Just quickly browsing to the Gigabeat gallery, there are unofficial builds attached as well as the WPS "package."

I've seen this in the 320x240 gallery also.

zips attached, not builds linked to an external sites.

Good Point.  Features, should we only list patches that a specific unofficial build will need in order for the WPS to work?

X WPS
  * needs Album Art and Scroll Margins patch in order to view as shown.

or

X WPS
   * Able to support Album Art and Margins for scrolling text.

The latter may lead some to believe that downloading the WPS and loading it on an official build will subsequently "enable" those features. No?

The Galleries need organizing.  Someone has volunteered to start it.  Suggestions on how it should be done are what he's asking for.  
I hope no one takes the above as being rude, they're really just light harded assessments of the original post.

Let's face it, people like the cool features and looks of the WPSs that artists and the like put there time and effort into creating.  They want to share their work with the Rockbox community.  That's what the wiki/gallery is for.  Organizing it into a more user friendly and intuitive format is a good idea.

lights0ut:
Would it be a good idea to physically separate the themes that work on the current build from the themes that work only on unsupported builds? (i.e. separate galleries)

I was just thinking that the TOC section of the Wiki would be more useful that way because with one combined gallery there will be this:

Themes that work with current build
...........
..........
.........

and then in the middle of all this

Themes that work only with unsupported builds

etc.
.

Come to think of it now, I could just use an HTML link instead of the the wiki's TOC so it would be:
current build                  unsupported

TOC

Llorean:
Any unsupported builds actually attached to the wiki need to be removed. Please point out where they are so that I can see to it this happens.

scorche:
I was thinking of going with the SOAP seal with different colored icons denoting WPSs that will work with SVN builds versus ones that require patches.

Regardless, I plan on having this topic be one of the topics discussed in DevCon-West.

Domonoky:

One thing i really would like to see, is the integration of rockbox-themes.org, because rbutil (the future official rockbox utility) can now install Themes from this site.
This is not possible with the wiki.
So it would be really good, if, atleast, the Themes which dont requiere custom build are aviable via this site, or something similar.
