Are there any existing theme mods for zMUD?
 
I'm looking to make the zMUD window look darker to match my desktop / Windowblinds theme and get rid of the general clunky grey Windows 95 look (I like the screen as dark as possible when MUDing.

Are there any mods or themes available, official or unofficial?

Shouldn't Windowblinds be able to theme zMUD?

Windowblinds and zMUD do not play nicely together because of the zMUD theming engine. Personally I'd suggest CMUD as it gets rid of the horrible clunky (sorry Zugg) theming engine altogether

Ok, I'd never tried heh. I don't theme anymore, at least not like that. I build custom themes for most progs these days.

It's very difficult to justify paying for CMUD when I just bought zMUD within the past 18 months, unfortunately.

There's an offer whereby you get CMUD free when you buy zMUD - I'm not sure how long the offer's been on, but it's been a fair old while, and I'm not sure if Zugg applies it retroactively, but you might be eligible.

The first comment about CMUD being available for download is 12 June 2006 so that is very close to 18 months. It's certainly worth emailing in to ask if you are eligible, 5 minutes of your time isn't much if you're not eligible and if you are you get a great program.

No, the discount is not retroactive, and the free CMUD offer is only valid within 30 days of the zMUD purchase (it's really just a way to avoid getting a lot of zMUD returns within 30 days for people who meant to get CMUD).
