Requirements:

Windows 95/98, and the Plus! or the Theme Manager which can be downloaded from Microsoft at http://www.microsoft.com or ftp://ftp.microsoft.com.

This theme is best displayed in true color (24-bit) on a 800x600 screen. Someone not running Windows 95 can also assign the sounds, pictures and icons included to their Windows 3.1X setup manually.

I also recommend that you use WinZip for Windows 95 to uncompress these files as they have long names.

Installation:

ZIP: Unzip the ZIP contents into the ...\Plus!\Theme directory (or wherever you keep your desktop themes) and simply run the Theme Manager.

FONT: If there is a font included with this theme, it should be placed in the fonts directory within the Windows directory.

TRANSPARENT TEXT: Included in this theme is a small package called 'Transparent'. This utility will turn your Windows 95/98 or NT desktop icon text backgrounds transparent; allowing your wallpaper to show through. It's completely free, with no splash. The package consists of 4 different programs each is only 25k. To install run the self-extracting program called T-test, it will unzip the contents into the ...\Program Files\Accessories directory, then create a shortcut from one of the four choices to your StartUp folder, and it will be run each time you start your computer. Please read the Transparent41.txt file included in the package for more information on how to use this excellent program.

LOGOS: Also included in this theme is a Logo Install program. When you run the program it will automatically install the logos for this theme and backup your current logos. You can also restore your original logos by RE-running the logo install program.

Personal:
