wow, just noticed this a short while ago. on Crackberry.com’s BlackBerry App Roundup for April 24th, my Zelda 8-bit theme got a mention. I thought that was pretty sweet. I had toyed around with the idea of making the theme for other models, but with all the stuff I have going on it went on the backburner. I didn’t know people actually wanted this so, I’ve decided to start on it soon. soon as in within a couple weeks, lots to get done before then. keep checking back and it will rear its 8-bit head one of these days.

Due to some requests I decided to make a Today+ version of the Tie Dye theme. I am also offering free personalization (unless you really wanna donate, always welcome) since it’s a summer-y theme and it’s coming up on summer. hit me up at crackberry or email if you would like anything changed (example: Today with messages only/calendar only, different fonts, etc.)

I got my bold yesterday, and have spent pretty much every waking moment since with my eyes glued to it, figuring it out. I’m very, very, very impressed with this thing. don’t get me wrong, I lurve my curve but DAMN. the OS is awesome, it’s fast, the screen is beautiful, it’s got more memory than my brain has installed… spec-wise and aesthetically it blows the curve out of the water, but the curve is still better than any other brand of phone out there. plus it looks more manly and stuff, since it’s bigger with bigger keys. so there’s that.

anyway, I’m gonna lay off trying to figure out how to make bold themes until I get tired of my wallpaper, then I’ll whip something up… until then I’m still gonna roll out some curve themes I’ve been working on lately, soon.

wow, I just love all these uses for the customized icons on my themes. for instance I’ve seen the fourth or fifth theme that’s used some of them (in particular, profiles icons) that I made specifically for certain themes, by hand … it’s not flattery, it’s moronic thievery. it’s one thing when someone asks me for icons, but photoshopping a screenshot and then using it on your own theme? come on. that’s pretty low. so, from now on, my themes will all be previewed in crappy low-res. I have no tolerance for asshole thieves, next time ask nicely and you might receive. well, maybe not now.

Alrighty, here’s my latest release (wow I sound like a movie producer or something, how lame), called Curve Chromed. it was supposed to be released last week, but I got sidetracked as I often do.

For: Blackberry 83xx os 4.5
Price: Free

Variations: 1 at the moment

well, just got off the phone with at&t and the csr was about to shit himself he was so excited. I took full advantage of the free Bold offer, it’s just too good to pass up. I was surprised they would even be open on a Sunday, much less on Easter. but hey, cool. I’m still gonna keep my curve on prepaid to buy games/apps with, cause my curve is gangsta.

like I said before, I’ll still make 83xx themes… but I’ll be focusing on 9000 ones. my plan is to port the 9000 themes to to the curve, once I figure out how.

edit, yeah ok…. apparently I’m getting it wednesday instead of tuesday. no biggie… one more day, one more day….

I decided to hop on the band wagon and make a Vista theme for BB, only better than the rest… face it, your Vista themes suck. anyway, here is a preview:
