    Default.zip
    Attached is a zip that contains a sorta template for new themes. The manifest.json contains all values that can be altered and for the colors and tints the values have been set to the default themes values. All image lines have been commented out, so if you wish to change that image remove the // and place your image in the images directory named the same used in the value after images/. Also keep in mind if uploading to the extension gallery you must remove all comments so remove any line starting with // before uploading.

    These values where correct at time of posting but may change or have new values added. Please check the following url to check for yourself....

    ...as advised here....

    One of the reasons I did the above was coz I noticed a value I hadnt seen and thought Id see what it does, theme_frame_overlay.
    Unlike theme_frame which repeats horizontally but not vertically (which is why we have the frame color value to fill the rest), theme_frame_overlay doesnt repeat in either direction and goes over frame. This is actually very usefull.
    Heres a screen shot in which the red is frame and the green is the frame_overlay....
