Craig,
What is that "Colorize the Image" dialog?
 




That's MY question - How about a walk-thru Craig?  Please?




That'll be from the external image editor program, gimp in this case by the looks of it.
 




Yes, I found it.  GIMP and Theme Editor seem to be working well together here.

Any screen shots of what the theme editor looks like anywhere? Am really curious, but busy for a few days and can';t install it yet.



Here's a start...
 





Theme Editor also has themes.  Here's the dark one

Ah.. there we go, thanks everyone.   I've never used GIMP before which is why it didn't look familiar.

Interesting...
 
It is setup a little like Panup's editor...?
 
I'm a little lost finding objects, but I'm sure I'll get a handle on it as I go... I've only tinkered with skin editing a little in the past and honestly, I'm quite comfortable with Tungsten (Though I miss the more obvious track colorings of Mercury)...
 
I saw someone's post that had an edited image in which the track area (background?) was outlined in the color that was assigned to the track... I'd Love to do that, but I'm not sure if it can be done as the colors are user assigned...?
 
I'll continue to browse around in it and see what I come up with...
 
Nice to have it a part of Sonar. I had done some tinkering using Panup's program, but constantly needing to revert to authorized/factory versions of Sonar (it edited the Sonar executable directly I believe) I eventually dropped it....
 
Then Mercury happened and it was so much fun and nice to work with that I simply kept on using it until Tungsten was given to us.... In most respects it's almost perfect for me so I don't forsee a lot of editing need for myself, but it's very cool...
 
...and if people start sharing skins? Who knows what we might find? ;-)
 
Thanks Bakers!

Does the Theme Editor work with the 'Mercury' theme' too?

The theme editor stores changes relative to the Mercury theme.

Are these shareable? Someone mentioned gimp - will photoshop work with it too?

Yes, user themes may be shared. Any image editor capable of saving images with transparent backgrounds will work.
