I just found another theme creation from MonkyBizIU sent to us by a reader. This latest is a iPhone knockoff theme in all Zen, Icon, & Today formats. The background is awesome in my opinion. The only problem I had was that the Today screen was really hard to read since the text was white [...]

NancyDrew released a theme a bit back that caught my eye but I completely forgot about it. The theme is based on Tiffany’s and comes in a today format with a Zen and Icon format for select devices. The theme has a really cool background and the icons are custom and fit the theme perfectly. [...]

Larry Farmer hooked us all up with a free theme that gives you the 9000 BlackBerry Bold series look without the device. It looks pretty damn cool with the background and all. I love the icons and the top bar fits in perfectly. Text is pretty good but I wish he would offer the theme [...]

We have mentioned a few themes by Geenyc before but he recently emailed me about one of his more interesting creations. This theme is completely based off scrabble and is quite fun to look at.
