Themes

[Jan Hyde]

I keep reading that there should be a couple of built in
themes in the directory

...\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.x.xxxxx\ASP.NETClie ntFiles\Themes

I've yet to see any machine with this 'Themes' directory.

Anyone know why?

To answer my own question, it looks like this was dropped
before the final release leaving a whole host of books
giving incorrect info.

The correct directory for Themes is an App_Themes
subdirectory of your application's home directory.

Check out this reference :

For general information and more examples, see :

Yes you are correct. The Theme I kept seeing in the books is the
SmokeAndGlass Theme. I wonder why this was dropped.

Yea I know, I don't have any artistic talent in me what so
ever, I just wanted to play around with some existing
themes.

I already have a theme set up but whatever colours I put
together always look horrendous ;-)

heh, heh...

I'm a "code person", too, with no graphic design talent whatsoever.

The samples at : http://www.dotnettreats.com/tools/Default.aspx and http://www.dotnettreats.com/SampleThemes/Default.aspx
should help...
