i. using themes

To install a theme, take the theme package and untar it in ~/.gtkmonop/themes.

To install a theme system-wide, untar the theme package in $(PREFIX)/share/gtkmonop/themes, with $(PREFIX) being the directory that gtkmonop was configured to install into at compile-time (/usr/local by default, /usr if you used a deb or an rpm.)

Once the theme is installed, it should show up in gtkmonop's preferences dialog.

ii. creating themes

Creating a gtkmonop theme is fairly straightforward. Create the following images and put them in a directory:

The function of the image is as follows:

gtkmonop-airport-*.png : airport graphics, rotated gtkmonop-cchest-*.png : community chest square graphics, rotated gtkmonop-chance-*.png : chance square graphics, rotated gtkmonop-corners.png : blank squares to display in the corners

gtkmonop-deed*.png      : estate title deed cards, different for each
                          estate
gtkmonop-flag*.png      : used to display estate ownership, different for
                          each player
gtkmonop-mflag*.png     : used to display ownership while estate is mortgaged,
                          different for each player
gtkmonop-house*.png     : each house can have a different graphic

gtkmonop-railroad-*.png : railroad graphics, rotated gtkmonop-spaces-*.png : all of the different colored spaces, rotated

                          ... Look at the default theme's files ;-)
