Winter is upon us, and with it the holidays. The media blitz starts up just after Thanksgiving here in the U.S. as we're inundated with images of Santa Claus, Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, stockings hung up by the chimney with care--the works. If you'd like to celebrate the season yet avoid Christmas overkill, check out this Winter Windows 7 theme.

The Winter Windows 7 theme is ideal for people who want to dress up their desktop for the holiday season--yet couldn't stomach another Christmas-themed wallpaper. (If you like this desktop theme, you may also enjoy Lonely Landscapes.)

Note: To install the Windows 7 theme, just unzip the archive file and double-click the themepack within. Windows does the rest.
