have a quick question for yuo about the XP themes and logonui...they are two totally different things...one is for the themes as in back ground themes and the other is for loging into windows like in the administrators area...when you log into windows....

this isn't really the question...the question i have is when you go to install the logonui part...do the files actually go in the same place that the themes would go ? because i have read that when you unzip the themes they should go into the windows/resources/themes folder
also though when i go to unzip the files for the actual themes they seem to go into the same directory....just wondering if you know if i am doing anything wrong or is this the actual directory that both the xp themes and the logonui should both go into


i know this seems like a retorical statement but was just wondering it is wrong

thanks for any information you can shed on this situation

You don't have to put them in the same directory.

With the LogonUi files you should put them in different directories, because you don't want it to replace your original logonui.exe file, just in case. I created a different directory so that I can go back and forth with different logonui designs.
