+## Contributing
+
+If you decide to contribute your own tmux themes, please try to base it on the
+`default.tmuxtheme` theme. This ensures that switching between themes works as
+it should a completely overwrites all settings from previous themes.
+
+If it's not possible to base your theme on my default one, something is
+probably missing from it. So please contribute a fix to the default theme too
+in that case :)
