Has anyone figured out how to work with a .Preference file or make a completely new one? The amount of themes in increasing more and more, and I think that there ought to be a simple Control Panel (.Preference file) where you simply press "Add" and you can add a file to a pop-up menu which can later be accessed. These files would be theme files. This way, you can switch themes on the fly without needing to relaunch the finder.

The creator of Unlined Charcoal (http://www2.fwi.com/~thefreys/Xhacked/unlinedcharcoal.html) was able to change one of the selections but he can't change the name because if you change it to more than the original name then it won't work. So I was wondering, can anyone shed some light on this? Is it possible to do this?
