Save this following text (beginning with Windows Registry Editor...) to a .reg file and open it. Then go into the Themes tab on Display properties and select "More themes online..." and it will take you to Customize.org!

=== BEGIN REGFILE (do not save this line) ===

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersio
n\Themes\DownloadSites\100]
"DisplayName"="@themeui.dll,-2015"
"URL"="http://customize.org/"

=== END REGFILE (do not save this line)



ALTERNATIVELY:

=== BEGIN REGFILE (do not save this line) ===

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersio
n\Themes\DownloadSites\101]
"DisplayName"="Go to Customize.org..."
"URL"="http://customize.org/"

=== END REGFILE (do not save this line) ===

This will add another option labeled "Go to Customize.org..."

For people that like to customize every aspect of their PC (like in the old days of VP) this is nifty and cool. Especially if you can add multiple options. Good find.

However I may be blind or just tired, but I don't see the "more themes online..." thing in display properties.

hmm i think this is actually very cool, not that i'd ever use that link, but still, you could use it when you set up someone's system and make it go to a really weird place...

This is quite a nice find. I don't often use that link but the fact that you've done some investigating into it, to make it that little more custo-ish is cool.

Keep hitting us with stuff like this, which is a little more useful.
