My problem with most iPhoney themes is that I find it very difficult to figure out what icon is what application. This commercial theme fixes this problem by putting the name of each app underneath the icon. I know [...]

John of JC Designs just emailed me to let me know about his latest creation, the Retro series of themes. The theme is available in today, zen, and icon formats for most of the recent devices.
The theme has some great clean lines if you like red. Personally I think he should come up with some [...]

This latest theme from Visto Themes has some nice and large icons and a really slick header bar. I am not the biggest fan of the bland background but that is easy to change. The large icons are a matter of choice. Personally I like the smaller ones but the larger ones are easier on [...]

Artistic-me.com released this theme a bit ago but I finally had a chance to try it out myself. She has been burned recently by others stealing her work and has decided to go premium with some of her themes so I thought I would show her some credit for a theme I find very [...]

The mastermind behind VistoThemes.com, Corey, has released a free theme that I really think looks quite nice. The theme has a definite rugged look which I like. The rounded boxes around the icons look nice but make it harder to differentiate between icons on the fly. The menu text is also white which causes some [...]

Corey at VistoThemes.com has released another hot new theme for practically all the BlackBerry versions out there. The theme is called H20 and is very similar to the BB Droid theme we mentioned a few weeks back. The theme is very nice and fixes one of the problems I had with the Droid theme. It [...]

Larry has promised that he will release versions for other [...]
