    Thanks so much for the quick reply. I created the new theme by making a copy of the aero folder and aero.theme.


    I renamed the new aero folder to "groovy" and the new aero.theme to groovy.theme.
    Inside the new groovy folder. I renamed aero.msstyles to groovy.msstyles

    In en-GB and en-US, I renamed aero.msstyles.mui to groovy.msstyles.mui

    I edited groovy.theme and replaced DisplayName=aero to DisplayName=groovy
    and Path=%ResourceDir%\Themes\groovy\groovy.msstyles

    When I edited the theme, I used the standard aero theme, then rebooted. When I look in resource hacker at the the groovy.msstyles file it shows my new image. I uploaded a screenshot

    I just did some testing and I can confirm them are the correct image numbers.

    Zip up the only groovy.msstyles and post it here and I will look at it.

    You are going to have to start over the .msstyles is corrupt, the images you imported are .jpg and they need to be .png try that and let me know or post a new .msstyles when done and I will test it.

    Hi Jerry,

    I've redone the groovy.msstyles file. I used transparent .png files, but it still doesn't seem to be working. I rebooted after making the changes too. Do you know what the problem might be?

    Thanks,
    Fred

    Hi Jerry, Thanks for testing it. I'm glad the .msstyles file is ok now. I've made a whole new theme, but it still doesn't seem to be working. I just realised, when I copy the aero directory 2 files wont copy. The files are Aero.msstyles_2057_96.mss and aerolite.msstyles_2057_96.mss. All the other files copied OK. I get the error in the screenshot. Could this cause a problem?
