Themes are FANTASTIC!
 
Just downloaded the new version of Calibre and to my surprise noticed themes. Big kudos to those involved in creating this - I really love being to able to use themes in order to customize Calibre. Thanks again for a really great feature! Hope to see more themes as time goes on!

You're welcome :) All I did was add the theme installer. All the hard work was done by the individual theme creators.

I'll confess to previously having been totally unaware of Themes. But now I know of them where do I find them? Help doesn't seem to lead to anywhere useful. I've found Icon themes in Look and Feel but that's all. I have Ver 2.36.

That opens up a fancy list box, select one and it will download, then needs a restart.

I like my icon set best ;)

Thanks for the reply. However, I'd noticed the icon themes. I was just wondering if there were any other sorts of themes.

Nope, just the icon ones.

You have always been able to install replacement icons in your configuration folder, but it's certainly easier to handle them now. :thumbsup: Kovid.

Thanks. I think I may have been infected by the OP's enthusiasm into expecting them to be available by the hundred. :)

eschwartz 09-01-2015 04:58 PM

One day, hopefully. :)

But people need to make them. ;) Why don't you set a good example for us?

<Wish list>

Steampunk theme,
Ancient (Library/Monastery) theme


:chinscratch: Should we have a Theme Wishlist sticky???

Wow. These really are great. "Monstre", for example, has caused much geeking-out.

Can't wait to see what other themes pop up.

I've been using the Monstre icon theme for a while now and it's cool. Nifty feature, nice add-ons.

Buuuut.... Has anyone else noticed that the up and down button icons in Monstre are reversed? Or is that some subtle hipster thing I just don't get? ;)

(Didn't want to necro [THEME] CALIBRE Monstre - beta.)

You probably should post in the monstre thread, that way the creator of the theme is likely to get notified and can hopefully either fix it or explain why it is the way it is.
