Hello Paul,

I was in the same situation as you concerning the "Modern" theme,
but I have found another one called "Really Modern", written by a
guy named Chris Cunningham, and I am quite happy with that.

It is a .jar file and requires the Themer extension for installation,
but IMOH it worth !

Would you like to give it a try ?
