Whenever giving me a bug report, please specify which device and which theme variant. I don't see that problem on my Pearl with the Icon variant.
I have 3 variants each across 5 device sets (8700, 8100, 8300, 8800, and 8830), and two exports per variant (desktop and OTA), giving me potentially 30 sets of files to deal with every time I need to make an upgrade. So please give me as much info as possible so I don't have to do it very much

I tried the icon theme with my BlackBerry 8320, works great except when I create a folder and move applications into it they don't show up when I open the folder. I didn't have this issue with the Today theme.

Yeah, that's a known bug but I don't see any way to solve it. I'm thinking it must be a bug in the Plazmic theme creation software.

Great job MROGERS! Downloaded the 8300 Zen theme and the 8100 zen theme, look great. Few questions, as stated the symbol box is a bit off on the 8300, not sure on the 8100. Also, is there anyway to remove the grey box around the 'clocking' symbol? If you don't know what I'm referring to, the rainbow, swirly icon when loading things.
Again great job though!

It's the 8300 Zen where the symbol box is messed up? Thanks, I didn't know what version it was. I'll look into it for the next update.
As for the beachball...the spinning cursor is a GIF, and GIF images can’t do partial transparency — either a pixel is transparent, or it’s not. This causes a problem with the beachball because it has a drop shadow, and without the box it looks horribly block against whatever windows or menus you have open.

Just FYI, I have the same issue on the 8830 with the Icon theme...not a real big deal though.

Sorry to jump away from the technical talk with the thread but I do have to say mrogers this theme is awesome. Ive had it on my pearl for about 2 weeks now and have had at least 10 people say "whoa when did you get an iPhone?" My brother even went as far as trying to push the icons with his finger knowing he was holding a blackberry. Again great job on the theme!

Gee, it's the 8830 Zen.
But if you want to know the truth, all your 88xx/83xx versions should have this bug. If it's visible in one version it's visible in all versions... from past experience with other themes across the 88xx/83xx export line.

OK thanks. I'll see if I get it in the simulators; I don't have any real devices other than a Pearl to test these on, and (annoyingly) the simulators seem to get close but not totally accurate with their rendering.
EDIT: And to clarify, I know that if it happens in one 8xxx version it will most likely happen in all of them, but I still want to know what handheld and theme variant someone was using when they experienced the bug...my point about all the files was that any time I make a change there's a lot of exporting and zipping and uploading that has to be done so I just want to minimize that as much as possible.

Impossible to install on 8310
I wasn't able to install it Desktop and download OTA on my curve 8310.
Desktop says "No additional applications designed for your device were found", while OTA download error message is "907 COD error".
Any clue?
Thanks

Another person has reported not being able to install on their 8310. I'm afraid I have no solution at the moment; the software only allows me one option with the Curve series, and that's 4.2.2 export for the 8300. Does anyone else have any ideas what's up here? JustBerry, what's your exact OS version?

Can someone please answer my question? Is there any way to change the fonts in this theme? I like it, I just want to change the fonts. They are too small, and I want them to be bold.

Your answer was just above you. You only had to look up:

As I've already said, this is a limitation with the Plazmic software. Any element that can be affected by the theme creation software (buttons, menus, lists, etc) cannot be changed once it is on the device. This has been a limitation of the software from the very beginning, over a year ago, and unfortunately it appears they have not changed it. There's people like you (and me) who would prefer a smaller font, and there's other people who complain to me that it's not large enough for their tired eyes. I've found that what I have it set at (14 to 16pt in most places) is the size at which I get the least complaints; it seems to be the most agreeable to the greatest number of people.
