-Themes in Prado provide a way for developers to provide a consistent look-and-feel across an entire web application. A theme contains a list of initial values for properties of various control types. When applying a theme to a page, all controls on that page will receive the corresponding initial property values from the theme. This allows themes to interact with the rich property sets of the various PRADO controls, meaning that themes can be used to specify a large range of presentational properties that other theming methods (e.g. CSS) cannot. For example, themes could be used to specify the default page size of all data grids across an application by specifying a default value for the <tt>PageSize</tt> property of the <tt>TDataGrid</tt> control.

-A theme is a directory consists of skin files, javascript files and CSS files. Any javascript or CSS files contained in a theme will be registered with the page that the theme is applied to. A skin is a set of initial property values for a particular control type. A control type may have one or several skins, each identified by a unqiue <tt>SkinID</tt>. When applying a theme to a page, a skin is applied to a control if the control type and the <tt>SkinID</tt> value both match to those of the skin. Note, if a skin has an empty <tt>SkinID</tt> value, it will apply to all controls of the particular type whose <tt>SkinID</tt> is not set or empty. A skin file consists of one or several skins, for one or several control types. A theme is the union of skins defined in all skin files.
