Mood themes are posted in reverse chronological order. Be sure to scroll all the way down to see the full selection of themes. All mood themes have a full set of unique images, so the images you see are only a sample of the much greater whole.
Not sure how to install a mood theme? I've written out a set of instructions at the bottom of the page. I don't have the time to answer questions if you run into trouble, so please check the LJ documentation and try to find your problem there. It's all there, trust me. Many people have installed these themes without trouble; it's quite possible if you take the time to find the answers.

1. Download the theme of your choice and expand it. You'll see a folder with 132 images and a file called mood.txt.
2. Upload all images to a directory on a server that lets you access pictures remotely. (Just about any paid host, that is; Geocities and other free sites usually have this blocked.) Note the location of your images; it'll look something like http://www.yourserver.com/images/mood/.
3. While logged in to your account, go to the Livejournal Admin Console and enter moodtheme_create name des. Name will be what you want to title this mood theme, and would be like "American Idol," while Des is the description, and would be something like "Bringing hope to famewhores everywhere." So, to get that particular combination, you would enter the following into the admin console:
moodtheme_create "American Idol" "Bringing hope to famewhores everywhere"
4. Open mood.txt. Search for "12345" and replace it with the unique mood theme ID you just got through the LJ console. Search for "http://www.yourserver.com/" and replace it with the path to your icons. Remember to include the final slash.
5. Copy the altered contents of mood.txt and paste it into the admin console. Enter it.
6. Your custom mood theme is now available for selection. Go to the Modify Journal page (while logged in) and go to the drop-down menu next to "choose mood icon set." Choose the custom set you just made; it'll be at the bottom of the list. At the bottom of the page, choose "save changes."
