They are not present on Windows XP.
Additional "Themes" are available with the Windows XP Plus! pack.

You can also download themes from http://www.themexp.org. See their page on
how to install the themes, which uses StyleXP, a third-party product. There
is also a (free) way to do it using a patched version of uxtheme.dll, but I
wouldn't recommend it if you're inexperienced.
