Skinning up Symbian

6 replies · 2,013 views · Started 17 October 2002

Am I the only one who'd be intrested in putting skins over the Regular Nokia O/S?

As somebody suggested a couple of days ago, a MAC O/S X theme would be really nice. Even better if it were functional. (IE: Being able to move the clock, and have a... dock(?) at the bottom of the screen. Excellent!)

I had a look, but i'm note quite sure how's it's related? They plan produce software for symbian products, but look to be aiming for the next generation of handsets rather than the 7650. Not sure what exactly they plan to produce, their brief is so loose it could be anything really. Thanks anyway. 😃

Hell yeah im a graphic designer, you hook me up with the means to edit it, and ill skin it to high hieadas. 😊

😃 Graphic design... wow. Something i'd love to do.

Hey mate just give it a go
go grab yourself a paint program like Jasc Paint Shop Pro
and just mess around with it, get use to it
then put it to use, you really need projects to work on, Once you set yourself on a project, even if its just a theme for a pc or a wallpaper etc, you just keep using the paint pogram till you have made the perfect theme/wallpaper etc

and what do you have?
in the end youve created your own piece of art, and youve learnt to use a fair whack of the stuff in paintshop, etc and you just go from there.
Well thats how I sorta got started anyway.

Hope you have te same success if you give it a try.
