Excellent theme.
Love those icons- and the default fonts too.
That's something I always look for in the themes- the uniqueness of their design.

I only wish the home screen had a sequence like this:
> Messages
> Calendar
> Address Book
> Browser
> Applications

I don't use the messenger at all.
Would it be too much trouble asking for the sequence on my wish-list?

Thanks for a great theme!

Thanks for this! This is the best theme I've seen yet - I always prefer the Today themes.

Colors and design look great. The biggest problem is the same usual problem I have with virtually every theme. Fonts are so small that they're inaccessible to anyone with a visual impairment. Also, I prefer the big clock on the home screen as well so I can look at the time without any effort at all.

Plazmic really should fix that problem with their Theme SDK so users can change the font size/style on themes they install.

I really don't believe it's a problem with Plazmic. Developers design the font sizes/style specifically to suit their theme design. Some themes would not look correct if users were able to change the fonts. A big clock on my Titanium theme would not look good as it is not designed for a big clock, its designed for a small one.

I make some themes with big clocks, and some with small clocks. Unfortunately there is no single design or template that 100% of the users will like, there will always be admirers and haters of each theme made.

I try my best to listen to the community and implement changes that will satisfy the *majority*.

Jason:

I consider it a bug because all built-in themes on the device automatically adjust the font size/style to the preferences in system options. Whenever you activate any Plazmic theme then the font always locks down to exactly what the author specifies. I've had other authors of themes state that the theme design environment does not offer an option to allow user specified fonts to work in their custom themes like the built-in vendor themes.

I am in software development, and that's either a bug or a major oversight in performance of the product. I guess you can't complain a whole lot with the price you paid, but it puts us visually impaired folk in a serious pickle.

Would be nice to see you come out with a ICON version, that's were there isn't a mini menu but instead the main menu appears when the phone turns on.

Would appreciate the testers letting me know if they find any bugs or have suggestions!

Man you guys keep me interested in the Blackberry. Please make it for the Pearl and the theme where you can minimize the icons to the side.....forgot the name.

Jason-

Is there any way to get the WiFi logo pushed over to the left so that it doesn't overlap with the EDGE display for us 8320 users? Other than that the theme looks perfect to me, and I was really missing the Vodaphone theme on the 8700 I had previously. Keep up the good work!

You downloaded the wrong version for the OS that you have. Check your OS version (Settings -> About) and download the proper version for your OS.

Also, delete the theme in there under Applications. It won't work like that so there's no need to have it.

yup, you're right, would help if I could read I downloaded 4.2.2 not 4.2.1. Question, what is the license type picture with the N in the upper right corner and can it be changed? Thanks, it's a beautiful theme.

Edit: Got it, it is the profile, not sure I understand the choice of the icon, but now I understand it

Edit 2: Wow, this is by far the cleanest theme I have seen, and I have downloaded quite a few, let alone paying for quite a few that were quit disappointing. Thanks.

I like the theme! The colors and everything I think are perfect! One thing this theme needs!

To be able to lock the phone without going to the applications menu!

Question Date Format Problem - 11-25-2007, 11:25 PM

Hi there, I just noticed this morning that the date doesn't display November 26, but rather November 2. At first I thought it was the Bluetooth icon cutting it off so I turned the BT off so the icon went away, but it is still incorrect. Can anyone else verify if they see both digits for the day or just one? Thanks.

Edit: I am using the today theme with the Messages, SMS and MMS, and Calendar line items.

On my 8800, if I press the k key it locks the handheld, have you tried that?

I downloaded it on my BB 8310 and it's working great.

A great theme I have every seen.

Is it available in Zen style?

Default Titanium theme issue... - 11-28-2007, 07:53 AM

Still love the theme Jason.... i'm using the original one u issued with no issue...

however, can u explain what settings would cause this screen cut off in Viigo at the top right... it is definitely the theme, as if i change to any other theme, then the view is perfectly centered -

I believe this is related directly to the width of the font. It seems that text display fields on a BlackBerry will change in size to accomodate a larger font's height, but not the width.

Nonetheless, this is a gorgeous theme. Sadly, though, my BlackBerry is shot, so I won't have much chance to play around with it anyways. ;_;


Just when everyday seemed to greet me with a smile, sunspots have faded, and now I'm doing time.

Great theme. I would be willing to pay for a Icon theme (no today page) as I use Pocketday.

Hi, this is the most useful theme I have seen yet! Thanks for all your work. I am putting in my vote for the "charging notification" to be put in so that one knows when it is plugged in.

I like the smaller fonts but is there a way to get the calendar and messages to display more of the description before the ". . ." as so much more could fit in on the today screen and still maintain the clean look.

I thought there was something wrong with my phone, took it to verizon store and the tech said I should get a new phone, since it is still under 30 day return period..
Hmm I have this big scratch on the screen.. Maybe I'll get a new one

By far the best Today theme I have ever used and it is on my device now.... I think it is clean and looks sharp.
The best part is you made options for people to choose from for the items on the today screen. That is the biggest downfall if you ask me for the today themes that people make.
I personally like Calendar, Messages and SMS to be on it in some way plus anything else.... but those are must haves and you offered that!
Thanks a ton!

Thumbs up Titanium - Today Theme - 01-25-2008, 07:08 AM

Can you make one that supports the 8700c in the today theme? And is there anyway you can download this to your PC instead of OTA? Can anyone help me on this one?

Thanks - I really appreciate it!


Jeff
