A theme is a configuration file, stored in a specific directory, that typically changes

such as background image and text colours.
There are a number of themes that ship with Rockbox. If none of these suit your
needs, many more can be downloaded from
http://themes.rockbox.org/index.php?
Note:
Themes do not have to be purely visual. It is quite possible to create a theme
