If you used the Plazmic theme creator, do an export of your theme. Then you can loaded with the desktop manager.

I loaded a smiley theme posted out here on my 7100i. Since then I have noticed some of my menus are missing options. When you goto reply to email there is no send option etc... Anyone have suggestions?

Switch themes and see if the option comes back? if it does i would consider removing the theme and not use it. There are several smile themes in this thread which one was it?

paulbblc · 03-14-2006, 07:49 PM

anyone have any St. Paddy's Day themes they would like to share?

pan1k · 03-14-2006, 09:31 PM

How about a guinness theme?

paulbblc · 03-14-2006, 10:51 PM

I like the way you think pan1k

gwilliam006 · 03-14-2006, 11:34 PM

ok, i used the plazmic theme builder to create it. do i export it to .alx or .jad ? i tried using the app loader in the desktop sfotware to load it and it wouldnt allow me to activate it in my "themes" option

KonTiki · 03-14-2006, 11:43 PM

alx is for desktop loading, while .jad is for Over The Air. Remember that you have to also load the plazmic theme reader file along with it for it to work and of course you need to be running OS 4.1

Y'all really are unbelievable with the work that's being done. I am very appreciative. I just have one request though. Is it possible for someone to do a University of North Carolina theme for 7100? Thanks again for all the work that's been done and y'all continue to do.

which theme will not load?
Did you also load the theme_reader.alx file?
Does you phone use os4.1 or higher?

Ahh never mind i went back a few pages and see the theme you are loading is for the 7100 and you have a different model phone. Delete that theme it will not work.
My error i assumed you wanted it for the 7100.

DaveMode · 03-16-2006, 09:19 AM

For those of you asking for your own theme, I would highly reccommend just using the theme builder and giving it a go yourself. I'm far from a photoshop expert but I was able to make one fairly easily. I started by downloading the .thm file from mrogers' excellent highway theme and customising from there. I added the Windows Vista/Longhorn grass wallpaper, changed the messanges icon to an Outlook one, the browser icon to a firefox one, the phone icon to a Motorola Razr one, etc... This is what it currently looks like for me on my 7520:

Glad to hear it man!!! That really makes it worth while for me! Keep an eye out for more.

ndub33 · 03-16-2006, 03:52 PM

Finally overcame my fear and downloaded the Plazmic Theme Builder. What a gas! A couple of really remedial questiosn fro the Theme-building gurus that post here:

1. Im working strictly with 72XX series currently, as I have a 7290. Did not see where in the Theme Builder I can go to change the color of the buttons or the message highlight bar. I am likely overlooking something obvious here, would love some direction.
2. Is there an online repository of icons that I can (legally) access to use in the Theme Builder?

you are all an inspiration!

Oh, Im sorry for the confusion... Can you make one like that but for the 7290 ? Thanks

Ok, got most of my previous questions figured out ( when in doubt, read directions 8)). However I still cannot figure out how to change the color of the highlight bar in the messages and address book screens. Any thoughts?

Hook'emHorns · 03-16-2006, 08:29 PM

I've been following this forum for quite some time, has anyone posted a John Deere theme? If they have I missed it.

Under The Controls (where you change Dialogs, Buttons and such) it's the List Cursor Color block.

Hope this helps.

Would you mind sharing that theme? It would match my desktop pretty nicely. Thanks in advance

will these themes work on a 8700c?

No the themes for the 7100 will NOT work on your 8700. The good news is there are several other themes in this thread made for the 8700. Another option would be to have someone make an 8700 theme like one of the 7100's posted that's no hard to do.

hope this helps?

ndub33 · 03-17-2006, 11:27 AM

Got it figured out. Thanks!

ndub33 · 03-17-2006, 12:57 PM

Does anyone have some really unique icon sets fro the 72XX series that they would be willing to share? Thanks in advance.

DesertDog · 01:12 PM

Does the Noia stuff count? I can zip up the icons I used for the ones I poseted if you like. I have them in PNG format with both states in each image so I turn visibilit on/off for the state I'm importing at that time.

I could also send you the theme source for the 7200 Noia theme I built http://www.blackberryforums.com/show...postcount=1168

KonTiki · 03-17-2006, 01:12 PM

I think that someone that has all these icons should start a thread dedicated strictly to icons so that people can download what they want and need.

Would love access to the Noia icons, DesertDog-thanks for sharing! Agree with KonTiki, icons could merit a seperate thread. I have no idea how to start a new thread, can our talented and personable Mods assist with this?

I put one up (anyone can):
Look here for Icons etc

If it grows and is good enough maybe it will become a "Sticky"
