AFP Photos Windows 7 RSS Desktop Wallpaper Themes 

Following on from Dave's AFP special photos reading lists I have created individual .theme files for Windows 7 RSS Desktop Themes and as Dave creates new AFP Photo Reading Lists I will add them here.

AFP photos -- "Basketball" - Windows 7 'Basketball' Theme

AFP photos -- "Fashion" -Windows 7 'Fashion' Theme

AFP photos -- "Football (Soccer)" -Windows 7 'Football (Soccer) Theme

AFP photos -- "Italy" -Windows 7 'Italy' Theme

AFP photos -- "Obama" -Windows 7 'Obama' Theme

AFP photos -- "Television" -Windows 7 'Television' Theme

AFP photos -- "Tennis" -Windows 7 'Tennis' Theme

AFP photos -- "Top Shots" - Windows 7 'Top Shots' Theme

AFP Windows 7 Theme Collection (All of the above in a single ZIP file)

When you download and open .theme file you will be presented with a popup window ‘Subscribe to RSS Feed’ and you should click ‘Download Attachments’ so that each photo will be stored locally to be used as the wallpaper.

Each .theme file is the same, just with a different DisplayName and RSS feed source for the wallpaper.

Here is the base source code for each .theme file based on the Windows 7 Themes spec at MSDN as is a standard text file with a .theme file extension rather than .txt
