How to use predefined themes.
   

There are only two steps to select a predefined theme and set the look and feel you want:
    com.jtattoo.plaf.acryl.AcrylLookAndFeel.setTheme("Green", "INSERT YOUR LICENSE KEY HERE", "my company");
    UIManager.setLookAndFeel("com.jtattoo.plaf.acryl.AcrylLookAndFeel");
                                

All look and feel's within the JTattoo package do have a static method named setTheme. The first parameter is the name of the theme you want to select. The second parameter is the license key (you will get one if you purchase a license) and the last parameter is the string you want to show in the lower left corner of popup-menus. If you don't have a license key, this will work as well, with the restriction that you can't set the string in popup-menus.

For a complete list of the predefined themes see : Predefined themes

Here's a simple demo application to illustrate the setTheme method:
