I have modified a lot of desktop themes to fit my likes, but I have only made two themes from scratch.  I plan on making many more.  These two are of some of my favorite things, pansies and tropical fish.  I have some more great pictures of pansies from the garden that I plan on enhancing for themes.  I also plan on making some Lord of the Rings themes.  If you have any difficulties with these themes, let me know and I will try to help!

This particular theme centers around my favorite flower and my favorite type of music: pansies and Celtic sounding Christian music. The artist is Máire Brennan from her "Perfect Time" CD. The sound files make the theme a little larger than normal, but I think they are well worth the wait. The graphics are original graphics rendered from actual pansies in my garden, including all the icons and cursors. I have included startup and shutdown logos. I had some problems with the screensaver, so I have taken it off the archive for now. The sounds are MPEG Layer 3 Compression so that the files would be smaller.  Because the sound files are so large, I split this theme into 2 separate downloads.  Download pansy.zip (202.36 KB).  Download the pansysounds.zip (1056.54 KB).

I love tropical fish, so I made my own tropical fish theme, complete with sound files, cursors, icons and startup/shutdown logos. The music is some that I recorded from Dvorak's Symphony No. 9.  Download tropicalfish.zip   1,070 KB
