Desktop Themes provide a way of changing the way your computer looks and sounds. Depending on how the author programmed the theme many components of your PCs look and feel can be changed to the "Theme". The sounds you hear when you minimize or maximize a window, the default beep, the startup and shutdown screens and sounds, the background picture, the pointers and various desktop icons may also be changed. To use these themes, you will need either Microsoft PLUS! (An add-on pack for Windows 95) or another utility to display the themes (NOTE: WIN 98 already has a themes installer built in). We have listed a few packages on our "Theme Utilities" page (This page also includes programs to create your own !).

If you want to know what a theme, saver, skin, icon or wallpaper is or if you need help with the installation of the files, please read our FAQ section
