In order to install the theme perform the following actions:
- first of all - backup your ~/.icewm folder:
cd && cp -rp .icewm .icewm-backup

We need the font'verdana'. You can download the fonts from
http://corefonts.sf.net
- extract the archive SilverXP-1.2.17-double-1.tar.bz2 - it
will create the icewm/ directory
cd && tar jxvf SilverXP-1.2.17-double-1.tar.bz2
- hide the directory (do not forget to back up Your ~/.icewm
before doing it):
cd && mv icewm/ .icewm/
- move Your customized files "keys, winoptions, toolbar, menu"
to the ~/.icewm directory:
cd ~/.icewm-backup/ && cp keys winoptions toolbar menu ~/.icewm

of shaped windows and gradients):
