Don't dispair... Click on the link that takes you to here:

Look carefully at them... Watch out for the ones that have a red asterisk
next to them. Find one you want (or two or three) and import them. Extract
them. Put them in your themes folder. Then see if they're there in your drop
down menu from the Display Properties menu. It's worked in the past with
SOME of them. I'll upload a screenshot of my current configuration if you'd
like somewhere so that you can see what one looks like. It's just a matter
of importing them manually AND making sure to avoid the ones with the
installer with ads on them. There's surely some tutorials for this as well.
Browse around the site, I'm sure you'll find loads of info but again, be
aware that the ones marked with the asterisk (and that's not the only site
that you can download themes from I just don't know any others off the top
of my head) are full of ads.

mental exaltation." -- Sherlock Holmes
