Help for a Newbie?

Hi..

I am searching for complete xp themes without downloading hundrets of components... why do I need for mouse cursors or Icon Packages special programs? I am totaly confused. So many programs, so many addons, tools and much more of single parts of complete themens...

Why cant I download ONE Tool-Package with ONE installation routine. And why dont you make COMPLETE themes so I dont have to search for Cursors, Wallpapers, Icons, Skins etc. fitting to the theme I want?

Is there any german guide? I have no really problems with english but most of the english sites are very overloaded and userunfriendly.

And a last question: If I register DestopX (Object Desktop), can I download the file after I typed in my credit card number? Or have I to wait for Monday?

jurastudent...if you are new to skinning you perhaps should be made aware that there are 'hundreds' of skinnable programs available, many with entirely different formats, or methods of skinning.
Object Desktop is just one 'group' of skinning applications [one of the more 'complete' ones], and has a manager to help with installing the 'components'.
An OS GUI is quite a complex thing, with many 'parts' requiring individual attention, eg, the 'windows' themselves are quite different animals to the cursors, hence there are two separate proggies to handle their 'modification'.

Re your final question, I think you need to receive the reg. number by email first...[it's a long time ago for me and they say memory is the first thing to go]...

If you get object desktop this includes the entire package so you can use 'winstyles'. This section "themes" so you don't have to search.
