These are some additional themes I made for my eComStation 1.03.  Maybe others will find some of these themes useful also.

Unzip the more_eCS_themes.zip into a temporary directory.  Then copy all the files to the following directory.

<drive>:\os2\thememgr

Where <drive> is the partition you have eComStation installed to.

Then highlight and copy the lines below and add them to the following file with a text editor: 

<drive>:\os2\thememgr\thememgr.idx

 eComStation - classic theme 2   ecs2.dll      ecs2.bmp
 Warp 3 Colored Buttons          warpb3.dll    warpb3.bmp
 eComStation - rainbo theme      ecsrainbo.dll  ecsrainbo.bmp
 eComStation - winlike color     ecswinc.dll    ecswinc.bmp
 eComStation - winlike color grey   ecswincg.dll    ecswincg.bmp
 Warp 3 - color added            warp3col.dll  warp3col.bmp

 Warp     - negative warp        warpneg.dll   warpneg.bmp

My thememgr.idx files entries are as follows.

 * eComStation ThemeManager index file *

 all lines not starting with '' are just ignored
 file format:
  theme description  dll file name  sample image
 if any of the files (dll or bmp) is not in the same path as this file,
 it is necessary to specify the full path

To remove, just delete the following files from the directory:

<drive>:\os2\thememgr

ecs2.dll
ecs2.bmp
warpb3.dll
warpb3.bmp
ecsrainbo.dll
ecsrainbo.bmp
ecswinc.dll
ecswinc.bmp
ecswincg.dll
ecswincg.bmp
warp3col.dll
warp3col.bmp
ecs2.dll
ecs2.bmp
warpneg.dll
warpneg.bmp

Then using a text editor remove the following entries from the file:

<drive>:\os2\thememgr\thememgr.idx

 eComStation - classic theme 2   ecs2.dll      ecs2.bmp
 Warp 3 Colored Buttons          warpb3.dll    warpb3.bmp
 eComStation - rainbo theme      ecsrainbo.dll  ecsrainbo.bmp
 eComStation - winlike color     ecswinc.dll    ecswinc.bmp
 eComStation - winlike color grey   ecswincg.dll    ecswincg.bmp
 Warp 3 - color added            warp3col.dll  warp3col.bmp
 eComStation - classic theme 2   ecs2.dll      ecs2.bmp
 Warp     - negative warp        warpneg.dll   warpneg.bmp

Save the revised thememgr.idx.  A reboot may be necessary.

To remove a certain theme(s), remove the *.bmp(s) and *.dll(s) for the theme(s) and delete the corresponding line(s) from the thememgr.idx files.

I have also included the *.res files if anyone cares to improve on the themes.

There is an excellent article found in the VOICE Newsletter dated 08/2002 which details how one can create their own themes.
