Jim,

	There was one thing I forgot to say in the previous post. 

	Thanks a lot for your effort. Project like Zurgle is not
something that happen very often.

	I hope I did not offend you in any way. That's not my intention.

	(thought that the smileys would help).

	Cheers,

	PhiHo.

No, you don't *have* to drag the themes and bitmaps into the image. You
are
welcome to rewrite the package if you feel it is bloated, though I would
suggest that you start from scratch and come up with a better bloatless
design.

No, you don't have to follow the directions. However, if you don't
follow
the directions, you will get a lot of empty files, and the changeset
will
not file in correctly. However, if you don't follow the directions it
does
help with the bloat factor.

After you create the new image and changes file, you can save them to
another directory and delete the build directory and files. As you know,
this is a development project still in testing, and others have
requested
that all of the source files be made available. Therefore, all of the
files
for a build from scratch are included.
