Digging it. I always like themes that center the date and time. Makes the page balanced. Are you making any Today Plus ones?

I like it as well. I'm making a Bold/Precision inspired theme too (but with my own little twist to it), so it's interesting to see what others a coming up with, in regards to this theme concept.

Thanks for the props...
The TRUE Today Plus theme can only be done in Composer. I am not that familiar with it yet...but I am working on it..

So..your answer is no...not until I master composer...lol

My thoughts exactly! I would love to see this as a today plus theme. Hopefully slmoney can work that out. I like the theme. Clean looking and a big clock! Very nice.

Great looking theme.
Here are a few questions/suggestions.
Are the icons semi-tranparent?
I see you have an icon for the mike recorder, which is great. Do you have one for video recording?
Is there some color on the icons when selected in addition to the box?
Suggest you consider inversing the signal and battery icons. Personnally, I tend to be more interested in signal strength and left top corner is a more natural place (pretty much like ads placement in a magazine).

A version for Pearl, please?

the icons are not transparent at all.

I have an icon for video..but unfortunately there is no place to put it in the Theme builder. For som ereason applications like that act almost like 3rd party icons.

There is a slight white/blue hilite to the icons when selection...like they are lighting up.

And yes, I agree about the battery/signal meters. I was trying something different, and I find myself looking to the upper right for signal. I may switch those around.


When the theme is completed to my satisfaction, I will export as Dimenstion Icon, Zen, L, Today, Today with bottom dock and bottom dock. For OS 4.2, 4.3 and 4.5 (8700/8300/8800)

Suggestions for the elements for Today/Bottom dock would be appreciated.

Oh...and it will be FREE.
