Using Themes with Visual Studio 2008 and VSeWSS

Sweet!  10 new SharePoint Themes released!  Each theme is represented as a Visual Studio 2008 solution that you can use with Visual Studio Extensions for Windows SharePoint Services 1.3.  This is cool because it shows you how VSeWSS 1.3 will use the child “templates/themes” directory in your project and copy that to the themes directory in the 12 hive.

Each theme is a Visual Studio 2008 Solution, but if you want to see how you could package all the themes at once instead of deploying individually, see Daniel Brown’s blog for a single WSP with 10 features.

I’ll be covering this in an upcoming screencast… watch this space.
