Charlie, lol... thanks for the very in depth reply =)
I'd rather get a "book" reply then sentance reply.

Unfortunatly I've hit an error after I add the plf
source and try to urpmi the RPM package:

unable to access rpm file
[kdemoreartwork-kwinacqua_mod-0.1-1plf.i586.rpm]
error registering local packages

What does this mean?  It looks like the PLF source is
added sucessfully but I can't seem to install the RPM
package.  Just for fun I did urpmi adfasdfko.rpm and
got the same error so it must not know the RPM package
exists? (it's treating like a bogus package?)

You'll need to do a couple of things first in order to
indulge your passion 
for "Eye Candy." <g>

Go here;

http://plf.zarb.org/~nanardon/

"fill in the information" for the Mandrake version 

<<heavy snip>>

To answer your original question; after you've
selected and updated the 
sources for packages by using the commands found on
the Easy urpmi page just 
type:

urpmi kdemoreartwork-kwinacqua_mod-0.1-1plf.i586.rpm
<enter>

and watch the progress. When you've done using the
terminal just type

exit <enter>

until it goes away.

The theme will appear in the KDE Control Centre ("K"
menu button, 
configuration, Control Centre. Or KDE, Look 'n' Feel,
Theme Manager) for your 
optical enjoyment. You may have to log out and log in
again, but that still 
beats a Windows reboot special doesn't it? Have fun!

Damn! Did I write another book? Sorry everyone.

Regards;
C.
