A while ago when I wanted to buy a Nokia 770, I came here and posted asking some questions. And since I do have graphic design skills, I figured that since you helped me, I should give something back to the community.

Also, I don't like the default theme.
  • This is just a pre-release, there's lots of missing bits here and there.
  • Site works on Nokia 770.
  • It's based on the LCARS theme from http://synthesize.us which is a great theme
  • It changes the status bar icons since ThemeMaker 0.90 supports it (yay!)
  • It looks neat

It's called Applenvy because I like Apple's interface design, and I wish I could get a team from Apple to work on my Nokia 770 .. but in the meantime, I wanted an Apple-like theme.

I know there have been previous Apple themes, but this Apple theme aims to capture the design phase that Apple is currently beginning. Smooth metal, sunken elements and grey-blue colors like those featured in iTunes 7.

I may make a theme closer to the iPhone's theme if I deem it possible (iPhone uses a lot of transparent glossy black)

I heard from Ian Ryge (dev of LCARS theme) that OS 2007 isn't too much different from OS 2006. But I don't have enough dough to buy a N800, so there's no OS 2007 support planned. But it's released under the GPLv2, so someone can play with it and get it to work.


One more thing ... there's a big element missing in my theme: scroll bar arrows. Yes, that's right. There's no arrows at either end of the scroll bars. I don't personally use them, and I prefer to scroll my dragging the scroll bars instead of constantly tapping a small arrow to get somewhere. So they will actually work .. but they have no visual representation.

Anyways, enjoy. Contact info at the website for suggestions/questions.
