The color scheme config file also resides in this location: ~/.trinity/share/apps/tdedisplay/color-schemes/HOW_YOU_NAMED_IT.kcsrc So now I am sending two versions of my most recent color scheme config, in .kcsrc (which is KDE3) and .kksrc (TDE) config files; they ought to be almost the same, except that the TDE version has been subtly tweaked and retweaked. Otherwise only the extension is changed. If you want to change the color of the lower panel to match, as well, then you need to use something like my source for background, which is an image file of a Zen ink drawing, with lots of space and few details. I'm glad to share that, too, though I have lost the source. (See attachments for my color scheme config files.) Regarding the whole theme, I'll look into it. I've never created a theme before, other than how all the various config files in my system make it look; but I would like to be able to use it myself in the future on other machines, without having to go through so many steps. A tar.gz file, you say? I'll study on how to create a theme. Bill
