But how do you use those themes? I downloaded one and all it did when double-clicked was open up my display properties.

@ Jeku,

When you double click on it, if the display properties box comes up, select the theme you installed in the drop-down menu(s). This may work, or you could just use WindowBlinds as per Appoloed's instructions.

If you have a sharp eye, you'll notice folders "DESKTOP#1" and "DESKTOP#2" in there. Yup folks, I went through 3 of these desktops and they just keep piling up.
