Try Joesnet themes page for a goodly selection. Be warned that they do not yet support JWM 2.0 which is the latest version I believe.

Hope that helps.

Your wish is my command!

You will find the JWM Themes Exchange under Additional Software, right next to the IceWM Themes Exchange. I've even started it off for you by modifying one of the themes submitted by cb88 in this thread.

Enjoy!

I have used Icewm in the past as the theme management is so simple.

Could you please tell me if I want to add any of these themes to JWM where do I save them and do I have to create a directory for each one?

I would not mind having a go at programming a theme creator for JWM/Puppy but I would need to know more about how puppy handles the files first.

All the best

the themes are in /root/.jwm/themes which is a hidden folder so you gotta unhide the hidden folders but clicking on the eye in rox

the themes are just text files that decribe the colors that should be displayed

for a theme to show up in the theme manager you need to add it to the list in the themeslist file

Posted: **Sat 03 Nov 2007, 17:52**

also a restore defaults button is needed cause it sure is easy to mess up jwm if you alter the themes and it messes up the jwmrc

it seems that now i have to copy ./.jwmrc~ to ./.jwmrc before it will change my theme...

and now it is broke all the way I guess that is what you get for messing where you have no idea what you are doing

Posted: **Sat 03 Nov 2007, 18:24**

You are not alone!!!

Just tried to add one of the themes above and now I the theme cahnger does not work at all.

Will keep investigating

Posted: **Sat 03 Nov 2007, 18:32**

Ok, got it back working

I renamed the .jwmrc to .jwmrcBroke and renamed .jwmrc-previous to .jwmrc

Now to try and get those themes working (ever the optimist

)
