Colors in Manage->Upcoming are blue, not in keeping with theme.
Same for the volume bar in Media Library->Listen to Music
Same for Manage->Schedule->Guide

Other than that, I think it's pretty well done.
I personally wouldn't use it though. It lacks color. It's too monochromatic.
(not that the default theme isn't, but blue is a less depressing color than
gray).

Is there a site where themes can be downloaded? I'd like to try some others.

Someone should make Thanksgiving and Christmas themes!
:)
