O.P. [Request] 365 Auto-Theme Script
hi everyone

as part of my skin i was wanting to add auto-theme technology, now then in skinning alone thats not acheivable, however i had an idea on how this can be done, some skins use .reg files to remove messengers ads, they do this by use of a path in the registry where you can find all the settings for your skin, in my skin my theme option has a REG_SZ setting in registry, now then in theory all i need is a script that can lookup the current date and on a certain date, set that REG_SZ value in my skins global settings to the desired theme name thus creating automatic theme selection (365 Auto-Theme).

now then in scripts i found a registry editing feature which is:

MsgPlus::ScriptRegPath

now assuming that can edit a skins registry settings then all i need for this to become a reality is a script developer who would like to create this script, of course i will give you credit for your hard work and the autotheme script could be packaged up in 365's skin pack.

now then i was thinking about the scripts options panel, some of my themes occur same date every year like christmas day etc, others like mothers day the date varies from one year to the next so the ones that are same date every year could be hard coded and the others like mothers day and birthday etc could be set from the scripts options panel so youd set a date then select which theme should be set on that date.

anyways if anyone would like to sink their teeth into this project please let me know, i have tried scripting several times and have really struggled with it so a script like this is far beyond my own abilities so any help people can give me would be greatly appreciated.
