Themes/skins

Hi

Is it possible to create applications with Java that support user skins /
themes, (like eg. Winamp does, except it's not a Java app).

Thanks

Try a Google search on "skin look feel". Also, take a look at the Synth
look-and-feel class in Java 5.

Hi Guys, I'm looking for some advice / guidelines on using Themes with an application I am working on. The application needs to allow people to customize the appearance utilizing what I would consider to be a Themeing and Skinning mechanism.

We're replacing a CLASSIC ASP application. In this application, we presented a dialogue box that allowed end users to specify exactly how they wanted their screen to look. So, they could set the font size, font colour, border widths/style/colour etc, etc. This information was then held in a database. When the ASP page was loaded, it used an INCLUDE function to include a file "application.css.asp". This was effectively an ASP page...

Hi. I am having trouble grasping the concept of applying a consistent theme to an ASP.net website. I didn't used to like ASP because it was too hard to apply a theme from a common theme folder like I could do easily in PHP, but now I see that it has some nicer theming features and master files. So I want to use web.config to switch which theme I'm using, and I want to be able to have several themes. My understanding of themes is that I...

According to the MSDN docs, we cannot programatically create our own themes or skins: "Page and control developers do not use the ControlSkinDelegate, ControlSkin, or PageTheme classes directly. These classes are used by the ASP.NET parser and runtime ... " (from http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.web.ui.pagetheme.aspx).

With CSS being so prevalent, how common is the use of the asp.net Skins and Themes? I'm examining my methodology for setting up sites for some folks, and the idea of having using Themes seems compelling. However, I'm seeing alot of emphasis on using CSS markup. Are folks still actively using themes? Thanks for any input. Tim
