How do I create themes?

I don't know but if you find a FAQ or tutorial please email me. I get this question ALOT.

How do I install themes?

Simply click the "install new theme" button on the bottom then use the browse button to find your theme archive, or type in the path to theme archive. URLs are accepted also. Alternatively you may supply a directory name of an un-archived theme, in this case the theme is temporarily inserted into the list.

My buttons are disabled!

Is the "Enable KDM Themes" check box checked?

I don't see any themes what's wrong?!

First make sure you didn't 'insert' any themes those are not saved only themes that appear in your theme directory are used. Next check your theme directory it should be located in your $KDEDIR/share/apps/kdm/themes/
