!!!Warning!!! You must have the Microsoft Plus! pack installed
to utilize this package. This is also designed as a high color
mode theme, so you might get unpredictable results if you are
running your display in 256 color mode.
And before I go further, a big round of thanks to Darkwulf
for making sound samples, selection of font, and getting
this whole thing started in the first place.
Instructions:
1. Using Winzip (recommended, though any other unzipper that
can handle long filenames should be OK), extract the
files to an empty directory. I created a new directory
called C:\program files\plus!\themes\Balto theme.
2. Go to Start -> Control Panel.
3. Click on Fonts.
4. Use the folder browser and go to the directory where you
unzipped the files. The Font "Matura MT Script Capitals"
should appear in the list of fonts window.
5. Highlight the font and click OK.
6. Close the Fonts window and then click on the Desktop Themes
section on the Control Panel.
7. Click on "Other..." in the Theme: pulldown menu.
8. Go to the directory where you put the files, and click
on Balto.theme. Click on OK, watch the files load,
and off you go!
Things that will eventually be added or changed: The maximize
sound. I couldn't get anything that sounded right, but
eventually there will be something different for it. There
is also no screen saver, startup screen, or shut down screens.
If anyone wants to volunteer for programming a nifty 'northern
lights' plasma effect for the screen saver, let me know...
