Bug description:
Hello!

While investigating Bug #667837 I deleted the theme (preview) image(s) in ~/.local/share/openlp/themes. When I started OpenLP all my themes were gone although the xml files are still present. Then I renamed a file and started OpenLP, the result was, that the renamed theme was present but using this theme will just show a black screen with white font colour.

The problem:
We use the preview images while loading themes (without checking if the theme exists). If an image exists OpenLP assumes a theme (with the same directory name exists) and if no image exists, OpenLP assumes that there is no theme.

I do not know why that is designed as it is (maybe there is a reason I do not know about), but to me that seems not working perfectly alright (well, you could always argue that nobody will delete the preview images, but I did :-P ).

Cheers
