S60 to iPhone actually works...

Thanks to bery95 for spotting this surprisingly attractive/fun iPhone theme for S60 3rd Edition. I know, I know, I usually hate this sort of thing, but this one has iPhone icons in surprising depth and works well on many levels under S60 (240 by 320 pixel screens, at least).

Read on in the full article.

Sorry Steve, don't like this one. Looks really messy on my N95. My favorite (of the moment) is still the "Electronic Night" you found from I think the Samsung collection.

OMG No.

Unless the iPhone UI has changed radically, this isn't it.

It has some squarish icons but it looks more like some b@stardisation of skins from (certain) Mac OSX apps. The iPhone UI uses black backgrounds (which Jobsy said helps to maximise contrast for the icons), not the metallic theme from Safari, Mail etc.

Ugg. Removed it straight away.

Have to agree with the first two posters. This is pretty dire.

I'll stick with Pizero's Sand theme for now.

Unhappy plain/text problem

hi all,

Im trying to download this theme directly to my e90, but it keeps downloading it as a plain/text file and not an application file. The consequence of this is that I end up with a text page full of gobbldy goop and no theme. This has happened before with other apps and I was wonderong if anyone knows why...

I concur with the "lol no" opinion of the first posters. This is way ugly.

In response to the E90 user, it is likely that their webserver is not set up correctly. If it tells the E90 the file downloading is plain text.. the E90 must obey and assume its plain text. poor communicators only as stupid as IE & firefox though, its just a server misconfiguration

I kinda like it, thanks Steve but it doesn't quite work in my classic N95. Works fine of the 8GB version but the icons don't work on the classic.

Nonetheless, I'm using it on the 8GB and find it's quite cool.
