problem with amber11rc2 theme settings

[alexshah]

Hello my fellow admins and good people at large!

I love the Theme "amber11rc2" but I have ONE (maybe 2) problem(S) with it:

namely

1) on "current theme settings screen" I cannot change anything because as soon as I hit SAVE button - the entire site changes its theme !?!? to default SMF theme.

What is causing this and how could I get it fixed?

lastly

2) Is there a way to modify the front page of the forum site by adding custom images and text to it?
I feel a bit limited with the pre-existing options that come with themes (or is the edit of themes specific to the theme?)

thanks a bunch for your attention (And help hopefully!)

Alex
