Where did "_Themes" directory go in 4.0?

I have Gary Kleiner's tutorial DVDs on DVDA 3.0. He mentions that you can find the graphic images for all of the button frames in a "_themes" directory under the DVD Architect folder in Program Files (in order to create menus in PhotoShop). I'm using 4.0 now, and that folder is nowhere to be found. I know they moved copies of the .thm files under documents and settings. But that is only the .thm files. I need the individual frame graphic files (.png, I think).

Are they no longer available? Or have they just been moved someplace that I can't find?

Thx.

The themes stay as a "zipped" folder (with a .thm extension)
until they are needed.

You can unzip them as needed to make changes and then
rezip them. Then change the .zip filename to .thm

DVDA4 will then find them.

I just ran into that same problem also. Decided just to reinstall DVDA 3 quickly, copied the theme folder to a different location and uninstalled DVDA 3. Now all of the buttons, frames, etc are readily available to open in PS for editing.

ps: that's a great training dvd isn't it?
