Simple theme v1.00 beta

Hi all,

I just got my first smartphone about a week ago, a 6670, and like it a lot. Since then I've been lurking around this forum and finally got around to making this my first post here... so hello 😊

I've been working on a theme for the 6670 this weekend, and just want to share it if anyone's interrested. It's still in beta though, as you can see on the third of the screenshots below:

- I've been trying to figure how to fix the wait-bar all evening, but have run out of ideas for a solution. I'm using the current version of Nokia Theme Studio. Any of you guys who can help a newbie out?

As for the theme in general:
The idea was to make a simple, minimalistic theme (very much based on the standard theme in Theme Studio) - thus the name "Simple". Greyish/silver and white. There's no changes to ringtones and icons since I personally don't like my ringtone changed and I like the standard icons anyway... 😊
Both analog and digital clock has gotten a new look though.
It's recommended to edit the theme after installation, change the palette to 'Grey' - this palette goes well with this theme.
- Anyone know if it's possible to apply such a palette change automatically with installation of a theme...? And if so, how can it be done...?

The wait-bars won't work in the older models at the moment. They do work in the 6630. But Nokia knows about this and is working on it.

You can change the default palette of an theme in the theme studio. In the editing screen, go to the toolbox, click on colour and then on palette in the lower left corner. There you can choose the default palette for your theme.

Ahh... that explains it. Well, I guess we'll have to wait for a fix.
