Why do some themes install with the wallpaper that is shown and others don't? In other words...Why does the wallpaper change when I change themes only with certain themes? Sometimes I have to manually change the wallpaper.

Not all theme zips include a wallpaper. And some themers don't set it in theme.ini.

man that's gay. part of the reason i dl a theme is b/c of the wallpaper.

NOTE TO ALL THEME DESIGNERS: BY INCLUDING THE WALLPAPER SHOWN IN YOUR SCREENSHOT, YOU WILL
1) MOST LIKLY GET BETTER REVIEWS
2) AND NOT HAVE ME HUNT YOU DOWN AND KILL YOU AFTER TAKING THE WALLPAPER OFF YOUR COMPUTER.


so ya...

anyway it is possible to drop a line to the theme-maker... if he published e-mail in the profile, of course :)

Yeah, and by including the wallpaper you'll also cause more bandwidth usage. That's the main reason wallpapers should not be included. However, a link to the wallpaper in the readme would be nice.
