Isnt there anyone outhere, who is capable of creating goodlooking themes for bussiness people?
I'm looking for simple (non-3d) and clean (no pictures of naked women and other childish stuff) themes.

Themes with just one (maybe two) colours, just clean and simple.
Its for my business phone, and im sure there are many others like me who like their phones clean and simple.

Please, if you know a place where i can download 'em.. or maybe you can create one, let me know.
I cant create themes myself.. I'm a mac user, and as far as I know of, there is no theme editor for mac.

Thanks,
Gier

There is one thats called "Sketch"
Its pretty amazing if u ask me... im using it right now on my 7610!

It makes your whole phone feel like its been sketched with a pencil!
The from the battery bar to the icons, its black and white... looks and feels beautiful! 😉

hi,

i had the same problem as you...
try the following themes:
1. crystallised
2. frost
3. default 6630 (probably the best for you)
4. brushed_mac

these are the cleanest i've found...
with regards,
toby

If you want a custom theme made from your own ideas, pm me. I'll do one for you the way you want it. Or try http://mangothemes.com Paysite but really outstanding themes.

Hi!...

To me the best themes are on www.MangoThemes.com ... of course they are not free themes... but really worth the cost becuase are really USABLE themes... not that kind of theme that you like it but you remove next day ... MangoThemes are really usable and carefully made it to the finest detail...

Or if you don�t wanna pay for quality... you can get some good ones on this link...

http://www.zedge.no/?side=themes&type=3&search=&pid=130&cat=0&sortby=5&finn=Find

that link it�s in a Most Popular First sort ... and may be the first pages has the best free themes available on internet by now ... many styles ...

my direct recomendations 😉 for good themes there are:

Go to MangoThemes if you don�t find the right ones 😉 ... you can buy it by paypal and recieved directly to your phone ...

Cya!

I had the same prob and created this one in Theme Studio. Graduated Blue. They don't get much plainer than that! I've also fixed the analogue clock.

their are 4 very nice plain themes on Nokias website in the 6680 section

davidlove 15 Jul 2005, 19:19

IMHO Nokia's four alternative 6680 themes are anything but plain.

Just like 99% of the other home grown themes out there, they make your calendar entries almost unreadable when Active Standby is turned on.

Less is more!

Must be this 'active menu' you guys have as they are fine and totally readable on the 6630 which doesnt have 'active menu'.

go to www.symbianthemes.com
->section themes
->preinstalled default items

theme 1 to 4 are very clean and very "professional".
these are the four 6680 themes from the nokia website cyberkid mentioned before.
here you can take a look at them.

i prefer and use theme 2. it looks fantatisc.

Could you 'tweak' the wallpaper to work with the Orange main screen?

Thanks

Thanks will do.

I'm running the OSX theme now and it is awesome! Transforms the appearance of the phone completely!

The problem is that the Orange 6680 has it's own main screen which uses a different size wallpaper.

See http://www.allaboutsymbian.com/forum//forum/thread/39102/

Thanks

The OSX theme is very nice, clean tiday and looks good with consistent colouring. I like it a lot. Excellent stuff.

I will do - can anybody reccomend a screen shot app?

Something that would be a great help is the default wallpaper built into the theme as a jpg.

This thread describes the issue http://www.allaboutsymbian.com/forum//forum/thread/39102/ The problem I have is that in the phone app the Orange software resets the theme wallpaper to user defined everytime I restart.

Most annoying.

Thanks

David
