Looks good, though I'd do a couple things:
1) Change the taskbar to suit the theme 2) Kill the text at the top or the bottom... if neccessary, move it to a watermark, possibly off to the side or integrated a bit better. As it stands right now, it's a little jarring and doesn't 'mesh' with the rest of the background. 3) Might want to make a high-detail iconset, for those who run at/above 1280x1024.. the icons are little more than dots at 1600x1200.

about the task bar, the task bar you see there is not 1 i made, its the default one thats in winxp. if i make one it will probally involve using a res hacker/ dll,exe editor. and might create problems for other pc users, same as when i change the IE icon, it works on mine but not on all others.
and no i dont want to remove the text from the wallpaper, if u dont like it just delete it your self in ms paint. thats another reason the icons dont look as good, its because ive lost my phtoshop disc i got from a freind. and im dowloading it now, ive got 56k so it takes a while.
but anyways, you guys like the kharaa theme or not ?

Well, I think proper credits to the creators of those wallpapers would be nice. That's also the reason why I think you should resize the "theme by..." part. There are some artists out there who wouldn't like seeing their work manipulated without notice.
I don't want to sound mean and I appreciate the work you've put into this themes, but you should also realize that those who made the wallpaper also put work into them.
hmmmmmzzz... the readme sais, the theme was made by me, it doesnt say anything about me making the wallpaper. who made the wallpaper, do you know ? if you know who made them please post there website links so i can put it in the readme. ( wont be in the thanks too section though ) in the about section ill add in there where you can get the wallpapers, can ya gimmi a link to them please.
<b>Carbon14</b> is the creator of the Marine-Wallpaper. I'm not sure if he has a website, but here's a link to an old forum-thread where he posted his work: <a href='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?act=ST&f=7&t=5171&st=90' target='_blank'>Wallpaper-Thread</a>. <b>Ramses</b> is the creator of the Kharaa-Wallpaper. Since he is me, I know his website: <a href='http://www.joshbeeler.com/ramses' target='_blank'>Ramses' Artwork Archiv</a>
I downloaded the theme and I'm pretty sure I backed up everything before extracting it to C:, but now my comp is messed up. Whenever I restart the computer I have to ctrl-alt-del and then end explorer, because everything becomes frozen. Then when I try to restore the desktop my old wallpaper pops up and my computer freezes again (I am then forced to manually restart).
Kharra are the aliens... Oh, and I have a suggestion... I know those icons look cooler, but instead of an armoury for the recycle bin, maybe try the recycle symbol... I think that would look cooler. You know which one I mean? The one in the bottom right corner when you select most structures... I think that it is probably in the manual folder where you got all of the ones that you have.
My only suggestion would be to make a skulk the marine recycle bin <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

as for changing the recycle bin to the skulk, no. and changing the recycle bin to the recycle sign, i say no to that also, because i want this theme to be all kept with structure. i might make a symbol style one later.
k guys i fixed the readme. i have to know if you people will still download the updated version i upload or not, like i said before, iprimus is being a H()M(). the marine theme is almost at its final stage. but the kharaa theme is very hard to do, they got hardley any structures to use. anyone think that a symbol style kharaa theme is better ?

i cant change the icon size since windows does not allow this Therefore cant change the qulality of the icons, when i say im gonna make them better quality in the readme i mean i will actually take some time cutting them up and removing unwanted pixls..
about the task bar, the task bar you see there is not 1 i made, its the default one thats in winxp. if i make one it will probally involve using a res hacker/ dll,exe editor. and might create problems for other pc users, same as when i change the IE icon, it works on mine but not on all others.
and no i dont want to remove the text from the wallpaper, if u dont like it just delete it your self in ms paint.
thats another reason the icons dont look as good, its because ive lost my phtoshop disc i got from a freind. and im dowloading it now, ive got 56k so it takes a while.
