Uxthemepatcher not working

[Nimbi]

Hi, I am trying to download dark theme for windows 8.1, can you recommend me one without installing uxthemepatcher?

The website is already gone

Sorry to say any Visual Style in Windows will require either UxThemePatcher to work.

Here is the link to UxThemePatcher if it helps. The website is still up and running:
