Unhappy I simply can't find any theme folder!!!


I am going nuts!! I have searched and searched completely for a theme folder in my computer. I would love to have the red skin for my Limewire. I am at a complete loss.

I have two computers. I had no problem with my older computer. I just bought a new laptop. I just downloaded Limewire. I can't get this new skin to apply. Please help me!

Kindly,
Gina

If the new computer has Windows XP or Vista you have to change the
settings in the file browser to stop hiding those folders.

The instructions for that are in "Where to Install a New Skin"

I will try to make this as simple as possable. This is how I did it. Save the Limewire theme to your desk top for easy access, next remember where you downloaded it? The second step shop you for example where to find it, c/drive whatever then the name kevin, paste this entire thing in your search bar for your computer, change the name from kevin obviously to whatever you used for limewire and then hit search. it will show you a box w/ themes ect... from your desktop drag and drop your theme which you saved to your desk top. you should be able to see it in your drop down now, apply, if it does not change your theme immediately you may need to restart limewire, this should work for you, good luck.

That's because you application data file is hidden. Go to My Computer and change the settings to indicate that you want the hidden files shown. It should then be under this file: c:/Documents and Setting/your name/Application Data/Limewire/Themes I believe. Your application data file is a hidden file and therefore you won't see it. Hope this helps. Jennye
