Is there a site that has 3rd party themes for MythTV?

Or is there not much of a theming community?

AFAIK, the good ones make it onto:

I DL/d the MePo theme to run on R5D27. Cute! I loved it. And I liked how the filesize (GB) showed on the "watch recordings" screen. (I had a crashed recorder card, and it was helpful to spot the 0GB ones).

But the kids hated it. I'm back to BlooTubeLiteWide.
I think we all like the soothing blues of BlooTube, and that a MePo based on BlooTube would have made it.

I think MythTV needs a cute mascot, but MePo ain't it.

I've been toying with the idea of doing my own theme for a while now, but as I have NO time at the present to spare for such an undertaking (all I can manage is a quick post, let alone do any maintenance to my Mythbox) I've put the idea on hold.

It would be cool to have more themes I think (though I'd probably stick with Retro after trying them) . There are more available than the ones included as default, perhaps they can be added by the live patcher?

Perhaps a 'KnoppMyth Theme' needs developing which has a suitable mascot?

Hey tjc, what kinda mascot did you have in mind?

I know I spent last night tweaking the blootube wide theme (it looks good even in 4:3 SD oddly) Changed some fonts to be easier to read on my tv.

I am currently tweaking the Pear-odyTV (and here) Theme for SD. Almost complete. Should look pretty slick when completed.

cool. I'm trying to think up a way to implement a clock in a theme...I've got some ideas, just not sure what will work yet.

Got to look into the code to see how they did the video preview panel.

Well, since I haven't found one, I'm going to setup a site for user myth themes, so they don't have to be scattered across the web to find.

Sounds like a plan to me.

How will it be different from the MythWiki page thornsoft linked to?
Will it be for hosting themes?

With .21 there is a date/time widget in the fronted.

The current clock is a digital clock format, if you are talking about a clock more like the Apple clock widget never mind my comment.
