Delete any themes you have now and download the new attachment or redownload it from the direct link. The file size is 52KB!! If you have that zip file it contains the right files: windowsAero_theme (folder) and windowsAero_theme.lwtp!

again, i deleted ALL the themes in the theme folder and i extracted to aero theme to this folder. as soon as i open up limewire all the sudden the limewirepro theme folder appears and so does the limewirePro_theme.lwpt. and it appears as the limewire pro skin. and in the apply skins, all i see is limewire pro, metal and windows classic. by the way the metal and windows classic skins do not work at all. they are not found anywhere but yet they are listed. so as of now the only one that is being used at the moment is the limewire pro skin even though i have the aero extracted in the themes folder. its just not listed in the limewire itself so i cant change the skin from pro to aero skin. help!

i took a chance and it worked. all i did was rename the windowsAero_theme.lwpt to windowsAero_theme.lwtp. like the other themes were labled at the end. all you needed to do was switch the t and p around. thats why it wasnt working. thank you for all your help. thank you once again!!! hey is there anyways you might be coming out with a skin for windows transparancy? (windows vista premium)? thanks a bunch!!!! this skin of yours looks great!

Default Windows Aero v1.0.1

I uploaded a new copy of the theme as an attachment. This should take care of any issues!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

*How to install with Windows Vista:

-Unzip the file into C:/Users/UserName/AppData/Roaming/LimeWire/themes/

If you do not see the AppData folder you have to unhide hidden folders.

Follow these quick steps: How to see hidden files in Windows Vista

-Once you have the files extracted in the the themes folder restart LimeWire and refresh the skins folder by clicking View>Apply Skins>Refresh Skins on the LimeWire Menu

-Then select the theme! If the theme does not enable the first time then reselect it!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

*How to install with Windows XP:

-Unzip the file into C:\Documents and Settings\UserName\Application Data\Limewire\themes

If you do not see the ApplicationData folder you have to unhide hidden folders. Open up Windows Explorer (click 'Start', point to 'All Programs', and then click 'Windows Explorer') On the Tools menu in Windows Explorer, click Folder Options then click the View tab. Under 'Hidden files and folders', click 'Show hidden files and folders'.

-Once you have the files extracted in the the themes folder restart LimeWire and refresh the skins folder by clicking View>Apply Skins>Refresh Skins on the LimeWire Menu

-Then select the theme! If the theme does not enable the first time then reselect it!
