I am happy to inform you all that you will get new themes for Orkut on every Saturday from us! For more details about this program, please visit http://orkutaddons.blogspot.com/2008/03/saturday-theme-day.html


Before you go and tryout any of the themes hosted on Orkut Addons, do go through this tutorial once so that the load of queries in my e-mail inbox can be reduced.

1. Getting Stylish

What you need to use our themes is just Mozilla Firefox and Stylish. You can download Mozilla firefox from the footer of this page and Stylish from here. Stylish is a Firefox Addon to Customize the look of the application and of websites. Click here to read the tutorial to install a firefox addon from grass-root level.

After you install stylish, you will see an icon at the bottom right corner of firefox like this .
That's all! Now you have Stylish installed on your FF and it's time to install the Orkut Themes.

2. Installing Orkut Themes

Our themes will generally be hosted on Googlepages, so in most of the cases we will give you the link as http://oa.addons.googlepages.com/name.css. Here "name" is the name of the theme that would vary every Saturday. When you will click this link, a piece of code will appear in you Firefox Browser just like here.
Now what you have to do is just COPY this piece of code on the clipboard and then follow the below instructions:

1. Right click on the stylish icon, located at the bottom right of FF.
2. Point to Write Style and then click on Blank Style.
3. In the window, that opens-up write the name of the theme and paste the code that you
copied earlier in the big box.
4. Click Save and you are done!!

Visit Orkut after all these steps and you'll see the result as shown in the posts of themes! Enjoy Orkutting.

3. Deleting/Uninstalling Themes

Since you will be getting new themes every Saturday, I guess you would need to uninstall the previous one, because there is a very high probability of you falling in love with the new theme! Follow these steps to uninstall or to delete an old theme.

1. Right click on the stylish icon, located at the bottom right of FF.
2. Choose Manage Styles. Here you will get the list of all installed styles on your machine.
3. Choose the style which you want to uninstall (by a single click).
4. Click on "Delete" which is located at the top of the Manage Style Window.

4. Presenting your Thoughts

I follow the policy of "You comment I follow". So, all your respective thoughts about each and every theme are welcomed. To make the things easier, please comment about the themes in their respective commenting section. This would make me to follow up them more easily.
