Nokia N96 Theme Review – Fear

Name: Fear
Creator: Xavier
Summary: All my days and times are a bit hectic at the moment but hopefully it will be sorted out my the end of the week. Anyway I saw this a day ago and thought it was worth a post so here it is. Fear is the latest theme from Xavier for the nokia N96 and from the outside it looks like another stunning theme with custom icons. One feature which I don’t thing Xavier intended is that this is one of the best themes for dealing with high amounts of light some themes become completely illegible but this theme just soaks in the light making it easy to see any menu or option. Fear is a nice theme the background image is nice and in the dark look really interesting and even though there is custom icons most of them seem the same as the default but in the end is a nice theme.
Overview: I always look forward to what themes mite come out in the future this theme justifies waiting for a new theme because fear is well worth checking out. As all our themes this one is free and you can download the theme both with and without the icons from the link below. All thanks should go to Xavier for creating this great theme and I can’t wait to see whats coming next. Read more
Nokia N96 Theme Review – Insomnia

Name: Insomnia
Creator: Xavier
Summary: As it’s a Sunday my theme this week is Xavier‘s latest theme Insomnia. Simplicity is a key in good themes, too plain it becomes bland and too busy it becomes very messy and unclear. Insomnia had a great mix both plain and simple with quite vibrant colour. The icons are nice and add a lot to the colour to the whole feel of the theme. If I had a gun to my head the only thing I would complain about is the background when you are writing a text. Even that isn’t any real problem, Insomnia is an awesome theme and is really lively and makes your nokia N96 look like it has much more depth.
Overview: I know most of my themes are from the same creators and I was looking for another creator but then t came down to it the was just no better theme. As all of our themes Insomnia is free so its always worth a check and if you don’t like the icons then you can install that version which is in the downloaded folder. In the end of the day this is a really nice theme and one of the most flawless. Read more
Nokia N96 Theme Review – Mono

Name: Mono
Creator: PiZero
Summary: PiZero has been making Themes for a while now and is regarded as one of the best theme creators out there. Mono is one of his latest themes and first impressions are very good the white text on the blue background look very neat especially in text messages and menus. There are lots of little nice effects that come with this theme like the while line at the bottom and the landscape view are pretty good. There is one serious problem and that is the icons which indervidually look good but all of them are kind of identical making the whole display very very bland. You can install the default icons but the colours just don’t go that well.
Overview: PiZero is a big boy in theme creation but a some of his best themes have a price, mono is his latest free theme and I think that effected his effort because the way all the icons look makes me dislike this theme. On a side note I would like to add that PiZero released a very nice theme called Pulsar but that cost €4 but is worth checking out. Never the less this theme is nice and is a bit different form what you normally see and is worth a download. Read more
Nokia N96 Theme Review – Flow

Name: Flow
Creator: Xavier
Summary: This is my third theme from Xavier because at the moment there aren’t very many good themes coming around on the scene but Xavier has yet to make a bad theme. Flow is the latest from Xavier and it has all the characteristics of all the rest of his themes, simple, clean and elegant. Flow comes with all the icons from Xavier which generally a lot of people like his icons but there is a copy of this theme without the icons. I will admit that my font isn’t the best for this theme but I am sure some one Will find one that looks nicer. The party piece of this theme is how it can look when the screen is in landscape.
Overview: Its a really nice theme and as all of our themes its free so you can enjoy all you want. I do have a bit of a problem with this theme and that is the battery and signal bars don’t look that great they look more like fish bones instead of a bar. I would also like to tell you that one or twice I had a few problems with the landscape mode and if this happens to you try installing a different version of it. Read more
