With all due respect, absolutely no way!  There's more than enough
demarcation between areas and I think most people will agree.  That's
what the lines are all about.  But - once the theme is on your machine
you can do whatever you like with it.

w.r.t. the 'vast' amount of RAM this theme uses - for the most part
due to the greatly enlarged 'watermarks' (the images associated with
menu buttons) and then the amount of individual menu backgrounds.

If you're running mythfrontend on 1920x1080, all the graphics will be
scaled up from the base of 1280x720 and stored in the themecache at
the rescaled size.  Then they're loaded into RAM.

A workaround for this might be to use different resolutions for tv
viewing & the menus (i.e. run at a lower res but use mythtv's
resolution switching for playback).

If you feel it uses too much RAM you don't have to use it, after all
is said & done ;)
