I have a Verizon 8703e. Is it possible to change the background color of the basic theme. Currently it is blue and would like to change to white. Any ideas or thoughts? Thanks

Try this:

E-mail yourself a plain white image, size 320x240 pixels.
Open the attachment on the Blackberry and save it.
Set it as your home screen background.

Is there a way to move files to the BB with the USB cable vs the email option.

When I try this on my 8703e (Verizon) the email is intercepted and all I get is an email saying I should go to Verizon's picture service web site to view the image.

Thats weird. Try changing the theme and accessing the picture again.

I am sorry for the confusion. What I want to know is there anyway once I have chosen the email option to change the background color?

There is no picture to access. it is not included in the email. Actually the actual email never arrives. It is intercepted by Verizion and i just get a message saying "You've got a PIX or FLIX message. To See it, visit www.vzwpix.com"

Changing the theme did not cause the picture to show up in the picture list.

I much prefer the Verizon theme to the cluttered Zen theme...

I've never heard the zen theme described as 'cluttered'

No, you can't do that.
And I apologize for all of the other users who seem to have hijacked your thread.

your kidding right?

5 small icons on the right side exposing the whole screen = zen
rows of large icons scattered across the whole screen covering it all = any other BB theme

What's cluttered? The background & the indicators - I much prefer multiple icons on a plain background, and the signal/battery/volume indicators are not as minimalistic as the default theme.
Why would I be kidding? Heard of a 7 letter word called "opinion"?

Opinions are like a@@holes. Everyone has one, and they all stink.

I happen to prefer the 'Today' themes much more so than the Zen or 'classic' themes. I've been using Vodafone Today since the 72xx days.

And...your opinion is different...how exactly?
