Oh, man.

Downloaded the updated ThemeMaker, saw the short tutorial on youtube, gave up :::sigh:::.

PhotoShop just seems a bit too technical for doing basic things like filling in shapes with a different colour and working with transperancy.

Anyone have a simpler, elementary application (OS X-ized) that can handle .png files? I had a great one for a scanner I had in OS Classic that never made the jump to OS X and ever since then, I've just kind of avoided PhotoShop whenever possible.

Or a more encompassing tutorial than the barely 2-minute one Uhro's kindly provided on youtube. I think the video suffers what happens with all brilliant, patient (and probably burned-out ) developers; the process becomes so obvious that the presenter forgets that newbies need a bit more hand-holding

*LoVe* the new theme he made, though. Lovely to see a lighter one for lighter background images.

It's a welcome change and alternative to the other, darker themes that sometimes overwhelm the background images.
