I know ux theme patcher (from neowin.com) cannot do as much as Windows Blinds, but as far as RAM usage goes. Which would use less ram. A simple replacement of a system file, or an entire program that does the same thing. I can use a couple programs that do not run all the time to change icons, but since i dont have to have a program running to apply a skin is it a better idea for skin/theme focused people to just use uxtheme patcher for the windows look itself? Thanks for any input.
