  • You say you want to theme an image - do you mean putting a frame around the image or do you want to associate certain images with a selected theme ? Commented Feb 12, 2011 at 11:36

I think I know what you're trying to say, and I would go about it like this:

  1. Apply a theme to your site, then run it
  2. Take a screenshot of your homepage
  3. Open Paint and paste the screenshot onto the canvas
  4. Save the image as "MySite_Theme1" or something like that

Once you have followed these steps for each of your themes, do the following to apply each preview to a button

  1. Add the screenshots to your site's Images folder.
  2. Go back into your site and create an <asp:ImageButton> for each theme. Apply ID, ImageURL, ImageAlign, runat, Height, and Width. The control should resize the image based on the button's height & width.
  3. Go to changing themes with buttons, how? for coding the code behind.

I hope this helps you out

EDIT: I would also look for the book Beginning ASP.NET in C# & VB. Wrox is the publisher. I have found that and a lot more at www.wowebook.com :)

Sounds like this solution will have problems on computers running different resolutions than yours?

You could use ASP.NET Themes which could be changed dynamically at runtime.
