I agree - the default Classic look and setup shown on the main webpage is always going to be the main focus. I also only want to add what I consider essential patches and enable/disable options, hence the lack of eye candy extras such as Birdie skins, Menubar replacements, widgets and Startmenu thingies.

The optimized 16 screenmodes and Themes actually help performance on some packs due to less colours (eg ADVSP), but of course you lose some Fastram for the wallpaper due to the uncompressed IFF image.

Apart from that, these themes don't really change much apart from offer a few different starting points and show users what's possible.
