Thanks very much, Tom.  That's a lot of themes to choose from! I'm
concerned though most with functionality.  Specifically, I'm after (1)
scroll buttons on the windows and, (2) I'd like to have much more of a
color difference of the window having the focus from the other windows. 
I've opened a separate thread about scroll buttons (if that email is
allowed to come through onto this list).
