HI!
Thanks for trying out my theme. Included in this theme package
are the wallpaper, the cursors (animated and not), the icons,
the wavs (sounds), and logos (startup & shutdown screens).
Sorry, no screensaver at this time!
To the best of my knowledge,nothing featured in this theme
is copyrighted other than the original artwork and music
(which I do have permission to use).
Please visit the websites of the artists that are featured in
this theme and tell them Sharly sent ya!

______________________________________________________________
In order to use this theme you will need either MicrosoftPlus!
or a similar theme manager. Softseek has a good selection
of theme manager shareware programs that work well.
http://www.softseek.com/Desktop_Enhancements/Desktop_Themes/Utilities_and_Tools/
These programs allow ease of theme installation on you computer. All
you do is open the program, click on icon with theme name, press
apply and Bob's yer Uncle...all of the theme will be applied (except
logos, more on that later).
_______________________________________________________________
THEME
*This theme package should work on both Windows95 & Windows98.
*Also: the sounds were created using MPEG3 compression...if you
load out the theme and the sounds do not play you will need to
go to Microsoft and dowmload Netshow at:
http://www.microsoft.com/msdownload/netshow20/05000.htm
________________________________________________________________
The Shad.zip file has the path as well as the directories.
IF YOU HAVE MICROSOFTPLUS! OR THE DIRECTORIES: PLUS! & THEMES ALREADY
EXIST ON YOUR COMPUTER UNDER PROGRAM FILES:
Just transfer what you find under each directory to the corresponding
directory on your computer.
In your unzipped directory, using Windows Explorer cut (or copy)
Shadbahk.Theme to your Themes directory ( it's icon has a big red
letter A on it)......
C:\Program Files\Plus!\Themes\
Then cut (or copy) the directory Shadbahk also to your Themes directory.
C:\Program Files\Plus!\Themes\Shadbahk
If you move the Shadbahk directory then all included files as well as
the morecions subdirectory will go as well.
IF YOU DO NOT HAVE MICROSOFTPLUS! AND THE DIRECTORIES: PLUS! & THEMES DO
NOT EXIST IN YOUR PROGRAM FILES DIRECTORY
In your unzipped directory, highlight (one mouse click) Plus! directory,
click on Edit (top of screen), click on copy (or cut); then highlight the
Program Files directory in your C:\ drive, keep your mouse pointer on the
Program Files directory and right click your mouse, click on paste from
the popdown menu.
MAKE SURE BEFORE YOU CLICK ON PASTE THAT THE PROGRAM FILES DIRECTORY
IS THE ONE HIGHLIGHTED....OR ELSE YOU WILL COPY FILES TO WHATEVER DIRECTORY
IS HIGHLIGHTED!!!!
When you are done your files should look like this:
- (C:)
- Program Files(directory)
- Plus!(subdirectory)
- Themes (subdirectory)
Shadbahk.Theme (icon)
- Shadbahk (subdirectory)
- moreicons(subdirectory)
___________________________________________________________
LOGOS
Three logos are included in this package:
logo.sys = startup logo (animated)
logow.sys = wait while your computer shuts down found
logos.sys = ok to shut off your computer
BEFORE YOU COPY THE NEW LOGOS PLEASE RENAME YOUR OLD ONES OR THEY
WILL BE LOST! BEEN THERE...DONE THAT!!
under C:\ you will find logo.sys - rename oldlogo.sys
under c:\Windows you will find logow.sys & logos.sys - rename to
oldlogow.sys and oldlogow.sys.
You can leave them where you found them or create a subdirectory
called logos where you can put all your old and new logos into.
I would recommend renaming them according to what they represent
rather than using oldlogo.sys, such as: cloud.sys, cloudw.sys,
& clouds.sys. That way you know what each logo is!
Copy logo.sys to your C:\ drive
Copy logos.sys & logow.sys to your Windows directory.
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU DELETE FILES THAT ARE
NOT LOGO"S!!!! BE CAREFUL WHEN DELETING!!!
When you are done your files should look like this:
- (C:)
logo.sys
oldlogo.sys
- Windows(directory)
logos.sys
oldlogos.sys
logow.sys
oldlogow.sys
