Comment:

 Hi Chris,

 Thank you for your interest in Myth Theming, and for your effort so far.
 For us to consider restoring Retro as an officially supported theme, it
 needs to be a complete port, not simply copying in the images.  I took a
 look at what you have done so far, which appears to be limited to some
 changes to the menu and copying in the old Retro images.  For retro to be
 restored, you will need to theme all the myth screens and windows, covered
 here:

 As it is, simply falling back to default is not really a port, at least
 not one that we can commit to trunk.  A port of Retro should contain the
 old retro layout when possible (in -ui.xml files, noticeably different
 than those found in default, stored in the actual Retro theme dir), and
 original layout for new windows that didn't exist before.

 I'm leaving this ticket infoneeded for now, you can follow up with whether
 you want to complete the effort on one of the lists.

 Once again, thanks for the effort so far.
