Hi,
I just purchased a theme and I downloaded, saved and tried opening via File> Import Theme Package and it keeps telling me "invalid .XML". Can anyone help me with this?

Thanks!

You need to have Visual Site Designer 7.0 Build 24 to install these theme packages.

What problem are you having John?
You might want to try this.
1. Right-click the shortcut icon, and click Properties.
2. Click the Compatibility tab.
3. Here, put a check mark by Run This Program as an Administrator.
4. Next, put a check mark next to Run This Program in Compatibility Mode For: and ensure Windows XP Pro Service Pack 2 is selected.
5. Click OK.
I can't hear what I'm looking at.

If your installing a theme just DBL click the theme from windows explore and it should install. Don't try to install it from VSD.:)

You must have BUILD 24 or you will get an error when you try to install the theme.
