I found some old themes hiding in the SVN history. Maybe all they need is some updated file names. Things like search.gif become top_search.gif and such. I don't even know which version changed that requirement. The old social icons can be removed and YouTube added.

Several of them are still in the current file tree:

And a few of these were probably never updated...

We might want to reorganize this some day. In the meantime, I created two tags to make those themes easier to find.

xmb19x/tags/theme-archive1
xmb19x/tags/theme-archive2

And a third tag after I realized the first one got updated in Dec 2007 and eventually moved to trunk as well. It's confusing.

xmb19x/tags/theme-archive3

I remember those. Most of them just need a bit of image-tweaking, afaik, though they could probably do with a bit of tendering to in terms of their actual aesthetics.

I think I did something years ago with some of them to make them more presentable, but that was well before the recent theme overhauls in the back end.
