<blockquote>Mark ClarkeHi all,<br /><br />I am creating a theme that will be used on several sites and I would like to enable users to change themes background image as well as background iimages in a layout template.

It appears it is not possible to make a theme dynamic with respect to images. You can use theme settings for text based configuration but uploading replacements images etc is not supported. I did look at writing a admin panel app to allow for the upload of pictures but couldn&#39;t find a way to get the image path of the target site&#39;s (non-admin) theme. The idea was to allow for the uploading of images to replace the images used by the theme and the admin plugin would simply copy the pictures over those of the theme. Another problem is that the theme image directory appears t be  shared by all sites using the theme.<br /><br />Looks like the only way to handle this would be a custom theme per site.
