The most important change in this release is how the default theme for Bodhi is now handled. After listening to the complaints of people more than a few times, I realized I needed to do with Bodhi's theme what we had done for applications - let the user make their own choice. As of 0.1.4 Bodhi now comes with two different themes, one light and one dark, and four different custom Enlightenment configurations to choose from.
When you boot your system for the first time (or the live CD) you are presented with a series of choices starting with language:

Next you select your theme color and Enlightenment layout:

Next you select what you want your menus to show for applications. 99.9% of people will want to select System Default, selecting Settings will cause your application menu to show applications that normally appear under Settings->All->System (and not any other applications).



For those who are wondering, the following are screen shots of what the four different layouts (and two new Enlightenment themes) look like.
