    Extracting pictures from themes


    Hello,

    Is there a way I can extract pictures as .jpgs or any other single picture files from downloaded themes?

    Thanks!

    Edit: Yeah I noticed I spelled theres in my title :/

    You sure can
    Just look in C:\Users\<your login name>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Themes\<The theme of your choice>\DesktopBackgrounds

    You can even add pics there to be incorporated in said theme (just number them like the originals)

    Welcome to sevnforums
    This info comes from this tutorial. Theme Pack - Create, Save, Install, and Delete
    1. Download and save a .themepack file of your choice to your desktop.
    NOTE: For example, the Example.themepack file used in OPTION TWO.

    2. Double click on the .themepack file to install it on your computer.
    NOTE: This will install the .themepack to a folder with the themepack name in the hidden
    C:\Users\User-Name\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Themes folder.

    3. You will notice that this .themepack file is now your current theme and has been added to the Personalization window under My Themes. (See screenshot below)

    Have a look at it. Hope this helps
