need help with theme manager

from WinCustomize Forums
I recently downloaded the Theme Manager and for some reason I can get the task bars and windows to change skins with what skins came with it. I can't get the suites to load in it. I have gone through everything and downloaded it. I would appreciate if someone could help me and thank you ahead a time. Sorry if this has already been posted.

I brought it up based on comment #2. Since there are several people asking for help, it wouldn't apply across the board...


aahh...okay - don't think shareware comes into play unless it's timed and has run out. other than that, it should still apply according to limitations set on each shareware program.

Dendrial & Teriqw, when you right click the desktop and choose properties, do you get a suites tab?

Well, which is the most important to you at this moment: how to get those skins installed, or using Theme Manager to get them installed? I can't seem to replicate you problem, I have uninstalled my theme manager 2005 and installed the 2004 version, and it downloaded for me the terminator suite and the cybersuite. I also uninstalled and used the AlienGUise that you get with the AlienInvader Suite, it works also, same as the 2004 and 2005.

So I pose a question: when you click apply, do you get a new window (small) with two buttons, one labeled "Advanced"?

I downloaded my today , The only little box I get is 'you have to pick a skin or theme' and yes I have a tab with suites on it but it's blank

go the the themes gallery and download one - sotArt worked for me - I used Firefox, and chose open with, then when Thememgr came up, clicked on sotArt, then apply - which caused it to download required skins.

one the left - after you highlight 'suites' - do you have any listed?
