Put iDVD on a 1.5+ Gigabyte diet

Launch iDVD and write down the title of every theme you cannot live without. Quit iDVD.

Go to your application folder and control-click on the iDVD icon. Choose "Show Package Contents." Open the "Contents" folder then the "Resources" folder. Move all files that have the .theme extension (that are not on your favorites list) to a separate folder on your desktop. Burn this new folder onto a DVD-R then delete it. If you change your mind and there is a theme you want to use later on, you can always copy it back to this original location from the DVD-R.

In addition to saving up to two gigs of space, this procedure may also cut down the initial startup as well -- but I have not tested this.
