The WinPaletter Store has been redesigned with a cleaner interface, improved navigation, and seamless integration with the built-in GitHub workflow.

You can now upload and publish themes directly using the GitHub Manager, eliminating the previous complex manual process.

From the main window, click the Store button:

When opening the Store for the first time, a short introduction will guide you through the initial configuration.
During this process, you can choose how WinPaletter retrieves themes.

There are three available modes:

Themes are loaded from repository URLs configured in Settings.
This mode allows you to browse and download themes directly from online sources.

Themes are loaded only from a local folder on your device.
This is useful if you prefer working without an internet connection or managing a private collection.

Hybrid Mode combines both online and offline sources.
You can browse and apply themes from the web while keeping your local themes accessible, allowing you to preview and manage everything in one place.

Once themes finish loading from the internet, they appear in the main list:

You can search by:

• Theme name
• Author
• Tags
• Description

Type your search query here and click the search button:

To refine results (such as filtering by OS support or other criteria), click the filter button:

Each theme appears as a card in the store.

Click any card to open its detailed page:

Each card displays:

1. Theme Name
2. Author
3. Two representative colors
   These provide a quick visual impression of the theme’s style.
4. Supported Operating Systems
5. Background pattern (decorative preview)
6. Theme version

• Right-click any theme card to generate a preview thumbnail for that theme.

This layout helps you quickly compare themes before opening them.

If the theme includes a license or credits, this window will appear:

You can:

• Read the license terms
• Accept or reject the license

The theme will not proceed unless the license is accepted.

Before applying a theme, WinPaletter shows a summary of all edited aspects to prevent accidental changes:

This helps you verify exactly what will be modified.

If the theme includes a Resources Pack, a download window will appear:

It may contain:

• Wallpapers
• Sounds
• Screensavers
• Other media assets

These files are usually stored on the author’s device and are not included directly in the theme file.

After the download completes:

• The theme will be applied automatically.
