      I don't know either, but it shouldn't be too hard for someone to do right?  I think you can just modify the images and the icons in the theme folder.

      If you are good at graphical editing you could create some cool looking themes yourself!  Just submit it to Collin so we all can share!!

      I DON'T think if making a whole bunch of themes is a good idea though.  The purpose of an IDE is to provide productivity programming tools; the purpose of an IDE is NOT to provide eye candy.

      Maybe a little off topic and lame, but here it goes:

      My apps,  coded using dev-cpp and win32 api calls will look "XP Style" when executed under windows XP? Or i have to use new api commands if i want my apps to look like that?

        Nope, you 'll have to either include a manifest as a special resource type (RT_MANIFEST), or have the manifest file in the same dir as your executable and named accordingly (e.g. exename.exe.manifest)
