Im new to this but i am trying to learn, i have tried and experimented with this and completely messed my PC up...lol...Im using XP, i have it installed and i would like to change the background image, once i have learnt how to do this i will experiment further with different options. Thank you for your time, at the moment i am using the default shell that comes with Omars download.

I know HTML and JAVASCRIPT,Im also an advanced graphics editor for a few sites and an HTML editor. is it anything like them at all?

I presume you mean change the wallpaper? You can just go into the Theme Switcher (LSTS.exe - link should be in your popup) and change the wallpaper in there.

If you want to have a keyboard shortcut or popup for eg to change between wallpapers in a particular directory, you could try lswchanger.dll (avail from loose-screws.com etc) which you would load by putting

LoadModule "$LitestepDir$lswchanger.dll" in the step.rc file (the one for the theme) with all the other LoadModule lines, then adding
*wallpaper .center c:\windows(or whatever) somewhere below.

Obviously don't forget to put lswchanger.dll in your litestep directory ;)

Add a keyboard shortcut say
*Hotkey CTRL RIGHT !wallpaper .change
in the Hotkeys.rc file and follow the readme file's directions to optimise. :P

Thank you sooo much wbaggins, you have helped me ALOT!

Don't forget that using the Display Properties in the Control Panel still works.

which you can access via "control.exe desk.cpl" if you have to.
