Corina - very nice job. As you probably understand I won't be putting it on my TB for obvious reasons. Now, make a manly rockin' dark theme :)

I do have a question about themes though - I've found several themes that are in .apk and I just go to the "Skin" area and find them after I install the .apk.

Is there a difference between "skin" and "theme"? If it's the same, I like the idea of .apk - you know, as you get older like me, you like simplicity. Not saying you're older yet, because you're not, but you know the saying :)

A skin doesn't include any status bar icons and can be installed by anyone, rooted or not. There are about 1,700 images in a skin and around 17,000 in a complete theme which, as you know, can only be flashed if you're rooted.

Yesterday I told her we would apply your theme skin. But now you released your theme. Would she not gain any extra theme goodness by applying the skin as well?? Maybe that purplish sense dock for instance? So to be clear...The skin will give us nothing extra at this point???

Cakes I have a question........... to load the icon pack that you have would I put it on the sd card and use better cut or what. Really want to use them but am wondering how to apply them.

Yah bettercut works if you don't wanna use launcher pro. And yes, put them in your dcim folder. :D

Oh Gawd......I knew it. It was only a matter of time you were going to pinkafide this phone Corina. You just couldn't leave it as it was could you. Noooooooo she couldn't .I didn't even see this thread until now.

(HolyGrail runs...being chase by the puffy pink monsters, that Corina has unleashed into the world) :)
