TBD: screenshot of new design tab

Now let's cover the specifics.

Style-sheet overrides ROL-1368 To make it easy for folks to change theme colors and fonts, we've introduce the notion of a style-sheet override for each theme. Roller themes can now include a style-sheet override file and if you want to set your own colors and fonts, that's the place to add and change CSS.

In Roller 4.0 we've upgraded the foundations upon which Roller is built. Roller now requires Java SE 5, now uses Struts2 ROL-1439 instead of Struts1 and now includes a new JPA-based back-end implementation that completely replaces HibernateROL-1447.
