Can someone please help me test it on phone? --> http://gallery.mobile9.com/f/255016/

Somebody help:
I tested out my 'simply black' on a 3250, the colour is really bad, I saved it as 16 bit because 3250 is 18 bit.. :unsure: So I am thinking if I make a 24 bit sis for that phone(18 bit) will it work?? :wacko:

no pain no gain hehehehheheh

good work though, u got the basics

as for the 'simply dark' theme, plz supply the theme file so that we could help u out.

as for the the 'furious dragon', I'm gonna test it out and give ya my comments.From the preview u posted, the theme looks good, but I would prefer if u could lower the dragon face so that the active standby icons won't block the furious face of the mighty dragon ;)

good work all over & nice color coordination

@zjanahi

:wow: Thank You so much! :wub:

This is the link to download simply black:

The resolution is so small so I have some doubts on the appearance on your phone..

By the way, those blue icons are default icons, how do I make a preview of the theme with default icons (like those that will appear on the phone)? I don't want them to be so blue-ish..

I have seen your work, they are very nice! How did you get it to display digital clock instead of the analogue one?
The preview I made is from printscreen from carbide itself.. any other programs to generate previews?
Woah so many questions!

Oh and I have totally no idea how to change those icons and clocks to my own (I only use the ones from examples) (learnt)

Once again thanks! :pray:

the answer to ur question is simple, just use a program called Screenshot & it works over s60v3 devices.this is the link to the program & its totally free
ScreenShot 2.0
after u take shots of the screen, transfer them 2 ur phone & u r done.
this way the phone icons will show in the preview & u can select whatever screen u want to appear in the preview.

well me myself I'm still a rookie in my initial steps, sometimes I borrow clocks from the examples in carbide, otherwise whatever clock I put there that I have won't work. same goes with the digital clock.I'm gonna try the icons & hit u back.

The bad thing here is, I don't own a nokia phone. I am using SE.. I can only tell my friends to test out the theme for me, I won't be able to use their phone to get screenshots :(

(IMG:http://img20.imageshack.us/img20/3936/screenshot00202ga5.jpg)

heh.. I made the navi pane transparent.. so the yellow bar is actually in my background picture itself.. if I don't make it transparent, it will take the background from application..

(IMG:http://img235.imageshack.us/img235/3913/screenshot00212uu8.jpg)

I didn't even notice there was an arrow there!

(IMG:http://img253.imageshack.us/img253/9682/screenshot0019ku7.jpg)

I can't seems to locate where to change the text colour of this in carbide..
===============================

Any idea how they generate this kinda preview?

Look at these:
http://gallery.mobile9.com/f/249984/
http://gallery.mobile9.com/f/251567/
http://gallery.mobile9.com/f/251571/


hmm Also, I will love to learn how to make animation on nokia phones too.. But first let me amend those errors you spotted! I will continue testing the icons :)

Thanks for taking the trouble to look through my theme, you are very nice! :rockon:

http://gallery.mobile9.com/f/251571/

there is a site that offers a tool for designing themes for almost all phones, its simple but it doesn't give a pro finish as Carbide does for example.
when u create themes using this website, it gives a preview similar to those in the links u provided

hmm Also, I will love to learn how to make animation on nokia phones too

as far as I know, the only way that u get animation to work over S60V3 devices is to use flash files (.swf), I hope that someone else explains this better

I will continue testing the icons smile.gif

Thanks for taking the trouble to look through my theme

anytime suga' & awaiting ur icons test results :D ;)

I tried putting in my own icons but the jagged edges of the icons I put in are so obvious... :unsure: I wonder if it will look smoother on phone..

[shoutout]

[jasnasto]

You're doing a really great job on Nokia themes lately... :good: ... just hope you won't stop making themes for SE... your cute bear is looking at me from my phone right now... :)
