  • Pick a name for the new theme, let's say NameOfYourTheme
  • Invoke the theme generator with the name as the first argument
     hda-generate-theme NameOfYourTheme
  • The theme directory should be created at this point as NameOfYourTheme
  • cd into it
  • The theme screenshot file should be 640x480 and is located in
     app/theme/theme-sshot.png
  • The theme thumbnail file should be 64x64 and is located in
     app/theme/theme-thumb.png
  • The theme icon (for the installer in MyApps page), should be 48x48, and is located
     app/icon.png
  • The most important file in the theme is the CSS file, which contains the styling for the theme. The file is located in
     app/theme/style.css
