How to apply themes to Mobile Shell 3? - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

Sorry if this is ends up being spam but is there an easy turorial for applying themse to Mobile Shell 3?
For example I downloded [WVGA] Theme Vynil by Apothehouse. It is not a cab file extention, so how do I apply it to my mobile shell?
Also how do I replace the default analog clock with one from a clock pack?

You have 2 possibilities:
1) download the exe file and execute it from your desktop.
2) download the cab file, copy it in your pocket pc, go to the directory in your pocket where you copied the cab file, click on it to install.
You don't have to open or dezip the files!
Is the theme file.
they all in a zip file and they told me unzip and put into director.....
@ocarlo. As i think you know no many about mobile shell or themes or windows mobile, zip, dat or whatever. SO please:
1. First search the Forum
2. Read in one of the many mobileshell threads here, it ist explained how to install different themes
3. read or post in first Noob-thread on this side
4. and then maybe post in one of the hundreds of mobile shell threads
- but dont open own threads with such questions, if you even cant explain what your problem is.

Do you copy all the files in the icons folder over aswell?

You just simple copy the files to the program files/mobile shell directory and overwrite the originals. Even if you mess something up you can restore it by simply reinstalling mobile shell.
