I was going by the conversation in this thread where the legality of adapting someone else's work was discussed.

I have loads of themes and wallpapers for my n95, and even had them for the SE phones. I like my device to reflect things like the season and my mood. (I posted my Christmas screens somwhere). I don't honestly know the legal status of most of them.

If theme maker were less scary, I'd make a bear theme .

Kathy if you want bear theme send me some bears you want in it and I'll make it for you. Color Template would be nice to.

Oh thank you! If I supply a range of Bear photos would that do? I can get plenty. Give me a day or two to get the family to pose. I have a few - my cricket-playing bear, belly-dancing bear etc, but I'll get a load of them and you can pick what works.

As for colours - dark backgrounds seem to work best on n900, and bears would want warm friendly colours like reds, oranges and tans.



Edit: I've opened a directory for bear-pics here: http://www.revdkathy.co.uk/images/bears/ so there's a few to be looking at for now. I also wondered whether some clever person with a cut or clone tool could neaten up my beach pic so it would make a theme base?

(attaching in hope!)
