Themes transform a Web site by applying a coordinated set of text and link 
colors, fonts, background graphics, table borders, link bar buttons, horizontal 
lines, and bullets to the site's pages. Each theme generates a different look and 
feel: For example, the Sumi Painting theme projects peace and serenity, and the 
Expedition theme creates an earthy, safari look. Themes won't do magic, but they 
can give you quick, easy access to home page decoration. 

You can apply a theme to your entire Web site or to selected pages. To do so, 
follow these steps: 

  1. Open the Web site. 
     To keep your site's look and feel consistent, apply the theme to the whole
     site in one go. To do so, in the Folder List, click the site's top-level
     folder (the first folder in the Folder List). 

  2. Choose Format, Theme. 
     The Theme task pane appears. Here, you get a glimpse of the themes included
     with FrontPage. 

  3. In the Select a Theme area of the task pane, scroll down to peruse your
     choices, and then click the icon corresponding to a theme you like. 

  4. Depending on the options you want to use, near the bottom of the task pane,
     select one or more of the Vivid Colors, Active Graphics, and Background
     Picture check boxes. Then click the theme's icon again to apply the changes
     to your site. These check boxes give you a little control (but not much)
     over the appearance of theme elements: 

      - Vivid Colors: Select this option if you want to use a slightly brighter
        set of text, links, and graphic colors. 

      - Active Graphics: Active graphics allows FrontPage to create link bar
        buttons that change color or shape when clicked. Some themes also
        contain different page banners and bullets graphics. 

      - Background Picture: This option enables you to turn on or off the theme's
        background graphic. 

If you don't like what you see, remove the theme by clicking the No Theme icon in 
the task pane's Select a Theme area.
