ok most the graphics in that theme were made by a fellow named doodle bug.the themes name is TurtlesoupII. i modified the skins and built new stuff out of old parts from various turtlesoup skins he had made.{mainly the litestep and sonique skins}. i built it for my personal use ..i have been trying to track down doodle to obtain permission to upload them, so every body can enjoy them...til then i can only share them in a screen shot ...
u can download the TurtleSoupII litestep skin(its at deviant art) and the sonique skin(its at soniques home page )and try to build it your self if you would like ....
not only may you find that u may build it to your likeings better. but you will get a good idea on how images are made, used, shadowed, textured, Etc.
remember tho, litestep is a desktop replacement .. not an enhancement. it replaces in windows the default shell ( AKA desktop). even tho the new builds are very stable and run well, litestep is not be jumped in to blindly. read all u can abt it and any other desktop replacement and /or enhancement..also theres a stiky topic{litestep help} at the top of the message boards main page .. please read it and read all the info posted in the links, if you want to dive in to the world of litestep....
if you need any help with litestep please post questions there
for me it has been a long road filled with headaches but once u get the hang of it it can be very rewarding.........

well it is a old litestep theme and litestep is open source program ( meaning that any and all who wnt to modify and update it can .. litestep had evolved {program wize} but many of the older themes, includeing turtlesoupII are not compliant with the new builds of litestep...that means that either the author , or another like me has to rebuild the way the graphics are applied with the new build...
sadly many great themes are being dropped off the face of the internet because authors dont have time or arent interested in old works to update them
as new builds of litestep are being built so are new themes the old themes cant work the way they are .. so servers and hosts are removeing old nonupdated themes to save space ..theres only 2 hosts i found that still host this peticular theme ...its a shame that such art work is being lost ...

not only is it against the code of skinners .. but it's against the law ...all images u make are by law yours and yours to do with as u see fit ...they are protected under copyrite ...you can take anothers image and change it as you see fit.. but it must remain in your possession..{for personal use only}.. unless you get the original authors permission to distribute it ...
that is why til i get doodles permission i cant do anything but show screen shots ...
