[6.5][SKN][TSK] JonNRb SimpleBlue Theme

jonnrb · Apr 20, 2009

I've seen quite a few people have been downloading this. If you have downloaded this or will download this, please comment!
Here's my latest greatest Windows Mobile 6.5 theme to grace the forums. It's called SimpleBlue because that's what it is: a simple blue theme. It has an "Ubuntued" background (it's just a gradient) so don't complain; that's how it's supposed to be and will not change. This theme complies with my own standards on how to build a 6.5 TSK so it will work on any device in existence! Let me know how it is...

Instructions:

1. Install it.
2. Go to Start -> Settings -> Today
3. Select SimpleBlue + <Your Device Resolution>. (WQVGA pick QVGA and WVGA pick VGA)
4. Click OK and enjoy it

UPDATE:
I added a Titanium theme to suit the Today theme.
To install:
1. Unzip and install the SimpleBlue Titanium.cab file on your device (all resolutions).
2. Go to Start -> Settings -> Today.
3. Go to Appearance and uncheck "Windows Default".
4. Hit OK.
5. Go to Start -> Settings -> Today.
6. Go to Appearance and check "Windows Default".
7. Hit OK.
8. Enjoy the theme!
To uninstall:
1. Install rp_thm_titanium_default_restore.cab
2. Go to Start -> Settings -> Today.
3. Go to Appearance and uncheck "Windows Default".
4. Hit OK.
5. Go to Start -> Settings -> Today.
6. Go to Appearance and check "Windows Default".
7. Hit OK.

Looks amazing, will download it and feedback

looks awesome!! thanks jonNRB. I realy like this shade of blue

the only part i have concern with and it was like this on the other blue theme you made, is the menu tabs on the bottom of the screen that have been rounded off, are (i think) being squared back off and causing like a double image. see screenshot where "Appearance" and "Items" is at.

Yeah I'm aware of that. There's not really much you can do to the tab images though and what I did makes them look as good as possible while still delivering a custom theme. But if you think that it's a concern, I'll look at it and hopefully change it. Thanks for your feedback!

I really don't know! Try it out and report back. Is there even a 6.5 ROM for Smartphones yet?

Just wanted to say - I like! I have been so busy trying all the themes and ROM's, and programs that A clean simple theme is usually the best, Thanks.

no worries, i just didnt know if it was because of the adjustments made to the pop menu borders that causes the tab borders to look that way. if its just you customizing, i would say, just leave them as is (rounded) because at least then it looks uniform and sized appropriately all around. just my two cents, ur theme though and its already cool enough

looks great, thanks

Very nice!!

I just can't stand that boring blackness in all the themes around. i light bright colors

If possible in the future. i like it to be even a little brighter at least the topbar part of it. other than that its great! nice stepup for 6.5. reminds me of a light wisbar advance

Well I tried to keep the topbar pretty dark because the text on the topbar is white so I wanted to improve the seeability (is that a word? lol). That's how a lot of my themes now and are going to be: they have features not immensely cool graphics. If you want one of those themes, go to one of rpereira's threads and you'll find what you're looking for
