Do I force the user to use a specific css stylesheet? What about a specific javascript library? What about when the user wants to have something quick that works, but wants to customize it later? My answer was pretty simple: I had the user set a variable in project.app_cfg, and I then include CSS and JS when the variables say to do so. The result is something that allows anybody to get something visible and working quickly (if it takes more than 5 minutes to install tgext.menu, you're doing something wrong), but still provides sufficient flexibility for later. Then again, you've come across that, and seen some of the limits I had put in (however unintentionally). You might want to consider the same. Include the default images *as* default images. Then let the user override them via config variables. It'll make both sides happier. -- Michael J.
