I post the actual how-to's that I have figured out for my intranet, and sometimes I really have to push my comfort level with the more technical stuff. And I suspect many designers tasked with dealing with SharePoint probably have admins that would have a coronary if we tried some more prgrammatic approaches, if we could even figure out how to do them ;) Hey Andy, your idea sounds cool, the only issue for me, and I suspect a lot of folks who are designers by trade and not programmers, is we wouldn’t have a clue how to do what you suggested.

The only option I found was altering the file in the _layouts directory (just like you're not supposed to...). Hey, actually, I suspect that you've mentioned this on my blog, now that I check my own one! http://www.novolocus.com/2007/11/02/the-lunacy-of-the-sharepoint-datepicker-control/ Regarding the caveat - all the ChangeSiteMasterPage does is recurse over the site and subsites setting the AlternateCSSUrl property of the SPWeb object. If you're not afraid of a little c# code, you could programmatically set the AlternateCSSUrl on a site-by-site basis. Recently I've been looking at using a feature receiver to programmatically apply a combination of theme and master pages (for both normal sites or meeting workspaces), though it does have to be activated site-by-site. You could build setting the alternate date-picker CSS into something like that. Actually, I might blog about both these things shortly! Oo – good idea.
