Hello everybody.
I'm glad to introduce new theme for Maemo OS 2008 called "Titan".
I wanted to make something that looks solid, stylish, not very bright but not too radical (as the Star Trek ones :) ). So here it is.

And a little about my feelings about theming for maemo from the designers point of view (skip it if you're not interested :D )

First of all I want to say thanks to Urho Kontorri and his Theme Maker, although there are some bugs and not everything works properly, but even that way it's overwhelming theming software, that allows to create themes with flick of the wrist. It's just awesome.

Now about themes themself. They are very, VERY complex. On the one hand it's very good cause you can edit almost everithing as you like. But on the other it takes great ammount of time to build a full featured original theme.
And one more thing: with all that dosens of images and colors, included in the theme, combobox background is tied with default background. It's very frustrating and it slightly ruined my concepts. I don't think that it's cureable somehow but just for your interest.

Well, I hope you'll like it, if you don't - feel free to leave feedback in this theme, I'll see what I can do. Thanks for using and reading, good luck.

P.S.: Thanks to Andrew Olmsted for promoting it to Extras :)

I'm annoyed that you shared it on the Русский forums first :p

Eh... Can't you see them?

Re: [Announcement] Titan - new Maemo theme.
 

Heh, I know :), I also saw it yesterday too :). But I'm *****ing for no reason, I like the theme :D

Re: [Announcement] Titan - new Maemo theme.
 

That was for Tim actually :)
I've released this version simulatenously on both forums. Earlier it was a small alpha test, so nothing to lose :)

Thanks.. I have tried out .all of the apps I use and the reader, media, and all are just right as far as brightness and appearance. My favourite already. Thanks again.
