Create Custom EasyBlog Theme

Hi,

I need to customize a theme for EasyBlog but am concerned that an update would overwrite included themes and wipe out my customizations. As a preferable solution, I would like to copy an existing theme and modify the copy under a custom name. I have copied a theme folder from components/com_easyblog/themes, renamed it, and uploaded it back onto the server. While the new theme appears in the theme list in the back-end of EasyBlog, when I click into the new theme, the config.ini and image.ini files aren't connecting. Looking through the documentation and forum, I was unable to find a process for doing this.

Is there a step-by-step for building a new theme for customization?

Thanks!
