Give Sage a new look (without installing SageMC)

[herrdude]

Hello all,

I went through all the steps to set up SageMC with all the bells and whistles. I think it is fantastic the flexibility that is offered by SageMC. However, since I only use Placeshifter and Extender I found SageMC really heavy especially with animation on.

I wanted to give my standard sagetv a different look. I dug around in the sage folder (in my case: c:\Program Files\SageTV\SageTV\STVs\STV3\ as well as all the subfolders of c:\Program Files\SageTV\SageTV\STVs\STV3\Themes\). I changed the image Background.jpg for a cool fractal picture that I found (giving it the same name).

This is the end result. It definitely gives SageTV a new look. If you look closely I did a few other mods. I would like to learn how to change the font and other things. Any comments or ideas are welcome

Instead of just overwriting files in the Standard theme, you should create a new theme in a new directory under Themes. See the instructions in Theme.properties for details.
