Calmira XP is a cosmetic add-on program for Win 3.1 only.Good luck.

Not so sure that would work!

Have a look for Windows 95 Themes. There are 100's of freeware themes available (Just do a seach on Google)

Heres one I found:

yup, it does in fact work...i did it with win98..as i recall i changed the shell' option
from explorer to progman ( i think i did try calmira too, not sure why i ended up
using progman as shell), and then put calmira in the startup group..incidentally, i
didn't lose the 3d menu look after switching to progman..looked pretty sharp.Right
click on the desktop didn't work, howe
