Yeah, my screenshot was put up on Photobucket, but you can use lots of different hosts - Imgur is another popular one.
 
My theme was just hosted in my Dropbox but to make it easier to share the link, I created a short link using http://bit.ly  (you paste in your sharable Dropbox link and it spits out a short bit.ly link for you to share around).
 
Easy.

A screenshot would be nice...




And therein lies the rub: I have no host to upload this to (unless there's way to do this via Dropbox). I'd like to set up Dropbox to let people download my Mercury/Tungsten hybrid as well. I think it looks pretty nice.
 
Ideas and/or help?




You can use hightail.com for free, but with the free option the files are only up there for a week.

I like postimg.org for image hosting.  Free and non-intrusive.
 
For file hosting I like box.com.  Also free and non-intrusive.  I also use box for collabs.  You can set up shared folders for people to upload/download to.  It's pretty slick.

The free account at Dropbox works fine too...

I believe all you need do is

Make a public folder and post the link to the folder... Or a link to the file itself... There is a command at Dropbox for share... This will open a dialog exposing a share link... That's what to post here...

I haven't done any sharing lately, but I think this is all there is to it...

I would say it's simple, but daunting. IOW the actual ways to change the colors is easy, but actually deciding which elements to change, how they change, and how deep you want to go, gets you into the weeds pretty fast.
 
Some things are easy to change, like background colors. Others require working with an image editor. Creating a new theme from scratch is not for the faint of heart, but making a few tweaks isn't hard if you know how to use an image editing program.


Gimp?

Here is another alloy of tungsten and mercury.

Tuncury can be found in the themes area here
I also sent a link to the theme to user Elffin the current maintainer of the SONAR Resources and Utilities thread

Can someone check this and let me know if it works?
