I've been asked several times for a black theme for the Ribbon Project.

Although this was already planned for the next release, I decided to give the hint.

In order to get a black themed ribbon, you should this:

• Download available code
• Download attachment to this article BlackRibbon.zip
• Replace files found on the zip to the original article's

After adding the files, apply the following code on form's initialization:

///
/// Form's constructor
///
public Form1()
{
    InitializeComponent();

    //Apply black renderer to ribbon1
    (ribbon1.Renderer as RibbonProfessionalRenderer).ColorTable = 
          new RibbonProfessionalRendererColorTableBlack();
}

And that's it.

Enjoy!
