Applying SharePoint Themes using SharePoint Object Model

I had a requirment where I need to get all the available themes and apply or remove a themes in SharePoint using SharePoint Object Model. Here is the code which helps to do this:

// To get all available themes using SharePoint Object Model
            using (SPSite site = new SPSite("http://localhost"))
            {
                using (SPWeb web = site.OpenWeb())
                {
                    ReadOnlyCollection<ThmxTheme> themes = ThmxTheme.GetManagedThemes(site);
                    foreach (ThmxTheme theme in themes)
                    {
                        Console.Write("Theme Name: {0}\nServer Relative Url: {1}\n\n", theme.Name, theme.ServerRelativeUrl);
                    }
                }
            }

            // To apply a theme to a SharePoint Web using SharePoint Object Model
            using (SPSite site = new SPSite("http://localhost"))
            {
                using (SPWeb web = site.OpenWeb())
                {
                    ThmxTheme theme = ThmxTheme.Open(site, "/_catalogs/theme/Viewpoint.thmx");
                    theme.ApplyTo(web, false);
                    try
                    {
                        web.Update();
                        Console.Write("\nUpdated web with theme: {0}", theme.Name);
                    }
                    catch (Exception e)
                    {
                        Console.Write("Error: {0}\nStack Trace: {1}\n\n", e.Message, e.StackTrace);
                    }
                }
            }

            //  To remove a theme to a SharePoint Web using SharePoint Object Model
            using (SPSite site = new SPSite("http://localhost"))
            {
                using (SPWeb web = site.OpenWeb())
                {
                    try
                    {
                        ThmxTheme.RemoveThemeFromWeb(web, false);
                        web.Update();
                        Console.Write("\nRemoved theme from SPWeb");
                    }
                    catch (Exception e)
                    {
                        Console.Write("\nError: {0}\nStack Trace: {1}\n", e.Message, e.StackTrace);
                    }                    
                }
            }
