A recent staff post mentioned “Corporate” and “Fruit” themes for the EE CP.
But all I got with my install was Default, apparently. How can I try these additional themes?

The additional themes are available in the My Purchases area on ExpressionEngine.com. You’ll see a Free Downloads section which contains the CP themes.

Thanks Jeremy. Did you find them solarsail?

I did find them, thanks—Wow, I like these attractive themes.
Jeremy, thanks for the tip. I have added your Posh website to my RSS reader.
As a usability guy, I’m disappointed there was no readme file that explains what to do with the theme folders.
I’ve been around EE for long enough to figger out what to do, but this would seem to be a simple enough improvement you can add. I searched the userguide first and didn’t find guidance. Hopefully it is there somewhere.
As I watched the theme folders upload, I noticed that one of the files is titled Killer_robot.
I suppose some programmers have a sense of humor, or perhaps this file shuts down my website if I fail to renew my EE license.
EllisLab is the only group I’d allow to put a Killer Robot on my website.
