NOTE!: YOU MUST HAVE EITHER MICROSOFT PLUS OR
SOME OTHER SOFTWARE THAT IS CAPABLE OF RUNNING
THEMES. WITHOUT THAT, THIS PACKAGE WILL NOT
WORK FOR YOU!
YOU ALSO MUST HAVE "AUDIO COMPRESSION" INSTALLED ON YOUR
SYSTEM. TO VERIFY THIS, RUN ADD/REMOVE PROGRAMS IN THE
CONTROL PANEL. CLICK THE WINDOWS SETUP TAB AND DOUBLE-
CLICK ON THE MULTIMEDIA COMPONENT. THERE YOU WILL SEE
AUDIO COMPRESSION AND THE BOX SHOULD BE CHECKED. IF NOT,
CHECK IT.
If you need a program that will allow you to use themes,
cruise over to www.winfiles.com or www.tucows.com. There
are several freeware/shareware programs to choose from.

Thank you for trying out this theme. If you want some tips
on making your own desktop themes, visit my homepage.
Here's what you can do to customize this theme to your
desktop...
CHANGING WALLPAPER RESOLUTION
The theme comes to you setup for an 800x600 desktop. If you
notice, I have included two versions of the same background
image. One is for 800x600 desktops while the other is for
1024x768. I've done this because Windows doesn't do a very
good job at resizing the background. If you want to change
from 800x600 to 1024x768, follow these steps...
1) Open the .theme file in a text editor (i.e. notepad).
2) Find the background's filename (search for .jpg)
3) Replace "800x600" with "1024x768".
4) Save the file.
Now when you load the theme again, it will use the new
background.
