Tired of others dictating to you what your BlackBerry screens, icons, sounds and so on should be? Why not give the BlackBerry Theme Studio a whirl?
Since Research In Motion (RIM) introduced themes into its popular BlackBerry phones, you have been either stuck with the pre-loaded ones, a small selection of free ones you can download or paying for others you could find on some sites. You could some times change the home image, but it always took some research to figure out what size the image needed to be. All of this has now been simplified thanks to the new BlackBerry Theme Studio from RIM.
With this new application you can edit the following features of your phone:
- Home screen and backgrounds
- Icons and menus
- Animations and screen transitions
- Sound effects and ringtones
If you want to get real fancy, you can use programs like Adobe Photoshop or Paint Shop Pro to create more detailed graphics. If you don’t feel like doing everything yourself, you can also use the built-in templating system that will help you get along in the process.
While not an Earth shatteringly important announcement for the BlackBerry, it certainly is a welcome one for fans of the popular smartphones.
