Does this theme work with OS6? I was hesitating downloading the new OS leak cuz I was afraid of losing section8, which I've been using for a long while. Sure enough it's gone from my themes list. Before I try to download it again does anyone know if it works? If not, any recommnedations for a similar 9700 theme for OS6, specifically with the utility of all the clickable icons (e.g. battery meter=options, signal meter = wifi setup, etc.) I like OS6, but I miss section8 already.

Doesn't look like it matters as all the links are dead

In case someone else was wondering the same thing, it looks like there are no themes available for OS6 on the 9700 yet. If it wasn't for the new OS6 browser I'd probably switch back to OS5 so I could use section8 again. Hopefully once OS6 becomes official for the 9700 we can get some themes as useful as section8 on there.

UPDATE:
Ok, this one is just about done. I finally got hidden today to function as I'd like. Put your calendar and messages in the first two spaces for navigation to the today area. I plan on updating the today version over the next couple of days, but the others are pretty much done unless I screwed something up. I plan to give the today area a shaded background when it displays so with bright wallpapers the text is still readable. I really appreciate everyone's support and input. It helped me make this theme a lot better than I would have originally. Thanks guys.
-8 icons on the bottom row.
-3 user customizable buttons along the top.
-Clicking on the battery opens up Options.
-Clicking on the time opens the Clock.
-Clicking on the network opens Manage Connections.
-Clicking on the signal meter opens WiFi Setup.
-*NEW* Click on the date to open Calendar. On today themes this opens Memo.
-*NEW* Click on the network name (top right) to open Browser.
-*NEW* Press space bar for QuicklLaunch
-*NEW* Press $ for SMS/MMS (did I get that one right?)
I didn't mention it earlier but my inspiration for this theme came from RedZapper's 3G 9700 theme. It's a great theme and it inspired me to make my own theme that has more buttons along the top. Credit for the banner style goes to him.
This is a work in progress but I'm taking a break for a bit so I'll call this one done for now. It feels complete but I'm definitely open to suggestions. Any feedback is welcome too, positive or negative.
Composer is awesome. It's like theme builder on steroids.
Programs used were theme builder, composer and photoshop cs3.
Thanks guys!
Big thanks to iBlizz for setting me up with the hosting space.
Big thanks to jOhnnyRingo for ota hosting as well.
Is it possible to do a version of this theme with the notification area being where the carrier info is? I'm with Verizon and don't get carrier info. The theme looks a little odd with that blank space in the banner. TIA!

I just upgraded to OS6 and seriously debating about downgrading back down to OS5 all because I miss this theme so much. Would love to see this ported to OS6.
