[applekeynote] Third Party Theme Previews

I don't know if anyone has already posted this, but here's a quick and
easy way to get your third party themes to look as nice as the Apple
themes in the new Keynote release.

1. Open a new document, and select one of your custom themes. Make
seven slides: 1. Title; 2. Picture center; 3. Picture right; 4. Title
and bullets; 5. Table; 6. Bar graph; 7. Pie chart.

2. Save as a theme in the file menu. I've been archiving the previous
versions of the themes in a folder called Legacy Themes in case I need
them again.

3. There is no step three.

Now the image quality of your custom theme will be better in the theme
chooser, and it will have previews when you mouse over the theme!
Rinse and repeat as needed!

Enjoy!
Robert
