    Great job — have you talked with Kapikua about the possibility of releasing your English translated version of the Leia Theme with your tweaks included? I’m sure I’m not the only one who’d love to get an English translation of this beautiful theme :)

    Kapikua appears to have posted an English version of the theme at http://www.kapikua.com/theme-leia-en/ –I hope that gives you a good starting point for your adaptation!
