As soon as you do that, when you run the jwm theme changer, it will show up. Then when you click on the theme you've made, it will change all the colors, etc.
Ahh, THERE's the key -- i didn't realize it would do that. Plus, your instructions on saving the ping are quite lucid. Thanks!

Yeah, that color file is little confusing to me too
but I have some idea what it does.

Hey dejan555,
I noticed that the names of my icons dont match the ones shown on your site..
IE, "file" instead of "home"..ect..
I used the original icon set for naming, do I need to add the additional names as well...Let me know...
Thx..Jay

Hello (again),
@ steve_s,
VERY NICE!!
Excellent "how-to"!!!
For extra "newbieness" I would add, at the start..
"Go to /usr/local/lib/X11/themes and choose a theme that has similar elements to what you want, IE, has gradiants or has a start button you like, ect, or just use the "Original" theme.
Right click on the folder of the theme you have chosen and select "copy".
Change the name to that of your intended theme, and click OK...
Then open the new theme folder and "hack away"...(see below)..
Save the result, and Viola, your very own theme...

No, they're fine, those are names of items that apear on rox pinboard on desktop. Nice theme, now we have completely blue-ish puppyluvr desktop
I'll update iconset page with these.

Actually you did misspell one icon name it's archive48 and not archiver, that one didn't change on theme switch. Fixed.

Hey, crew…I realized that I had done both of these, that I liked ‘em so much I use ‘em regularly on my desktop, but that I hadn’t shared ‘em.
They are straight up mutations, putting green where there was blue.
The jwm theme is a mutation of WhoDo’s Vista theme, and I’ve labeled it (get this): Vista-green.
And the gtk theme is a mutation of one of the Clearlook gtk themes with 4.2 (Clearlooks DeepSky).
I’ll post the jwm theme on the jwm themes thread and the gtk theme on the gtk themes thread…so, forgive the double post (sort of) but each thread is a different deal…
Enjoy!

I made a cool black theme , I call it 'DGmod'. Just a random name.
'Tis a perfect match for "Blue Carboon" gtk theme.

Nice Mick, also good with dark overglossed gtk theme, I made a similar darkish theme for my dpup, but it's more in vg-black style, I call it "Almost Black" lol. Menu button is also packaged inside, you can change it by editing your ~/.jwmrc file.
It installs in /usr/local/lib/X11/mini-icons/dpup-lin.xpm
Here's the theme.
