A) Download & Applying the theme.

The main step to set the theme as shown in pic is to Decrese the no of icons on the desktop. If the number of icons is more than the space on the shelves it will not be attractive anymore.

1. Download the Theme & Icon here.
2. After downloading the theme, now goto the download folder & extract the theme.
3. After extracting the theme now double click on the file named "Xedlgubaid" to apply it. New theme will apply but the icons will not be arranged as shown in the picture. We need to do it manually. 

B) Rearranging the icons & changing the icon of folders.

1. As we know we have to set the icons on irregular direction, we need to clear some default settings.
2. Goto desktop screen, now right click on it & untick the options as shown in fig.
Untick Auto arrange icons

3. We have to Remove these two options i.e "Auto arrange icons" & "Align icons to grid"

C) Renaming the icons & setting a "blank name".

1. We know all our icons will have some name, but it will affect our user interface. We need to remove their name to make our theme best & awesome.
2. We cant set a blank name by putting a space in the name field. To keep the name blank we will use a trick called "Alt 0160".
3. Right click on any icon, click on rename, delete its name. Now keeping the "Alt key" pressed & press 0160 from the Numpad, without leaving the "Alt Key". Then press enter.
4. If you want to rename the second icon, You have to do "Alt 0160" Method two times i.e Keep Pressing the "Alt key" , Now type 0160 . Leave Alt key, now press again "Alt key" & type "0160". Now press Enter key to set the name to blank.
5. As the icon increases the "Alt 0160" method increase, e.g for the third icon you will need to do the "Alt key" method 3 times. & so on.
