well, there are few usable and complete themes out there. Thus there are 
few screenshots with them

There are however, if you look on the website, wiki or on the few blogs, 
there is a good percentage of screenshots taken with different themes, 
including windows.

However, given that few themes are finished enough to be called usable 
and given that we have few screenshots circulating at all.... one could 
get that impression indeed.

More than a boring "mega gallery", their appearance need to be felt 
natural, see my other post about that.

Of course, theme needs to be packaged, but themes need to be finished 
too. I consider my themes still very rough, although Sleek is close to a 
release.
