Unlike some other desktop environments, Xfce does not currently have a separate application to help you automatically install new desktop themes. Instead, to use a new desktop theme, you need to store new themes in a special folder inside of your home folder. The following instructions will show you how to install and use a new desktop theme in Xubuntu.
