Hi there guys, i havent got a registered version of PhoneAgent for mac, so i can't actually create a theme. So instead, i've exported the theme as a folder with the images in it....

I was wondering if anyone could do me a big favour, and make it into an actual .thm file?

If you can, give me a shout. Cheers!

Mikami.

Does the folder include the xml file? If it does have you tried zipping up all the files and renaming the file *.thm?

Yeah, tried that mate. When i send it to my T630, it just says:

'cannot read file: delete?'

It's a really nice theme as well...used a few other peoples ideas of the Milk theme on OS X, and edited them a bit.

Aren't themes just tar archives? Just create the theme file using tar This message was posted from a T610

.thm files are indeed .tar files. But that wasn't the problem on this one

It's taken me SOME time mikami

as I couldn't get it to work on my phone either for the longest time

So here's what I've been doing so far........

First I simply created a newtheme file and imported your images. Sent it to my phone and no joy. It wouldn't work. I've been playing with colour settings till my eyes hurt... still could NOT get it to open on my phone.

So I deleted all images and loaded that to my phone. What do you know? It worked alright

Imported the images again and it wouldn't work.
So I figured perhaps it doesn't like only 5 out of 9 images? (can't see why but what the heck) So I added the other 4 images

and STILL it would not work.

Perhaps it doesn't like .gifs and .jpgs in one (although i've done this before..) so made them all .jpg.... still not working

Last attempt: I opened up every single image in my image editor and resaved them one by one. Then I replaced one image on the .thm file and loaded it again... no go till the very last one (murphy's law must regulate it's always the last image

) which was the desktop image. Somehow it now works. I think it must not have liked your desktop image although I have absolutely no idea why

So now I have 2 themes

Here's the one the closest to your proposition:

Milk2

and here's the one with more images

Milk for mikami

I'll email them both to you... hope they're alright
