Create a custom theme

As alpha testing continues, I've been overhauling some areas which haven't seen much attention for a while. One such area is the files and directories management screen.
I've re-done the entire section to make it not only much prettier but much easier to use and more functional. I've tried to keep it as "dynamic" as I could and utilized a fair bit of javascript (yes, with AJAX) and some fancy DHTML to produce a display that allows you to upload files and watch the file listing get updated in real time without the need to visit upload forms and have the page refresh.
Also included is drag and drop move and click and hold title editing. I had a small breakdown getting it to work in Safari (argh!) and IE (double argh!). I'm not brave enough to try Opera just yet.
Notice in the movie how, when we move into another folder by clicking on its name, the drop down boxes for the "upload into folder" and "create new folder" change automatically (that was the double argh! for IE).
(Sorry about the light yellow mouse pointer in the movie. Ambrosia Software are working on an intel version of Snapz Pro. The PowerPC version doesn't work 100% on intel Macs)
