One question I have about theme creation is...
How do you replace the orange round icons ??

when I read the theme_creation.txt (version 1.3) lines 319-334

Images Directory
----------------------
This could be a storage place for your theme.tpl graphics if you wanted to,
but it serves a more
important purpose. If a module developer codes their module to take
advantage of image swapping,
then you can easily adapt their module to your theme. All you need to do is
copy an identically named
graphic into a directory named the same as the module.

For example, some of the original module icons are hideous (I can say that,
I made them ;-), so for
the Default theme, I wanted something more simple. Since the "users" module
handles the module
icons, I just placed Default's new, little, orange icons in the
themes/Default/images/users/
directory. Voila! Those are used instead of the blocky blue ones.

Not all modules may take advantage of this, but if you ask the module
developer, it is easy for
them to support it.

Check the module's documentation for more details.

I tried this..
I would like to replace the orange icons..  with something else...  I am
assuming that since the users module was written as an example in this
document,  that it should work.. since not all modules may take advantage of
this feature.

what I did was take the user.gif out of    ./mod/user/img and placed a
black&white copy in ./themes/MyThemName/images/users/
this didn't work.. so I also created a ./themes/MyThemName/images/users/img/
and place it in their as well.

No luck :(

Is this feature still available ???  or am I reading something wrong ??
