This theme, as you can see on your phone, has black background menus, it is not the case.

Flickering menus usually results from the use of transparent menus in a theme, not from the incorporation of an animated background.

I forgot to say that I’m using the 4.5.0.63 os which seems to be stable in my opinion.

I’ve just noticed a flaw in this theme style that comes from now on, the animated: I was using Opera and saw tghat the menus were flickering so much that I couldn’t tell what it said. The problem persisted even after uninstalling and reinstalling Opera. It took me a couple of days to realize that it has to be because of the theme. Now, after I changed the theme with a static one, everything is fine.

adi it is more involved than that, you cannot just use another animated gif file. Other files need to be made in composer and put into the theme via the theme builder software.

Question:what is the home background animation? Is it a gif or something, I mean, is it replaceable whith another animation file? I tried with a gif but it doesn’t work, maybe it should be a special size or type.

@ automan69

I wasn’t informed of that issue by my 81XX tester. I will fix it and post up a new OTA download. Check the thread at PMB
Ii will edit it to note the fix.
I apoligize for that problem, I do try to get my testers to check that.

Hi this is an awesome theme just downloaded it, the rippling water is cool but one thing is beside the clock only half the PM an am is showing.

Thank you for reviewing my theme. As Steve said, I was limited in my choice of fonts.

Thanks again for checking out my theme, I appreciate the kind words.

Thanks for pointing out the font issue with 4.6 Themebuilder, Steve. I wasn’t aware of that. I’ve been in the advertising/graphic design industry for awhile so I do tend to look at fonts a lot :0)

Regarding the “simpleness” of the theme…under the Beta 4.6 Themebuilder, all the “pretty” fonts cannot be used. Our hands are tied as to the font selection.

This is a Great theme overall.
