    Metro Theme Customization Made Easy

    Simplicity is one of the corner stones for the visual appeal of all Metro UIs. Simplicity allows the theme to be largely consistent and make development of the UI of any program a breeze. But there is a risk. The risk of many applications looking alike. Are we facing a homogenization of the next version of UIs?
