Oh. I thought you said that you were having trouble finding your themes folder

Check out these threads. They refer to LimeWire but same goes for FW.

Note: for Frostwire rename your .zip to .fwtp or it won't be recognised!!
Then just "refresh skins" and it should come up.

Am i right in saying that FrostWire uses the exact same themes as LimeWire, extensions and all?

It's *.fwtp instead of *.lwtp. Aside from that, yes, it's all the same.

What about if you download a LimeWire skin for FrostWire and just change the extension?

I think it will work. I haven't tried it but I don't see any difference in the contents.

Thumbs up I can help....

Open--My computer (before you move on click on tools/folder option/view/show hidden files and folder then apply and ok) now open C drive/documents and settings/owner/application data/frostwire/themes....
now leave that window then open another window and find the location where u download/saved the theme that u like, then drag drop/move that file to the theme folder (the first window that u open) now the important part...right click on the theme file that u just drag drop/move and rename it (SAMPLE..black theme.fwtp) remember just change the last part right after the dot to fwtp. Now open ur frostwire then click view/skin/refresh skin...now again click view/skin you should see the theme that u just download. Note some theme doesnt work so just keep looking...
I hope that solves it coz thats what i did..

Try here for Windows: https://sabercathost.com/folder/1231...stWire_Windows

Check http://www.gnutellaforums.com/limewi...le-images.html for a quick reference to what skin is what. I cannot recall if that is a complete list but there's over a hundred sample images.

I forgot one of the previous host sites closed down earlier in year, and the other host site hosting skins requires membership of that host site to download. Thus I've uploaded them to two other sites to cater for this within the last few minutes.

I hope you are referring to FrostWire4 Skins and not Windows system desktop images.
