When you’ve made your changes, you return to the Themes control panel,
where all the modifications you’ve made are represented at the top of the
screen. Hit “Save theme,” type a name for your new theme, and click Save.
From now on, the theme you’ve created (well, modified) shows up among
the other themes. Now you can recall the emotional tenor of your edited
look with a single click on that icon.
You can also delete a less-inspired theme (right-click its icon; hit Delete).
On the other hand, when you strike creative gold, you can package up your
theme and share it with other computers—your own or other people’s. To
do that, right-click the theme’s icon; from the shortcut menu, choose “Save
theme for sharing.” Windows asks you to name and save the new
.themepack file, which you can distribute to the masses online.
Note
If your theme uses sounds and graphics that aren’t on other people’s PCs, then they won’t see
those elements when they install your theme.
