Packaging Tutorial
Aka "How To Get Your MoodTheme To The Audience"
Hello, welcome, and I thought I'd start with something useful. I'm sure there are other methods, and I invite you to post your own, but this is what works for me...
A) Pack all the icons into one zip file.
B) Create a README.txt document. Make sure it contains explicit cut-and-paste written-for-dummies instructions on how to upload and install your icon set. For example's sake, here's mine:
C) Place this text file into the zip file with the icons.
D) Upload it or offer it by mail, your choice.
The trickiest part is writing a good how-to, honestly -- once you have that perfected to your liking, it's cake, you can re-use it over and over again with minor tweaks. I do. ;)
