mondine is an unknown quantity at this point
Probably one of the most common sets of themes are for WindowBlinds, by Object desktop. It's not paticularly inexpensive, but there are a lot of skins available on community websites made by hobbyists, for free download. They also have their own "Skin Studio" for creating your own.

In general, I don't think that themes and skins can be harmful to your computer. They could become a little glitchy on less-powerful systems, as they tend to be 'resource-intensive'.

i find it depends on how far you go, changing the 'OS' startup and/or shutdown screen can harmful with out good coding.

http://xptheme.info this is a good reliable xp theme site, but i thinkyou may have to register.

Go to

http://www.neowin.net/forum/

Scroll down to

'Customizing Windows XP'

Click on that,

then click on

'Completed Visual Styles'

And take a look at each thread. Each thread should have a screenshot and a download url for loads of free themes. I've used some of them before and they are alright

Regards,
JB
