All RJ Design Themes have been updated with Theme Studio 5.0. Now compatible and tested with (Storm1) 5.0.0.328 and (Storm2) 5.0.0.320
You should receive an email but if not please go to the CrackBerry.com App Store or the MobiHand App Store (BlackBerry App Store) and log into your account. You will see the upgraded themes there.
After every theme install please do the following steps. You only have to do this once for each theme installed. This is just a precaution that I like to do with my themes I install.
First: Do a Battery Pull. This is very important, as the new themes are much larger.
Second: Go to App screen on your phone press BB Logo button and select Options.
Now select Theme Defaults at the bottom of the screen and put check mark next to all four and select Apply then Yes.
If any problems should arise please post in appropriate Forum Thread or email me. I will try to get back to everyone as soon as possible.

".328 Work Around".
Yes Black Pearl is compatible with .328 but i have been getting a lot of emails about the white bar issue. I reply with "it is a problem with the operating system not the theme". I believe most custom themes are having this problem. I have included instructions to fix this, plus two links too good threads about this issue please read them first before sending emails about this issue. Also below you will find the wallpaper you will need to keep the theme looking as good as it was intended.
1. Change Wallpaper to wallpaper posted below.
2. App Screen > BB button
3. Options > Change layout to today > exit > save
4. BB button > Options > Change layout back to 2 row > exit > Save
Can't post right now. It is in the directory of free storm wallpapers under misc.
Should be on the first couple pages.
The papers I was thanking shayd for are posted in the Quadratic thread.

Thanks Speedy. Never real sure what people like on there home screen, for example QuickLaunch. I had it on my phone for a month before i figured out how handy it was. From then on i have been trying to incorporate QL in all my themes.
If you dont have it (QuickLaunch) i would recommend it to all.
I haven't looked for it but it would be real handy if someone posted a thread or poll of what most people like to see in a theme or home screen. I think that would be really good info for a lot of theme creators.
Speaking of next theme. Do you have anything cooking?
Yes i do have something in the frying pan "so to speak". I dont have any screens to post yet but i plan on posting something about it up by weeks end if all goes well with beta testing.
This theme will be a little different then the others. It will come with different options/varities to choose from. That is all i can say for now. Stay tuned.
ja: I got Earl Gray a few weeks ago and didn't think I'd ever switch themes, it was so slick. THEN I found Black Pearl and OMG, you outdid yourself. I have had a lot of people (including VZW reps) oogling it. Thanks for your hard work, and I can't wait to see what you come up with next! If you need another beta tester count me in.
I'm with you sparks, I have had a special place in my heart for his themes since Earl Grey. I'm itching for something new to add to my theme addiction. I was hoping to get a, I got somethin goin.
Can't wait.
