Need to Remove Messed up Themes

[chris_s]

Just a heads-up: OneBit_VFD includes a theme file whose name is identical to that of OneBit VFD by Ben Clayton (OneBit_VFD.cfg in both instances), which results in one of them being overwritten when installing both.

Will fix now. New version will be the same name in theme website but once installed will read as, OneBit_VFD2 I don't really have an elegant solution.

I guess technically the issue is that OneBit VFD didn't use the exact theme name for its cfg file and resources folder. Seems to make sense to enforce that for future themes  .

Hmm, I suppose it is possible to ensure all theme contents are uniquely named (we already extract the file list from the theme zip files) but we'd want to exclude "shared" stuff -- fonts come to mind.   Is there anything else that may be typically shared?

(Being able to see what fonts are shared across multiple themes might make it easier to identify fonts that could be pulled into the global font pack...)

Anything in the icons folder and bitmaps in a theme's wps folder are the two things I can think of. Excluding bitmap and .icon files probably makes the most sense. A few themes have reshipped icon sets I made for my themes without renaming them, an argument could be made that each theme's icon sets should be named with the theme name but you have cases like the refresh series on iPods where it makes some sense for them to share the same icon set.
