<title>Get new themes from the internet</title>
+<p>Your system comes with many optional themes; however, you may also download more from many sources online. To do this:</p>
+
+<steps>
+ <item>
+ <p>Visit a website that lists downloadable desktop elements such as themes, wallpapers, and icons for your desktop. One excellent source is <link href="http://www.gnome-look.org">www.gnome-look.org</link>. </p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>Download the theme you have selected and save it on your computer. It may come in a .zip file or a tar.gz file. If it comes in a zip file, extract the contents until you come to a tar.gz file. If you download a tar.gz file, leave it as is.</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>To install the theme, go to <guiseq><gui>System</gui><gui>Preferences</gui><gui>Appearance</gui></guiseq>. Under the <gui>Theme</gui> tab, click on the <gui>Install</gui> button.</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>Navigate to the location of the downloaded theme.</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>Select the downloaded theme and click <gui>Open</gui>. This installs the theme. You can also drag and drop the .tar.gz theme file into the <gui>Appearances</gui> window to install it.</p>
+ </item>
+</steps>
+
+<p>To use the theme, simply select it and the changes will be reflected on your desktop automatically.</p>
