Installing Polymer Theme... ???

Hi everybody.

I realize that my question is, perhaps, quite stupid, but I'm new to Linux and I need some help. I searched the net a lot for my problem, but I did not find the answer.

I downloaded from kde-look the Polymer theme in .rpm format for my distribution (Suse 9.3), I installed it as root but now I don't now how to use the theme itself...
I had a look to the filed installed on my system, I tried to use the Theme Manager in the Control Center with 'Install New Theme...' and then going to /opt/kde3/share/apps/kstyle/themes/polymer.themerc, but it doesn't see this file.

What do I have to do?

Thank you!!!
Skwattrinated ma felice!

I *think* based on the polymer article on kde-look (http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=27968) that polymer is a window decoration and a style, not a theme. This means that to use it you must select it in the Control Center from Appearance & Themes -> Style and Appearance & Themes -> Window Decorations.

Good Luck.

You where right... that is not a real theme but a window style.
