Indeed you can - see here for some Microsoft-sanctioned ones, or just do a search in your search engine of choice.

Personally I always turn themes to the Windows Classic version with all the shiny turned off, as I prefer the higher responsiveness & performance, but to each his own.

You've posted this twice, with the second thread being posted after I replied to the first one...
