Hmm... If you followed the steps above correctly you should now have the
directory ~/.themes/default-svn/xfwm4 filled with various images in png,
svg and xpm format. Does your user have the required permissions to view
these files and directories? Or maybe there's a typo in my how-to that I
just can't spot right now? I just tested this again and it worked fine.
The theme was listed in the Window Manager Settings dialog after a relogin.

No rebooting is necessary when you install themes. Only xfce-mcs-manager
should need to be restarted, and that happens when you log out and back in.
