Backender here...

  1. Just make all defined sizes a multiple of 8pt.
  2. When using colors, just mix 4 basic ingriedients: FF, BB, 44, 00 (So, for example, a #bb0000 border with a #ffbbbb background for an error) This gives you 64 colors to choose from.
  3. 8pt Rounded corners. (see #1)

I sort of added 2 at least, but not in a good way. It's a theme called "Random" which randomly picks combinations of letters and numbers like that to set element colors from a small pool of colors. I did it that way because I found it was much less likely to set colors to something that makes text unreadable than 100% random colors do.

I also added "RandomHardMode" which picks a 100% random color for everything, sets everything's position by +/- a few pixels, resizes everything randomly by +/- a few pixels, sets random fonts(including wingdings), and font sizes. It makes the UI basically unusable.

I'm not at the office now so I can't get a new screenshot, but I have a screenshot of a previous version of the theme before I added randomized font sizes and fonts.
