New Mac OS X theme for N73

10 replies · 16,612 views · Started 25 August 2006

I have just finished work on a N73 theme based on Apple Mac OS X. It has taken me 3 weeks to get it to where it is now. It is to be tested on N80 and 6680 this weekend. You can see and get it here.

How many people have bought the theme mate?
I'm curious as to why you think people will pay for your theme when there are lots of mac osx themes out there?

Can you show me a osx theme like mine for the N73 and N80 with all the correct icons?

It takes a lot of time and effort to create the theme. There are more themes but none with all the true icons.

Imagine walking into a shop and saying to the sales person. Ere mate! There are loads of trainers for sale out there. Give me yours for nothing!

People have a very clear choice. Buy, or not to buy. If there are others like it, they will not have a need to buy it.

Regards.

I do know how long it takes to make a great theme and if you can make money out of it then good luck to ya,i just think the theme should be more original if i'm to pay for it.

Yes I know you have done a lot of good work. And fair coment. I kept it as original as there is a lot of people that like things kept authentic. You are more of an artist. I just wanted something to keep with my apple theme as I like that. I have only just set up my site and to date, I have only sold 23. dropped it to �1. But it is early days. It only costs me time so if it fails, then so be it. Thanks for the constructive comments and keep up your good work.

They are'nt my themes mate,the person,Dakku, who owns 4urmobilephone made those.I just mod the forum:tongue:

Anyway,good luck with your future themes mate

In looking at your post I couldn't find an actual link to your theme - would you please post it again, or could you send it to me at:

Did it work out for the S60 phones - I have the 6682 and am looking for an authentic OS X experience.

Thanks

here you go.

http://web.mac.com/the_reamer/iWeb/S60/Home.html I will have to convert it for the 6682 if you like. Let me know.

I would love to see this theme converted for use with the 6682. I would, without a doubt, happily purchase it.

And I agree with your earlier statements: this is the most authentic OS X theme I've seen.

The other links which were posted featured some very nice work, and free, but this theme and level of aesthetic cleanliness is what I was looking for.

Please let me know if you plan to go ahead with the conversion.

Thanks so much.
