The pictures would be simple to replace, there are only a few icons (and
they aren't even very pretty :-). The problem is the large part of HTML
code with "tags" that get replaced by the back end. Replacing all this
will be a very large task. It will also mean a fork from the original
Open-Xchange which I think would be a shame.
