I am having the same issue. I have downloaded correctly but cannot find a theme folder anywhere in Limewire. I tried adding one under programs/limewire but it didn't work either lol. Pls help? ty

For XP C:\Documents and Settings\your username\Application Data\LimeWire\themes.
The Application Data folder's hidden by default, so you'll have to show hidden files & folders first

For Vista C:\Users\your username\AppData\Roaming\LimeWire\themes

The App Data folder's hidden by default, so check out the thread below about how to show hidden files & folders & how to find the preferences folder in Vista (the preferences folder is named LimeWire & the themes folder should be within that).

I just followed these instructions to the letter and I can still see no themes folder. I can't find a LimeWire folder following your instructions either. Please advise.

Just go to your start menu, under "start search", simply type in appdata... within a second the folder will pop up click on it, go to roaming, then limwire, themes. Hope that helps!

I think you may need to restart LW before it shows up in the View menu.
