I have a Silverlight 3 application containing six custom user controls. I'd like to load the colour scheme for these controls from an external resource.

The code and XAML containing a default colour scheme would be built in the XAP. Then a parameter on the object tag would contain a URL from where alternate colours can be dynamically loaded.

By the way, the Silverlight 3 application theme feature could be used if that's possible but is really overkill. Only colours need to be changed.

Is this possible and how would you recommend to do it?
