Hi guyz, i have downloaded a theme which requires TITANIUM icon set. I am pretty new to linux so you can consider me first time user. I read a couple of posts around which shows how to install an icon set. But this set is in some .7z or some other format.

Heres what is the procedure to install it:
Install:
1.) Open a terminal and go to the directory where you have downloaded the file. i.e. cd Desktop/Downloads.
2.) Install p7zip and issue 7z x Titanium_Icon_Theme_PRE1_by_code933k.7z; mv Titanium $HOME/.icons
3.) Enjoy.


So I am not sure what exactly am i supposed to do in the terminal.
Can someone please try to make it little easier for me?

Thanks.

Forget the terminal.

1. Install the p7zip (apt:p7zip) required to open 7z files.
2. Open the download file (if you are using standard Ubuntu, it will open with FileRoller).
3. Extract it in the /home/yourusername/.icons folder (this folder is hidden, but you can display it pressing Ctrl+H)
4. ????
5. PROFIT
