Default Zen with Hidden Today

cozper · Thread Author #1 02-24-2009, 03:35 PM

If you're looking for a theme that is different and more functional than the default zen theme, without changing things too much, then check out the themes I've made (screen shots below). There are 8 variations of the theme, each with the hidden today feature enabled. For those that don't know, the "hidden today" feature allows you to display your calendar entries and unread emails and text messages on the home screen, but only after you "highlight" the calendar/messages/sms icon.

Some of the themes have completely transparent icons and banners, some don't.

Some of the themes have icons with text underneath, some don't.

One theme is meant for WeatherBug users, with a spot for the WeatherBug icon in the top banner with the text always displayed underneath it.

The themes aren't revolutionary, but they add some functionality to the default theme without changing anything else. Check out the screen shots below! Enjoy!

Donations appreciated, but certainly not required. The more donations I receive, the more willing I'll be to make alternative versions to meet everyone's needs.

UPDATE 8 - 3/18

I've updated all the themes using the final version of Plazmic. This should eliminate some of the issues, but others still remain. Most importantly, the final version of Plazmic eliminates the overlapping text problem that plagued a few of my themes. Other than that, I have not made any changes.

Enjoy the updated versions, and please report back with any problems.

I can Host the OTA!

This is the best one so far. The others seem to have changed the font just slightly, but being used to the default on the Storm I can notice straight away.

Nice job!

This is a great theme! Exactly what I needed. I was wondering if there was any possible way you could do it with just four icons on the bottom? Thanks. Keep up the good work.

WONDERFUL! If only we could get an OTA...

This is the best theme I have run across for a business person or professional that needs to take a quick look at their calendar. Soft touch the calendar and it shows 6 upcoming calendar events. Same with messages. This is awesome! Thanks. Please someone host it OTA so I can share it with some friends.

Nice theme. After a week of trying out other themes, I went back to this enhanced Default theme. Just feels right.

ClassaN0va · #12 02-24-2009, 07:01 PM

Agree at peekpoke. I missed feeling like I had a blackberry.

I'm a Storm noobee.

So please bear with me if I make a dumb request.

I thought about trying some MacOS theme, but why? This default Storm theme is clean and simple, which is what I prefer anyway.

A request. Is it possible to show the items in TASK when I highlight the Task icon or the Memopad?
