Good friend and big contributor @SamgbxDesigns pointed out Velvet, the latest theme from pioneer developers Elecite. Damn, it’s just another reminder that RIM has some of the most talented designers behind their products.
Velvet looks delicious. It is however only compatible with OS 4.6 to 6.0. Specific devices can be found in the tags below or the theme itself in BlackBerry App World.
VELVET FEATURES:
° Fluid Performance
° 6 Categories
° 7-9 Customizable Icons
° 16 Quick-Access Photo Icons
° Social Icons
° Weather Slot
° Intuitive Navigation
° Modern Layout Design
Now that I don’t have direct access to themes on my BlackBerry, I think it’s a little obvious that I’m slumping into a depression about my love for RIM and everything I once paraded so hard for. HedoneDesign released Avio and I couldn’t just sit by without getting my hands into it, so I grabbed a friends Style 9670 and activated it!
Avio surprised me quite a bit! Immediately I was trying to slap the homescreen with my thumbs only to be reminded that I was using a BlackBerry 6.0 device. But that was the small complaint, and hardly the developer’s problem.
This is a piece of art, a deeper expressive design chalk full of custom made icons, svg, menus, fonts and more. It’s been a while since we’ve seen Hedone take this much time to create such a rich original theme.
BGD is back! But this time you can save your money for some Christmas shopping, because his latest Naturize: Winter Dream HD is absolutely FREE! Now that’s a theme price you can’t argue with. Coming from BerryGlowDesigns you know it’s going to be premium.
The new Winter Dream HD theme is compatible with Curve 8520, 8530, 8900, 9300 & 9330 series, Pearl 9100 & 9105 series, Storm 9500 series, Tour 9630 & Style 9670. Also Bold 9650, 9700, 9780, 9788 & Torch 9800.
The time has come when I cannot install a BlackBerry theme. With my 9650 sold and the 9930 missing the software, luck would have it that bbt Designs just finished up an all new full featured theme. POP is vibrant, fun and the kind of style RIM should have known was coming.
POP is compatible with BlackBerry 5.0 & 6.0 devices only. Curve 8900, 9300 & 9330 series, Storm 9500, 9520, 9530 & 9555 series, Tour 9630, Bold 9650, 9700, 9780, 9788 and Torch 9800 all waiting to be loved by you.
Features include:
* Weather Slot
* Hideable Today Area with up to 8 items
* Clickable Banner Items
* Over 20 Apps accessible via the Home screen
* Folders with pop up animations
* Hidden App accessible via Spacebar (first slot)
* Custom, vibrant icons
Good to Know (Slot order and folders):
- SPACEBAR will open the 1st icon on your App Page.
- Weather Slot opens the 2nd icon on your App Page.
- The Favorites folder will show the 3rd through 7th icon on your App Page.
- On OS5 *only* the top two “Social” icons correspond to the 8th and 9th icons on your App Page.
- The Favorites folder opens Applications folder on Non-Touch only.
- Folders will open corresponding folders on Non-Touch only (Favorites – Applications, Media – Media, IM – IM, Social – a custom folder named “Social”)
This is a theme you must purchase. Inotia is far more original and technology advanced than 99% of themes made for BlackBerry today. RIM should be using themes like this in their ad-campaigns. Do they really think they’re better off without Mobster Mobile Design or others in newer devices?!
Inotia is compatible with BlackBerry 5.0 & 6.0 devices only, running on Curve 8520, 8530, 8900, 8910, 8980, 9300 & 9330 series. Pearl 9100, 9105, Storm 9500, 9520, 9530 & 9550 series. Also Tour 9630, Bold 9650, 9700, 9780 & 9788 series. Style 9670 and Torch 9800 devices.
Another beautiful design built SamgbxDesigns. Combining simple, attractive and highly digible wallpapers Circulo takes another stab at the cool homescreen widget made popular by Android phones. But this time he’s slipped in a row of user defined icons as well, so everyone wins!
Circulo is compatible with BlackBerry 6 & 5 devices only. This includes Curve, Pearl, Storm, Bold, Style and Torch devices. Only appears 9000 is not compatible. If you have a 5-6.0 device the $2.99 asking price is quite generous for the quality.
After RIM axed an entire culture. Themes mean jobs- lot’s of them, independent artists working towards their next cash cow. Turning your BlackBerry into something beyond the hum-drum is what sets BlackBerry apart from iPhone & Android because it’s supported.. usually. BGT knows themes very well.
Desire is BerryGoodThemes latest build, and it’s going to be one of his best selling I have no doubt in my mind. Many of my all time favorite themes are built by Mr. Themes, he’s got a real knack for marrying simplicity and creativity.
A new product from the team at HedoneDesign titled Wave has just been released. Right after they released their first PlayBook app VCMS under i-Mentalist part of the Psycher Group.
Wave is compatible with Curve 8350i, 8520, 8530, 8900, 9300 & 9330 series. Storm 95xx series, Tour 9630, Bold 9650, 9700, 9780, 9788 and Torch 9800 OS 5.0 to 6.0
You know the name, Mobster Mobile Design has been steady building lately, despite the lack of Theme Studio software for OS 7.0 devices. For now we’ll just have to overlook that and set our sights on MMD’s awesome new theme TheGrid! Inspired by an OS by FusionGarage, this is one you can’t miss!
TheGrid theme is compatible with most devices running OS 5.0 & 6.0. Curve 8900 series, 9300 & 9330. Bold 9000, 9650, 9700, 9780 & 9788. Pearl 9100 & 9105. Storm 9500 series, Tour 9630, Style 9670 & Torch 9800.
DevCon, PlayBook OS 2.0, the BBX announcement.. wow! RIM’s been busy & so have I. But not too busy to throw our BlackBerry 5.0 & 6.0 users a treat. More Pootermobile pops one off with his latest theme, Flo!
Flo is available on plenty of devices. Curve 8520, 8530, 8900, 9300 & 9330 series. Bold 9000, 9650, 9700, 9780 & 9788 series. Pearl 9100, 9105, Storm 9500 series, Tour 9630, Style 9670 & Torch 9800.
It’s nice to see some Theme Builders are still working to keep their skills sharp, especially more hopefully with the possibility of Theme Studio 7 coming out soon. This time BerryGlowDesigns is back and he’s packing 2 color options: Pinque & Inque! Both unique.
I chose to show the Pinque image up top, only because it felt a little more striking immediately. The Inque color is far more my style however. These themes are compatible with many devices spanning OS 5.0 & 6.0 see post tags for complete list.
Forget the 10 copies. Forget every thing you know about having a theme on your BlackBerry. Few have reached this level of customization and VELOZ by Walker Themes is clearly a prestigious design loaded with function. It’s nice to see he’s still on his own.
Big name theme builders became who they are today by hiring a guy like Ring Walker to build their best products. We’ll you won’t see Walker doing someone else’s dirty work. He’s got his own game to run!
