Yeah, thanks so much for your boundless help and inspiration. I asked about favorite flat themes. I did not ask how to design a flat theme. My PM question was about monitor size requirements for Imperial. Why the attitude? I have found the members on this forum extremely helpful and kind........until this thread. Yikes!!!

the theme assembler does not require any learning, and lets you whip up a great looking mod of the default theme in a couple minutes.
it is
not a tool for designing a theme from scratch!! (nobody in this thread is trying to tell you how to design a flat theme. i think maybe there is a communication breakdown here) rather, it is a tool where you can be like "I like the default theme, but i want flat faders" and then literally
two clicks later, you are finished.
it's faster and easier than asking people the subjective question of "what is the best" because 100 people will give you 100 answers, and that's potentially 100 themes to try that won't necessarily suit you.
i'd link you my favorite theme, but i can't; it was made with theme assembler in about 5 minutes, so i'd never bother uploading it. anyone with five minutes to spare (which you obviously have, if you're posting on a forum), and no design knowledge whatsoever, can get better results
for themselves than i ever could
for them.
besides, i've never found a 3rd party theme that i liked well enough to use as-is without at least an hour's worth of tweaking shit—not knocking themers, it's just that we're all different! so if you're just expecting something perfect for your individual use case, designed by someone who has never met you and whose workflow is completely different than yours, with zero effort whatsoever required on your end, you might never find it and may end up wasting more time looking than you would have by just ... taking 5 minutes with the theme assembler ...
