Hello Harry, and welcome to Seven Forums.

It looks like you have a custom "Red Fusion" theme installed that may be why. What options do you have when you right click on it?

Strange. Are you able to select another theme, and/or change the desktop background to see if it will allow you to save a theme then?

Yep, that's it then. I guess that with a custom theme that there are no save options since it's custom and can't be modified in itself without creating a new theme. If you save a theme, then select the "Red Fusion" theme, do you still have the saved theme in your "My themes" area, or does it disappear as well?

You should be able to use the "Red Fusion" theme as is without being able to make any modifications to it if that is the one you are wanting to use. It's should be fine this way.

it does not apply though. the color stays the same from the last theme.

Oh, well I guess there's some sort of problem with the theme. You might check with Sergio to see if he can help modify, or get you some of the individual items in the theme so you can create your own theme with it.
