or modify the aesthetic appeal of their applications.

Pros:

• Useful for making older applications look modern.
• Easy and free download.
• Flexibility to add or remove XP style.
• Simple interface and functionality.

Cons:

• May cause visual issues with custom draw controls.
• Limited to applications using Windows Common Controls.

Overall, StampThemes is a niche yet helpful program for those looking to give their beloved old applications a modern twist or revert them to a classic look as per their preference.
