I got an email last night from Peter about Elecite’s latest theme release Opus. In actuality I was a little surprised as this look tends to differ from the stuff Elecite usually puts out.

Brandy, from Artistic-Me’s latest release is called Impressions and the theme itself does seem to make a nice one, going by the screen shots. I was not able to test this theme myself but I have used some of Brandy’s themes before and I suspect this one works as impeccably well as the others. A [...]

Peter sent me this theme and at fast glance, I actually had to look again to make sure it came from Elecite. It just looked different than their usual style. However, it’s definitely a theme worth checking out. Bright green backgrounds, a huge time box in the middle. Customizable icons throughout the home screen. An [...]

Wow! I can’t believe it’s already been two whole years since we launched BerryReview back in 2007! Since then, the site has grown from just me, to a team family of over 10 editors, writers, and reviewers…all of whom do this for the pure love of it.

Luis (aka PooterMobile) over at PimpMyBerry sent me a few themes of his to have a look at but actually the one I felt was kind of interesting is called, Metal Slug. OK, once again I admit I am not much of a gaming freak but I like the character illustrations on the home screen [...]

I saw this theme by Rasta321 over at PimpMyBerry and though I am not that familiar with the classic Japanese animated film, but I know many who are and I have to admit that this is one nice looking theme. I really like the way the 7 scaling icons on the home page give the [...]
