Just FYI, I have almost got the basics working theme dependantly,  
clBtnFont, clBtnface, clBtnShadow, clBtnHighlight, and clGrayText work for 
Brush's. Unfortunately I Have not figured out how to make Pen's work this 
way yet, because Pixmaps are ignored by Pen Styles. But If I can get some 
more of the other commonly used colors working, you should be able to get at 
least FillRect etc.. to match by using these SysColors. I will also be 
trying the same with background color and Text Color, so that Fonts and Form 
Backgrounds will also work this way whenever possible. As soon as I get the 
bugs worked out, I will be sending in a small patch with these changes, 
hopefully by wed. which will enabled you to make at least some of your 
component work properly without having to enable the newsyscolors flag.
