Incorporating theme graphics
The Studio's Theme Graphics tab provides a wide selection of ready-made
themed objects, which you can add to your pages with a single click. (Or you
can use a dialog if you prefer.) Theme graphics range from static "design

graphic once it's been added to a page. Once you've added theme graphics to
your site, you can instantly update any or all of them to use a different theme.
Using the Theme Graphics tab, you can view and select theme graphics in two
