Is there any way to make multiple styles which all use the same template set? I just want to be able to change the colors & images without having to worry about editing multiple template sets each time i make a change.

Sure, I do this on my site. I have a style called "Layout" that is not selectable where I do all my template changes and then I have several child styles that are selectable and that have different Main CSS and StyleVar settings (but no template changes).

when you edit the main template set "Layout", does it handle all the child styles too? if so, that's great. thanks

Yeah, as long as you haven't edited any of the templates in the child styles. If you don't edit the templates in the child styles, then they just inherit the templates from their parent. If you edit the child template though, it will no longer inherit any changes you make in the parent template.
