CTF Theme Readme:
June 2, 2000

I couldn't find a CTF Theme, so I made some. I'm only distributing this in case there's anyone else out there who wants their computer to look like this.

Installation
Run the file CTFTheme.exe and extract to your Themes directory. You can then choose any of the three themes from your Desktop Themes Control Panel.

FYI: The EXE file is only a self-extracting archive. No system files or registry editing/reading will take place.

Uninstallation:
Delete the following files from your Themes Directory:

- CTF Blue.Theme
- CTF Red.Theme
- CTF.Theme

Delete the CTF folder from your Themes directory.

The self-extractor contains 3 Themes:
CTF - a CTF Theme
CTF Red - a Red Team Theme
CTF Blue - a Blue Team Theme

Games/Mods/Add-ons/Maps used to create this theme:

> Quake1
> Threewave CTF
> CTF Bot+
> ctf3m1

Things this theme will need to be a more complete theme

- Screensaver (I didn't want to settle for a "Slideshow" screensaver)
- Logo Screens (I don't use them)
- Web-Page view graphics (I don't view folders as web pages)

Additional Credits:

- Flag of Canada ANI Cursor. Author: Jamie Innes (original is included in this package)
- Joe "Slag" Lewis for showing up for a final flag capture as I grabbed a screenshot (UT Skaarj Model)

Frequently Asked Questions that no one has ever asked me:

Q: Why are the background images right-heavy?
  A: Because all of the desktop icons on my computer are on the left
Q: Why are the background images only available in 1024 x768?
  A: Because that's the resolution of my computer
Q: Rumor has it that you're a website developer, do you design web pages to be best viewed in 1024 x 768?
  A: No, that's just silly and alienating. Windows Plus! will resize the image to fit properly on your screen if you are using a lower resolution. Websites don't automatically do that.
Q: Why didn't you use bright bombastic colors for the window items?
  A: Because I didn't want my computer to hurt my eyes
Q: Why is there no screensaver?
  A: I didn't want to settle for a "Slideshow" screensaver. If anyone wants to make a CTF Screensaver that can be easily distributed with this package, that would be great.
Q: Why are there no "My Documents" Icons?
  A: There are, but on my computer I'm using the default Windows 98 Theme control panel and it doesn't save info for My Documents Icons :-(
Q: Why are there no graphics for viewing folders as web pages
  A: Because I don't view folders as web pages on my computer, I view web pages as web pages
Q: Why aren't there any shots of Quake II CTF?
  A: I really have no idea.
