[SOLVED] How do you delete old openbox themes?

Strangely I've had a lot of trouble finding this on my system or on the net.

I've been testing out a bunch of openbox themes, so I've compiled a few .obt packages and installed them, but even when I delete the original .obt (say I made it in my home directory with obconf), the theme remains in obconf for me to change to. Some of these themes are really ugly; they looked great on box-look.org, but on my system I don't like them. How do I delete these themes? I've been searching for a way to do this as well as where the openbox themes are stored for obconf to use, but Google has given me *gasp* nothing.

How do I delete openbox themes?

Remove the "openbox-3" directory from "~/.themes/<theme name>".

Actually, the install process creates the ~/.themes/<theme name> dir, so you should delete that and all it's contents.

tomk: I'm just saying to remove the openbox-3 directory since it's possible to have a gtk theme, for example, in the same directory.

Thank you so much! It worked! I kept looking in /usr/share/themes.
