I found a cool tweak in Windows using which you can create a ncie 3d effect in Windows.You need to know how to edit values in the Registry Editor.For safety's sake better back up your registry rather than jacking it up and blaming me for it :)
Here's how you do it:

1.Open up Regedit using Start->Run->Type regedit and hit Enter.
2. Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Colors
3.Make sure the following settings are there,or just edit the values:
ButtonHilight=128 128 128
ButtonShadow=255 255 255


That's just about it.Job done :)
