Where did you get this Deer theme from? It's probably a theme file for the
GUI of an older version of Windows.

Good Morning Mary,

I down loaded a picture I took of the deer with my digital camera.
If I go to the control panel and click theme or right click on the desktop
and click personalization.
Why do I get that goofy mesage?
 
Good Morning Synapse,

I took the deer picture with my digital camera and downloaded it..
 
You can't use a single picture as a "theme". If you want it as your desktop
background/wallpaper, right-click the picture and select it as your
wallpaper.
 
Good Evening Richard,

Thank you for your help and knowledge.
Now I understand.

:

Where are you "clicking on the theme"? You can't use those old xp
theme
files
in vista. You have to use Personalization in Control Panel to select a
vista
theme. You can select a jpg picture from that old theme as a Desktop
background if that's what you want. Look up Theme in vista help.
