This theme is not official and just loosely follows the provided PowerPoint template. Any suggestions for improvements are welcome on Github.

\framesubtitle{A short introduction to the West University of Timișoara Theme}
The \textbf{UVT Theme} (used as \texttt{\textbackslash usetheme\{uvt\}}) is a
modern theme for Beamer based on the official
\textcolor{UVTLightBlue}{UVT branding}\footnotemark[1]. Some
of its elements and styling are inspired by \textcolor{UVTLightBlue}{Trigon}
theme\footnotemark[2].
\bigskip
It comes with a few nifty features:
\begin{itemize}
\item Use of the official color scheme for UVT throughout.
\item Customized environments.
\item As close as possible to the official template.
\end{itemize}
\bigskip
Separate parts are available as e.g. \texttt{\textbackslash usecolortheme\{uvt\}}!

\section{Styling Elements}
\begin{frame}{UVT Theme: Colors and Fonts}
This theme uses the \emph{Myriad Pro} font. This is a clean \emph{sans serif}
font from Adobe that is recommended by the official UVT branding.
\bigskip
The theme has three standard colors:
\begin{itemize}
\item A nice \textcolor{UVTLightBlue}{\textbf{light blue}} (\texttt{UVTLightBlue}).
\item A bolder \textcolor{UVTDarkBlue}{\textbf{dark blue}} (\texttt{UVTDarkBlue}).
\item An attention grabbing \textcolor{UVTYellow}{\textbf{yellow}}
(\texttt{UVTYellow})!
\item Variants \texttt{color!x} can also be used to darken or lighten them
\end{itemize}
\bigskip
These can be used for emphasizing \textcolor{UVTLightBlue}{text} or for
more obvious \alert{alerts}. Standard \textbf{bold} and \textit{italic} emphasis
can of course also be used!
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}{UVT Theme: Blocks}
We have various standard Beamer blocks styled in a pleasing fashion.
