Maybe you can contact the author of neon-theme. Just tried it out (looks like back in the 80's

) and realized that the background doesn't get dark when going to setup. That would be really helpful in arranging icons

#1: normal background

OK.. What's the deal here, I got another update and did so but I only see the Black theme and NOT the other colors!!

How do I get the Orange or Blue?

Thanks!

Maybe they're still in addon pack #1? I didn't see a statement from d-livil saying that he already integrated the base colors in main package again.

Just did it. Sorry for messing your heads, but it indeed makes more sense to include at least the basic schemes with the "main" package. Liquids, Deeps and coffees are in the addon pack which also is soon available for upgrade.

I think you have to upgrade the add-on packs as well to get the other color schemes, as they were removed from the base pack to make it smaller.

@D-livil: another suggestion as the packaging of themes into secondary packages is already done.

Would you mind thinking about packaging colors together? Like all blue variations in one package, all green ones, all yellow ones and so on. Updates of theme packages would decrease in size and the user would have the ability to choose a base color (i.e. the corresponding color package) and then select the favourite flavour like plain or liquid.
Your packages are again getting really huge and today's update just fetched about 40MB! Much of the content I will never use as I don't like the base color.

So far thanks for your fantastic work!

Thanks! Found the setting. Uploading an upgrade atm. This will be the last upgrade today

Oh no! No more splitting packages into million different packages

Original idea of coding the scheme selector was to reduce the amount of packages in repos (that pissed of people).
