Hi All,
I've been enjoying the themes that others have been creating, but figured I'd try something different and create a light theme as opposed to the darker Tungsten based variations that I actually prefer.  
 
My working name has been "White Theme 1" but since it's not really white I thought a rename was in order.  So with that said, this is my "Polar Blue" theme: https://www.dropbox.com/s...0%28SteveC%29.zip?dl=0
 
For some reason it's a lot bigger than the themes I've downloaded so I've zipped it for convenience.  If you have any suggestions for minor changes here and there just let me know!
 
 
Oh... and I forgot to bring the screen capture image with me to share here as a preview, so I'll have to do that later tonight.

I downloaded it and like it a lot, very classy/tasteful. I might copy over my white or semi-monochromatic control bar when winter hits to make it even more polar 
 
As to the size, you're probably modifying more elements than average, so the new graphics files have to be included in the theme.

Thanks, gents!  I'm glad to see it's working OK for you.  
 
Craig: OK, that makes sense since I did replace some of the graphics and also modified the @#$% out of quite a few others.
 
And thanks for posting the pic, Bob.

Like it a lot! The only thing that's hard for me to see is the meters in the Performance Monitor section of the control bar. How can I cange the color?

Thanks, Outland.  That's one down and twenty to go to reach your output.  
 
Unfortunately, pinguinotuerto, those meters can't be modified, or at least not using the Theme Editor.  So yeah, they are fairly light against the grey background, a trade-off for now.
 

For reference, here's a combo image I put together showing some of the dialogs and tools.  It aint perfect but in some sadistic way it was fun to do.

Reminds me of how Cake software looked many years ago.  Nice job Steve though it is a little to light for my taste.
