Tenants administer their sites by using a site template titled Tenant Administration,
which is associated with a subscription ID. This site template is hidden and can be
granted to tenants only by a farm administrator.
Branding
There have been a number of changes related to branding the user interface added to
Microsoft® SharePoint® Server 2010.
Themes
In previous versions of SharePoint Server and SharePoint Foundation (known previously
as Windows® SharePoint Services), themes were a common way to change the look and
feel of the site. Administrators could go to the Site Settings page and select from one of
several themes. Although this was a quick and easy way to make your site look different
from the default site, often the themes available out of the box didn’t match the
corporate brand for a particular organization. In those cases, the options were either to
create a custom theme, which required some development and modification of files on
the server, or a company would just have to accept what was available.
SharePoint Server 2010 has changed the way themes work, making them easier to
customize. Users who have created a custom theme in Microsoft Office PowerPoint®
might notice that the interface to create themes looks very similar. In fact it is very
similar! It is actually possible to import PowerPoint themes directly into SharePoint
Server. Additionally, themes can now be applied to all subsites from this interface. The
new themes functionality in SharePoint Server 2010 will make it faster and easier than
ever before for administrators to create and deploy a customized user interface.
