Hi,

I'm quite new to the desktop x thingy. I've worked out how to install most themes, but just have one problem. I've downloaded an lcars theme and its only come as a bunch of files and folders. How do i go about installing this?

cheers

Could you perhaps state the exact name of the theme you have downloaded, including the author. I have downloaded eight Lcars themes, all of which came as .dxtheme's.

If you do have a .dxtheme in the folder you speak of, and you have installe DesktopX, then just double-click on the .dxtheme file, and it should auto-install. Tell me if this works.

Do you have DesktopX installed? If not, you need DesktopX to run the theme you have downloaded. I have posted a link below to the software.

If there is no .dxtheme inside, then rename the .zip to .dxtheme

KiloKrash - Sorry I can't find the site where i downloaded it. Nope didn't come with a .dxtheme file.

Bichur - I'll try your idea and rename the file extension.

I'll let you know if it works!

cheers

The file exensions are just another name for 'zip' that the different programs understand.
