    So after not being able to find a theme I liked enough to keep for more than a day i decided that I would get into trying to make my own. I own a graphics company so I thought it would be a smooth transition, lol. Its not as easy as it looks to make something that you would actually want on your device, lol.

    Anyway, my first theme takes on the look of simple, clean and sleek. The bottom dock is not customizable because those are the apps i use most and as you can see the bottom dock is animated with a little bounce and turns red when highlighted. Also I just put a random wallpaper on the theme that goes with it since most people use their own anyway. if there is enough demand for a user defined bottom dock, or a today style theme i could probably be talked into to making one. Also I haven't located an OTA hosting site yet so I just have the zip for now. Hope you enjoy it.

    Cheers

    Nice theme! I really like simple and haven't seen one I liked yet. Being new to BB I am still learning about all this and have only downloaded a few themes but ended up not liking them.

    Will the icons be customizable? Big factor for me.

    not the first version, i have to pretty much re-do the whole theme to make the home screen customizable. So it will take me a day or two to finish the fully customizable version

    If you could make it so that there were calendar entries on the homescreen above the dock, I'd def. download!

    so basically a today theme with a bottom dock?

    It has an outgoing call screen? I didn't even know that was possible? If you can a version that employs the feedback left so far, I will definitely use it.

    Am I mistaken or is there a working GPS program on the maps icon?

    Sounds great, the theme I have now has no outgoing call screen (I can't see what number I dialed if I use my speed dial) so I am really looking forward to your theme. Can't wait!

    This is my outgoing call screen now....
