So i basically use XFCE since my First Time using Linux and im very much fine with it :P tho what i am missing is some Themes outside of the Basic Black and White >.> Especially considering sadly that most XFCE Themes are either made for GTK2 or simply made for KDE there doesnt seem to be many Options still left :( Maybe thats just me Thing but i also dislike the AdLib Themes from https://store.kde.org/p/2320010 for XFCE a lot sadly :( Like itd love to maybe get a Glossy Theme like in WIndows XP the Grey "Metal" Looking Theme or 7s Default Theme >.>

I did actually try out and yes i can defently see the APpeal! :D
Isnt personally my Theme as im not a 95 Nerd at all tho i can defently use it even tho itd prefer XP or 7 :P
But i basically finally did a Mix of using the Aerobird Theme on XFCE and putting that was my XFWM Theme and using Basic High Contrast Theme on Linux :D
tho i did modify my XFCE Menu Bar to a Very Light Blue to match it even tho the Buttons are still White :P
which i kinda prefer in a Way tho XD
Heres a Link to the Theme btw :3 https://www.gnome-look.org/p/2343514

Plenty there. Also how-tos on the more intricate look and feel mods.
