All you budding theme creators now have a new challenge. Steve, the admin of Theme4BB, has put up a $250 bounty for the best theme. There are quite a few rules and restrictions to the contest but I think most are in the spirit of fair competition. This contest seems to be targeted towards the [...]

“Music” has released a cool free Leopard theme for BlackBerry devices a few days ago that I thought I would share with you. The theme comes in both a 8100 and 8300 flavor with no love for the 8800 series. The theme uses the slick Mac OSX icons and has the same spiffy background. People [...]

Cherrichiodo.com has released a pretty cool free Valentines Day theme called Be My Valentine. The theme has a snazzy purple background which only those of the female persuasion could truly love. Cherri has kindly offered OTA downloads on all of the themes on the site (Over 20+ from my last count). They are also available [...]

We have mentioned quite a few of Michael Small’s themes before on BerryReview but I recently had a chance to check out his website www.blackberrythemes.co.uk. His new design has all of the available themes shown with screenshots. There are over 100 themes on the site right now and all but 1 or 2 of them are free. [...]

After posting Rcbjr’s instructions on how to unlock vendor themes I promised to follow up with screenshots of the available vendor themes. The screenshots below are from an 8310 and show all of the themes available at this time. The themes for the 8800 are similar and the 8100 themes are more or less smaller [...]

I have to start off this post by saying that these instructions probably do not work for the 8130. With that said Rcbjr (AKA Richard ) has kindly allowed us to republish the great instructions he posted on PinStack.com on how to unlock vendor themes. Yes these are the same instructions we referenced before but [...]

Plazmic Theme Builder version 4.3 is still in beta and out of the hands of the general public. (Groan!) That has not stopped Jason Calhoun John Choong (Sorry to both parties for mixing up the name. I was misinformed) from pushing the envelope and releasing one of the hottest BlackBerry themes on GadgetBean.com using [...]

It has a nice minimalist feel and seems to be a play on the RIM logo in the background. The author focused on very striking fonts [...]

Right after I posted about Gary’s Cowboys theme I discovered that he has also released a free Chicago Blackhawks theme. I guess Gary has some loyalties (or friends) in Dallas and Chicago. Hopefully Gary is working his way through more teams as we speak.
The Chicago Blackhawks theme follows the same style as the Cowboys but [...]
