In Desktop X you can create your own Themes using the program itself.

All you do is select the items you want and save it. The help file on it should tell you all you need to know if you can't figure it out. Need anymore info, let us know.

I know that it does it all its self. I have one sorta done. But how do you dl new stuff, like cursors, new windows and such. Where do you put the files at?

I'll try that help thing then i'll answer back with more questions if any. But if you could tell me the directorys skins, and cursors, and icons, and new objects go and stufflike that. That would be nice

Thnx

WinStyles uses alot more to create like a complete setup. But you have to look at the programs for what you want. I'm still learning them. If somebody else pops in, they might be able to help more than me.

If you have CursorXP installed, the file should install itself when you double click on the .curxptheme file.

Colipso: every section on this site needs its own program:
Cursor XP cursors need the Cursor XP program, Windowblinds skins need the Windowblinds program, Desktop X themes need the Desktop X program, etc.

When you're in a section, look at the top of the page, above the skins listing, you'll see a header that gives a brief description of the program with a link where to download it.
