Hi!
Is there a way to edit an existing ahape shifter theme ?

I like the Milk theme but I id like to change some of the accents (like the scoll bars and some buttons) to orange to match my new desktop image (Here) But making a completlty new theme is a bit overkill...

So can it be done, or would I be better of... finding some alternative solution ?

Go to unsanity.org and get GUIkitty. Drag the milk guikit into guikitty and it will decompile it into an editable form. Edit the theme with Themepark. Drag it back into guikitty and it will recomplie it into a guikit......

you could also just open up a new theme in ThemePark and hit "Merged With Installed Elements" when Milk is the installed Theme

Check the ThemePark help file for the section titled something like "Modifying an Existing Theme".
