What is a theme:

A Ventrilo theme is mechanism to change the look and feel of the Ventrilo client program.

Themes are downloaded as a single file with the extension of VTP (Ventrilo Theme Pack). The VTP contains all of the configuration and graphic files that make a Ventrilo Theme.

2. Right-click in the main window.

3. Click 'View'

4. Click 'Working Directory'

5. This will open the file browsing window and will show the contents of your current configuration. Double-click the folder called "Themes" and copy the VTP file into it.

One last step: Right-click in the main window again and select the "Theme" option. A list of all themes that have been downloaded will be displayed. Select the theme and the window will automatically restart.

Also of note, at the top of the 'Themes' selection popup menu is an option that opens the browser directly to this web page making it easier to find new and updated themes.
