Nice Keith, I think I'll "wear it" today!

It's very reminiscent of one of those Japanese animation movies.

Ok Keith, I went to your Deviant page and scarfed up a couple of your backgrounds, and felt motivated to create a Windows theme with four of your pic's and I created a custom color reg file for the theme. I hope you like it, and don't mind if I post it in Ten Forums too(I'll link to your Deviant Art page)Windows 10 Themes created by Ten Forums members I wanted to original used 4 but the zip file was too large(even with 3) so I had to cut it down to 2.
Just download the zip, unblock, extract and double click, it will then be added to your theme library in Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Personalization.

Thank you Cliff. I designed it with a Steampunk theme.

Bummer. My Windows 7 installation doesn't know what to do with themepack files. Am I missing something?

No It works only with 8 and 10. Here is the reg file maybe you can merge that and check just your "orange colored" artwork and reproduce the theme yourself. If not you have the color values and cam change them in Win7 yourself(they are active only for that one theme so if you like it, don't forget to save it.

Color registry file --> View attachment Kado-orange.zip

Also here is a high contrast version, try that. Don't forget to unblock in the zip's properties.

I wasn't here in a while, got Keith's great walls from TenForums.

Win7 should be able to open *.themepack files; it's those *.deskthemepack files made for Win8 and 10 that don't work.

Reg should do it... Maybe you guys know it by now; there is another way: themapacks and deskthemepacks can be extracted by 7-Zip; double-click and apply *.theme file.

Thanks Keith, not me, but no one posts or seems to care I think. WEF is socially dead, except for a couple of the running "games"

Yeah, look at the members active at bottom of forum, sad that. Guess everyone accepted the free Ten. A Guy

Thanks. No one has posted here in a while, so I did.
There are still some hardcore 8 users, or users that have no choice(running on ARM architecture)
