Any specific function you have problems with? Using the Uxtheme APIs
isn't different from using most other Win32 APIs, so pretty much any
P/Invoke article could be useful reading. I have some listed at

In addition, using either the GetThemeFont, GetThemeSysFont, GetThemeColor
and GetThemeSysColor always seem to return empty results...thanks for the
help!
