Morkilus, thanks for the link to the GUI mod. From the looks of it, I still can't do what I had hoped. Dom2 let you load specific GUIs based on the nation you were playing. Seems the best we can do in Dom3 (still) is overwrite the image files for the single, universal GUI. Alas.
In Windows?
You can kindof. You can create a different desktop icon for different playings. Such as, I like Pangaea. I can create a shortcut using the modders library image of Lord of the Wild as an icon. That shortcut can run a bat file. The batfile can swap in a nice green gui set. Then it can call Dom3 with my favorite settings for playing Pangaea such as run in a window, no fades, no music, no credits screen, renaming on, large hall of heroes, strong indepts, maximum magic sites, high supplies and low resources for better AI play. Also auto-save backups on the games. Oh and put me directly into the game I was playing like other games that have a "resume game" option.

In Linux its even easier. In Mac Im sure its there but I dont know the particulars.
