This is a discussion list designed for creators of desktop themes.  Those who do not create themes, but use them and would like to find out more about the subject, are also welcome on the list.  The purpose of this list is to assist desktop theme creators in producing better themes. Discussion topics include but are not limited to issues with the multimedia (graphics, icons, cursors, sounds) of which a theme is composed, software available for creating or using themes, desktop theme ftp archives where authors may publish their themes, and desktop theme websites.

 ALL MEMBERSHIPS MUST BE APPROVED.

FLAMING: It's fine to argue against someone's position on an issue, but DO NOT ATTACK THE INDIVIDUAL in your post. Please exercise respect and courtesy to all members of the list. You don't want to be flamed, so don't do it to someone else.

 
QUOTING: When replying to a message, only quote the part of the original message that
pertains to your post.

 
ME TOO POSTS: If you agree with a post, it's fine to let the original author know--but send it privately to his e-mail, not to the whole list, unless you have something to add to the topic.

 
FORWARDING: Don't forward a message to the list unless it has something to do with desktop themes and the original author of the post has granted permission to forward it. 

ATTACHMENTS: Don't attach a file to the list as some subscribers will have text-only e-mail and be unable to see the attachments. Also, send messages to the list in plain-text rather than
HTML format. 

SUBJECT LINES: Use subject lines that are a good indicator of the content of your message. If you are replying to a post and the "Re:" subject line no longer corresponds to what's in your
post, feel free to CHANGE IT!
