Yeah, the beos window theme seemed like a good idea... until i finished it ^_^.

I still think i am going to work some beos colors into it, and i would also 
like to use haiku icons (as long as this is ok with Axel, err the icon creator)

Keep the ideas coming, i have searched for premade  "software archive" scripts 
and none seem to exist (well, as least on hotscripts.com).  If anyone knows of 
premade "software archive" scripts (php hopefully) it would be GREAT if they 
let me know.  If not, ill just have to whip something up in php. (which will 
make the site take a little longer :P)
