I second all of these emotions......If I could have Foppa 19 for OS6, then the ONLY left for me to get over in going to OS6 is the lack of column view in the browser (and yes I have tried but don't really like Bolt).
Come on Foppa, come back for a few weeks and update your awesome themes!!!!!!!!!
Someone just now let me know about this thread. First of all, thanks for the support.
As you probably know, the OS6 Theme Builder is out. What you may not know is it's just a beta version. That said, I have started messing around with it, creating an OS6 theme for my wife. My plan in the coming days is to figure out how hard or easy it is to port my OS5 themes to OS6. This involves the custom SVG files as well as Theme Builder files. If it's relatively easy, I'll have some OS6 versions of my more popular themes out soon. If it's hard, it'll take a little more time.
Stay tuned. I'll put the updates out on Twitter and my site, as well as in new forum posts here on Crackberry.

For those anxiously awaiting OS6 ports of the Foppa Themes to start dropping, I can give you....er.......um........ 20 reasons to either go to Foppa's website:
Since Theme Builder 6 is still in beta, it's probably best I call this a beta as well. You will notice
a few quirky behaviors, such as bottom-banner icons being cut-off. I have no control over this,
so we can just hope it gets cleaned up in the official Theme Builder 6 release.
And don't forget -- send me your screen shots!
FOPPA20 for OS6 FEATURES:
This one is slightly different from the original (one hidden dock instead of two).
One hidden dock activated by clicking the up arrow in the bottom banner.
- Shows apps 1-6
- Escape key hides the dock
Four top banner application buttons:
- Time > Calendar
- Notifications > Messages
- Two user defined (apps 7 and 8)
Three built-in hot keys:
- Space bar launches QuickLaunch
- $ key launches SMS
- 0 (zero) key launches profiles
Transparent menus
OS6 screens, transitions and icons.
Large notifications area to hold all the stuff going in there nowadays.
This theme should work well on other OS6-based 480x360 devices.
Battery pull is recommended.
I'll put this on Crackberry in the next few days, until then it's an exclusive for those of you "in the know." Notes:
Version 6.1 updates:
THIS....is what will get me to go back and try OS6 again. I was waiting for Foppa's themes to start being ported over (holding out for 19). Now I just need to get past my intense desire for Column View.....
