A home-made theme ready to use in Windows 8 Themes


When you make your own Theme, and give its folder a name, there's always another folder you must have inside the named one, and it is always called DesktopBackground, because your Themes program always looks for it as the one to actually use for the working folder while changing your theme images like in a slideshow. The DesktopBackground one is the one that makes it all go, and your Windows looks for that exact folder name to start the theme running. That's why every theme folder has one inside named DesktopBackground. And that's the big secret to successfully making your own themes. Each different theme needs a  different name, but its pictures always go into a folder inside called DesktopBackground.
