Looks GREAT! But does it require the Plus package to work, or will it work with vanilla Win98?

My help files tell me that vanilla Windows 98 includes all of the Plus desktop stuff. I was able to install this package by unzipping it to the C:\ directory.

War - that could be because the wallpaper is a .jpg file - some versions of Plus! curl up and die at the thought of handling one of these - if so the answer is easy - open the wallpaper file in your favourite graphics package and save it in .bmp format - all Plus! packages will now purr with delight - alternatively there are a number of freeware Plus! clones that can be stolen from any of the themes sites such as freethemes.com
Hope this helps

1. Win95 with Plus! does themes. If your copy crashes and you have Office 97, a fix is hidden among the miscellaneous stuff they stuck in some directory on the Office CD (I think it's called Goodies).

2. Win98 has native support.
