Loading themes?

from WinCustomize Forums

Hi

I am trying to load a theme (Vista Style) but cannot seem to get it to work. Could some one walk me through how to do it, where to put files and whatever else I may need to do. Put the ini file in the Themes folder but it keeps coming up with: 'Would you like to load the dock theme ""?'.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

TIA

Assuming you mean the Vista Style docks by WebGizmos, all you need to is extract all the contents to the ObjectDock(Plus)/Backgrounds folder.
Then you can select the dock in the Appearance section of Dock Properties.
Technically, those are not "Themes", they are Docks.

With OD 1.5 I cannot find where to load a new background / theme. On the OD Properties dialog, there are Themes and Size and Appearance menu items. Under Themes / Load theme I only see Default and my saved Theme. Import a package doesn't seem to work any better.

backgrounds is in the appearance tab

themes are themes = most OD stuff is not themes - downloaded backgrounds need to have the folder moved to OD's background folder

C:\Program Files\Stardock\ObjectDock\Backgrounds

For the next poor slob who can't figure it out - click on "Tabs & Styles", then the Style drop down under Tab's Appearance section.
