    Included is a psd I created to simplify the process of creating a theme on the z 10. Uses same technique as Z theme.
    Within the psd are three layers. Top, Center, and Bottom. They are pretty self explanatory. Place the images you would like to have incorporated in your "theme" accordingly. Save as .Jpg then set it as your BB background. Easy as that.

    Here is a link to a blank template, may be easier to get your ideas across with this. Still has each layer just simplified. Also added all the icons. Hope you enjoy. If you have any question I am frequently online.

    Thanks! Here is what my phone looks like now, I call it EyeSaver (I never noticed there was no choice for solid colours in the wallpaper setting) added a little Crackberry love in there for fun.

    I like how the solid black hides the transparent film around the apps icon.

    Oh, and this is what the lock screen looks like with the CB initials, magnify disappears and you just have the CB on the lock screen.

    On a side note, did you know you can't take a screenshot of the lock screen, even if you don't set a passcode.

    By the way, Pixelmator, and presumably GIMP users can also use this...

    Dude black background hurts your battery more. You should use a white one instead

    Doh, you are right. Black is only good on saving energy on CRT screens(LOL) and the new OLED screen if they ever come to commercial use.

    I guess I should change the name to EyeSaver

    Pixelmator is a Mac app that can read psds. It's actually pretty decent. GIMP is an open source photo editor that's pretty feature rich too. Both support layers.

    BTW thanks for the template!

    It won't make a difference either way as far as I can tell; the backlight is on no matter what.

    Oh thanks for the info; ill have to give GIMP a run through. Once again not a problem, figured if id use this others would as well.

    Now all we need is Blackberry to allow your lock screen image to be different from your homescreen image.

    Nice idea for the bottom, but I was afraid of doing the top because other then the battery icon, the other up top is dynamic and can change position or icons. Like the phone bar changing to a no connection icon or the wifi changing to lte/3g/etc.
