love the black and white but all the icons on the top seems like it is in the wrong place. i suggest battery bar top left, signal bars top right, profile icon under signal bars, new text messages icon under or near battery bar.

I also love the black and white, but I don't like how the fonts don't match in the theme itself.

can you change the battery % to a battery bar? i think u should use bbalpha sans font for the menus? and also navigating the home screen, can you make it so that you can use all directions of the trackball? i like it how u can scroll up and down to move it but i also want to have the option of scrolling left and right . one last question, can you send me your icon set? i love the black/white icon set but i dont know how to make my own. do you know how to make it so that the icons jump up and down when you focus on the icon? exactly like the themeberry bold theme on themeberry.com.

i dont have bb alpha sans, i have bb sans serif?

i changed the battery bar as well as the direction of navigation.

for the icon set, i just used the storm icon set http://forums.crackberry.com/f16/sto...ownload-82407/

then using either Gimp or Photoshop, you just desaturate all the images to achieve the black and white look.

for the icons to bounce up and down, using plazmic you select Bounce under Icon Animation, I didnt put this on this theme because I wasnt sure how it would look with the icon overlay

edit: i attached the revised home screen banner in a separate image, let me know which font to use.

the only way i know how to do OTA requires that i host the .cod and .jad files together and I dont have anywhere to do this, so if someone hosts it for me i can provide both files

the date or the time doesn't seem like its centered? if u can find a profile button for the profile button on the banner, maybe just put the speaker layout as the button and lose the roundish square that is behind it? that button is kind of big lol maybe try to find a smaller one. i just think it doesn't flow as well because all the icons on the bottom are really sharp squares and the one on the top is roundish square and for some reason that profile button has little arrows on the top, bottom and sides??
