Thunderbird Downloaded Themes Dark

I'm using Thunderbird 103.0b6 but this applies to previous versions all the way back to 94.0b1, the last version I didn't have this problem. When I download and install one of the simple blue themes and apply it, it automatically turns dark. The blue header or panel (theme) is there but the rest (see pic) appears to have defaulted to the TBird's Dark theme. It makes no difference if I change Windows mode to Light. Is there fix for this. Turning Hardware acceleration to Off makes no difference. Thanks

If Thunderbird is working okay without the theme, then you should pursue resolution with the theme author. This is also a beta you're using, so author may not yet have developed a version for it.

Thanks, David. This issue goes all the way back to the last version of Thunderbird which worked with this theme: I think, v.60.5.0. So you are probably right about the author.
