Spice Up your Smartphone with These Hot Home Screens

[Mike Temporale]

The HTC S710 is showing up all over the place and a number of you have already purchased it. As well, there's a lot of new comers to the Smartphone scene - BlackJacks, and the Dash are still very popular. So for all of you that are new to the Smartphone arena or are just plain bored of the existing home screens that come on your device, check out some of the links below to download some of the best and free home screens on the 'net. If I've missed any sites, please reply and share them with us!

You seem to have forgotten the fact that the s710 is a dual-screenorientation device. Therefore none of these homescreens will fully work.

My s710 will arrive at the end of this week (hopefully) and I will try to put my first s710-theme up over the weekend.

I was told to get an HTC Vox back in January but things changed... :cry:

I didn't forget that, I just didn't mention it. ;) The problem is, as you are well aware, the Vox is the first Smartphone to have a screen orientation that changes. Seeing as it was just released there is little chance that ANY theme will fully work with the device.

This post was aimed at helping all the new Vox owners along with all the other new device owners, add some style to their Smartphone. 8)

Cool, I'll be watching for it! Even if I don't have the Vox, I'm sure it will look great on my BlackJack - just like all your other themes do. :mrgreen:

Again, nice work Prosper!

One sidenote - the screenshot is hard to view since the landscape shot is sideways. Could you just make a 320x320 gif or png with a transparent background, and then display each shot in it's proper orientation? Just a suggestion!

I thought about something like this, too.. But the border and the shadow of each screenshot is a seperator graphic, which is drawn under the main screenshot (Click (http://smartphone.krisdoff.net/data/screenshots/Multi-Orientation/_mask.gif)). That's why I decided not to take a 320x320 graphic and leave the unused space white. It would somehow look ugly I guess... :roll: Going to investigate in this.

I just purchased HTC S710 and used the themes. Thanks for such nice themes/home screens. :D

But I was wondering, can we change the background of the startMenu/programs screen? :?:

And how can we change the icons of the programs? :?:

I just bought a Dash and was looking for some themes when I found this site and Prosper's themes. The best I've seen so far Prosper! Cant wait for some more from you.

Anybody have any other good sites for themes?
