I created my own Oddworld theme with slideshow background. The sounds are default and screen saver is nothing unfortunately.

Do you think there's a better color that goes with Oddworld?

Green.

I had retail AO, that came with a real Oddworld theme. I still use Abe's snarl for error messages. I don't notice it any more, but it makes my siblings laugh.

I think I have a real Oddworld theme, but it's incompatible with Windows 7.

I'm sure transferring the sounds and cursors across, then setting the colours appropriately is quite easy. However anyone with a bit of skill could make something much better if they wanted, I'm sure. It seems a bit inferior compared to today's standards.

They should make an official theme compatible with Windows 7.

There's a difference between "I'd like them to" and "They should".

I'd rather they worked on more important things TBH.

Backgrounds and sounds are available - If you're clever there are also ways of acquiring sounds directly from the games too. Why not make one yourself?

They could probably throw one together in a matter of hours. A Win7 theme is pretty much desktop wallpapers, an Aero color scheme and some system sounds. Since they have all the work produced by OWI available to them, the hardest part would probably be getting the right files all together.

Exactly. Given that I'm currently suffering from piles, attracting your 'attention' probably wouldn't be a good idea.

Because I'm awesome, that's why.

Also because old MSPaint doesn't have anti-aliasing, and the Beethoven is "Fur Elise" for my accordion.

Pulp fiction anyone? Yeah I know I change my wallpaper whenever I get the chance to, but this one must be my favourite. Every time I try to change it I'm like NO SHERIDAN, this is just too awesome.
