@adonis: nice choice of wallpaper! your desktop and your menu are slightly skewed. theres a handy guide out there (have to find it) called mo's tutorial, it may help you with your cuts. dont be discouraged and keep plugging away, the themers are here for each other, we'd be glad to help you out along the way.

@august - That's a great theme, and not just because of the pictures of women used.

So many good themes again this week. It's hard to choose just 3.

[simon211175]

couldn't help myself. I've made one last change to my theme. Really though, this IS my final theme. Finished. No more. Somebody end this week quickly.

I like the menu design. Not sure about the blue shadow on the text - I can only imagine it looks clearer on the actual phone?

I like the highlight bars, but what is it on the right of each bar?

[rogue_uk]

Good question... it's Lucy Liu's body in a stylised marketing image for Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle - so she's firing the flamethrower that makes the rest of the highlight...

Could really fit more of her in - really want to do ore with highlights, but am finding things rather limiting - have a few suggestions for Sony Ericsson's next generation of themes...

Yeah - I agree with you a bit on the shadows. May review that...

[simon211175]

not sure I remember Lucy Liu in the original series ;)

I think every themer has suggestions for SE on their next generation of themes - one thing I've noticed as weird is their own theme creator program centralises the softkey text - even though they aren't on the phone. Anyway, I'll shut up about that before someone slaps a :offtopic: at me :)

[rogue_uk]

Thought someone might mention that... I reckon the recent movies are in themselves "retro" and are homages to the 70s series, and therefore are fair game, so I feel fully justified... :angel:

And you are right about the text - it's much better if I reverse it - here's a new version...

[simon211175]

the text does look better now.

I think you might just get away with that homage to the 70s series theory. :good:

I would like TCP to support more than .jpg and .gif

I use alot of .png lately making my Xp themes

[simon211175]

can you not just convert the .png to .gif etc?
