Hello , thank so much for your reply, here is the information Desktop: Xfce 4.12.3 (Gtk 2.24.28) Distro: Linux Mint 18.3 Sylvia
Kernel: 4.15.0-34-generic x86_64 (64 bit gcc: 5.4.0) , However I am sorry to say I don't know how to see which version of xfwn4 I have, I searched on google , but nothing clean came up, everything I found is related to xfce ( I am sorry , I am not a very advanced user) .

Sorry meant xfwm4, typo, anyway that's not important.
Dragging the archibve on to the appearence settings window DOESN'T install the wm stuff, so yo need to install manually, like so:
remove the OldBrownWood folder from ~/.themes
unpack the archive ( use manager or cli :tar -xvf /path/to/downloaded/archive )
drag the unpacked OldBrownWood folder to ~/.themes.
Some arcive guis surround the extracted folder in another folder, so you wnt the folder below that ie the one called OldBrownWood cotainig the index.theme file.
Let me know if this helps.

a lot of people ( myself included ) abandoned this site and it's sister sites some years back when they revamped them and tried to make them more commercial, it's now quite awkward to update content/links etc.
But thx for the kind words.
