WinDoZe XP Theme Pack for Quadra
================================
Created by Rich „Weeds„ Nagel

Overview
--------
This archive contains a new theme pack for version 1.1.8 (or newer) of Ludus
Design's EXCELLENT "Quadra" Tetris-styled tetromino game. Find out more about
this great freeware Tetris game at http://quadra.googlecode.com or
http://code.google.com/p/quadra on the Internet!

The theme pack consists of ten new background images created using a wallpaper
image from from Microsoft's "Windows XP" operating system for the PC. The
original wallpaper image was heavily edited using Paint Shop Pro's "Clone
Brush" tool to remove the "Microsoft Windows XP" logo <G>, and then the
"Colorize" tool was used to change the overall color of them to create nine
additional background images.

In addition, all of the tetrominoes for the game have been edited to slightly
"softer" colors, with the same set of tetrominoes used throughout all ten
levels. Two types of tetromino color schemes are included, the original Quadra
tetromino color scheme, as well as tetrominoes that have been changed to Tetris
"Guideline" colors.

Also included are new replacement sound effects for Quadra (created from sound
effects from one of Windows XP's sound schemes), and have all been converted to
stereo for a fuller and richer sound while playing the game.

Lastly, the theme pack also includes a new mouse cursor, based on one of
Microsoft Windows's mouse cursor images.
