I imagine that this folder gets created or transferred into a theme folder in your N8xx's system during the installation process.

My Wish List:

This "images" folder can be created *before* ThemeMaker creates a .deb and not as a consequence of creating a .deb.

This would allow the theme's maker to be able to swap out, replace, change individual icon, image and applet .pngs in this folder before the .debbing process.

Oh, keeping with the original thread... here's my current trial-'n-error screenshot of one of my modified clocks.
Well, that's why there is the repackage button. So, after you have created the theme, I leave the folder there so that you can edit it as you see fit. You can also add new images in there and if you want, you can add postinst scripts to copy move or whatnot those images, audio, video or whatnot files to any place on the device.

So, after you've done your modifications, just click the repackage and it'll make the packaging, but won't extract the images from the template.
