I have noticed in screen shots, the different colors of dice, and backrounds etc. Is this a "theme" or is this all edited by hand? I'm looking for a nice dnd overlay =).

Thanks

In addition to the new standard skin the 4E ruleset is bundled with 3 additional extension based themes. These are:


Dungeon - creates a bloodied/stone dungeon feel to FGII.
Metal - augments the standard skin and replaces the base color shield icons with metallic colored versions
Wood - re-creates the original FGII wooden desktop as used in the original Foundation, d20 and 3.5E rulesets.


The themes have been implemented as extensions allowing you to chop and change the feel of your game sessions very easily. Just select the extension theme you want before clicking Start to load up your campaign.

You can extend 4E with your own custom theme by simply copying one of the existing themes and replacing the graphic assets with your own. I am not aware of any guides per se but there are many of us who will be happy to help you out if you get stuck.
