Sorry..Duplicate..lol
To apply the theme, click on the color picker and choose the new icon. The overwrite instructions is just for that aim version unless you manually changed the version number with the new Aim 6.8 that was just released.
When i go to the color picker it just shows the normal ones..i followed the overwrite instructions thoroughly…

Open this file in notepad:
C:\program files\aim6\services\imApp\
ver6_5_12_1\content\bl\blgadgets.box
In notepad, Click on Edit, then Click on Find.
Type the word “leopard”
Does it exist in that file?
Nope…that’s weird.
Is it supposed to exist?
Yep, if it doesn’t exist it means you did not overwrite that file from the zip file, and possibly the other two files that you were supposed to overwrite.
When i try to overwrite the files it says access is denied and it cannot create the folder.
This is what it said with themes.box: !
C:\Users\Tege\Desktop\leopardosx6-2.5.12.1.zip: Cannot create leopardosx6.5.12.1\themes.box
! Access is denied.

What you can do is unzip the file to desktop then dragging that file over to the appropriate location on the C:\ drive.
