Check Out Ace… A New BlackBerry Theme From Elecite.com

by Leave a Comment

Elecite.com has a new BlackBerry theme out that I’m toying around with on my BlackBerry Storm.  It is called Ace, and, I have to admit that it is pretty slick.

Ace has that app card (iTunes)  look and feel to it with 5-6 customizable icons at the top which you can access via the “custom” button as well as 4 (locked) quick access icons for your Profiles, Weather, Facebook and clock.  In addition, Ace has a dedicated weather Icon, 10-11 (locked) quick access app card icons and a Today style preview area so you don’t have to open your messages and calendar apps to see what’s inside.

Ace costs $6.99 and you see more screen shots of it over on Elecite.com

Really Cool BlackBerry Theme From Bplay…

by 5 Comments

Everyone is talking about this really cool new theme from Bplay called Crossbar that kind of “raises the bar” as far as BlackBerry themes go. Crossbar is an animated theme that, instead of scrolling the cursor from icon to icon, scrolls the first 7 applications and 3 Today icons across the screen.

The Theme is only $6.99, so, I decided to buy it and give it the once over. The way Crossbar scrolls icons is pretty cool. I’d be willing to bet that other theme developers will try this effect in their themes.
