Changing the default theme and page after installation - Sixteen96 - 2013-10-18

How can I change the default theme and page once installed?

In depth:
Making the template a template of my choice and the default "Welcome to GetSimple!" page/post to my own.

Thank you.

That isn't what I asked.

I want to change the template that displays when you first install GetSimple.

It is what you asked.

But lets try again.

Changing the admin theme?
Changing the default theme?
Changing the contents of the sampler page?
Putting branding on the installation screens?
Repackaging the whole CMS and putting your name on it?
Changing the Admin landing page?

What is it you want help with, my friend?

Changing your theme: admin > Theme > Choose theme
Changing/editing your default (index) page: just edit it

None of you have understood what I've asked.

Let me make myself clear, as I haven't in the original post. When you initially install GetSimple you have the default page "Welcome to GetSimple!" already created. How can I change what this page says so when I install GetSimple on different hosting accounts it already has a page of my choice already created.

Same for the theme... When I install it I want my own theme to be already activated, not a theme like Cardinal.

I didn't mean to sound "stuck up" in previous posts, apologise if I did.

Explanation of what I want above.

Theme is handled in setup.php
$xmls->addChild('TEMPLATE', 'Innovation');

I guess we could make this overridable somewhere.
