How do I use a windows desktop theme in osx?

[jessi11202]

First if this is in the wrong place I'm sorry. I'm new here. I know that I can't use a desktop theme that was created for windows, but I was told there is a way for me to make my own with the sounds and images given in the theme. How would I go about that? I recently purchased my first mac for personal use, and I'd really like to use a NIN theme I had on my pos pc before, so any help would be great. Thanks in advance.

A PC-theme is not compatible with Mac OS X.

In order to use the theme with Mac OS X, you'd have to do a bit of programming/hacking. If you're interested in trying, check out http://unsanity.com/haxies/shapeshifter

Ironically, I have seen a theme out there to make OS X look like Windows XP. Quite an abomination if you ask me. ::ha::

Here it is...

but, back to topic, all the sounds are dotted about in the library, in hidden folder, but are all there. someone else knows where the specifics are. i actually have no idea.

desktop picture is easy and for icon sets, get, you have to do them seperately for each icon you want to change, at least without any external programs which i don't know about. to do it individualy, "get info" for the app/disk/folder you wanna change, click on the icon at the top of the get info box. it'll highlight. apple+c to copy it, apple+v to paste on top of it.

for mouse cursors, google MightyMouse. it's a third party app by the people who do shapeShifter. it'll sort out cursor sets.

have fun!
