Rate it up fellas!
Now, onto news...
I am planning on creating two versions on release...
4.7 and 5.0 versions.
- The 4.7 versions will be the complete and total product not limited by the things you CANT do right now to make a theme "5.0 compatible".
- The 5.0 version will be the version that works with 5.0 but might not have all full features set up in order to prevent the white bar issue...
- However, once plazmic is updated to be 5.0 compatible, I will update the 5.0 version to have all the features of 4.7, and those who have purchased 5.0 version will be automatically notified of an update and where to download the new version.
(BTW: When I say "dummed down" and "lack of features" for 5.0, its mainly background images for app screen or possibly lock screen etc, I am experimenting on what causes the themes to break in 5.0, but so far it seems to be certain font changes or image changes to backgrounds...so a full list of "features missing" in 5.0 will be listed and shown in screenshots...)
The benefits:
- Those on 4.7 OS's will be able to get the product as usual
- The 5.0 OS's users will be able to get a "dummed down" version and enjoy MOST of the features of the theme, and when an update is available for Plazmic, they will be able to get the "full" version.
- Also, 5.0 users who know a "white bars" fix can download the 4.7 version and do the fix themselves if they want..
So ya, hopefully this is a tiny bright light to those who were nervous before.Last edited by kdjayo; 11-04-09 at 02:55 AM.

- What up KD?, ok, two things, I've been hearing a few different things about Plazmic. One thing was what you said about a 5.0 release, and the other that I've heard most recently was the RIM was planning on releasing another OS update in order to fix themes for users. We can never tell what's going to happen and what won't, but I guess it's good to know that eventually something will.11-04-09 06:31 AM

Yes, I posted above your post about a 5.0 version that will not have all the "features" of 4.7 and u can read exactly what I mean by that above, and when there is a full 5.0 compatible 5.0 OS or 5.0 plazmic, I will update the 5.0 version to "full", again all the details are above.
11-04-09 01:27 PM - Voted. I forgot.Ah nothing much, just waiting for u to vote the thread 5 stars :P
