Changing Portal Display

Question

I am trying to customize the standard portal desktop. I need to make some changes in the portal masthead like changing the logo, branding image etc. As we don't have NWDS installed I am trying to do it through Theme Editor.
I followed the below process:
1. Created new Portal theme, In that uploaded a new logo and branding image and saved it.
2. Created a new desktop image and added the theme and a copy of the default frame work page to it.
3. Created a display rule and assigned the desktop to it.
After following the above process , I am still seeing the standard portal theme.Do I have to do anything else besides the above process?Can someone help me with this.
Thanks.

Hi p576277,
The process steps you have followed are correct.
As Praveen said the simple mistake everyone does(even I did the first time ) was adding the IF statement after the defaultDesktop IF Statement.
IF User = *  should be given after the custom IF statement for your desktop.
The problem is .. If the Statement USER=* appears then It wont process anyother IF statements . Hence All Custom IF statements should appear before the default if Statement. Click the IF statement and use the MOVE UP and MOVE DOWN buttons for moving the IF Statments.
Atlast..your expression should appear like:
IF User = <youruser>
      Then Portal Desktop = CustomDesktop
IF User = *
      Then Portal Desktop = DefaultDesktop
