Featured SnowCover Pro theme: SnowSimple

March 12, 2010

SnowCover Pro is a great little commercial tweak that integrates gesture controls and skinnable album art displays right on your lockscreen. My current favourite theme is a new design by MacThemes user sahandii, titled SnowSimple. I’m using it with the Tenuitas Winterboard theme to great effect.
If you’ve never installed a SnowCover theme before, it’s dead [...]

March 8, 2010

[mouse over a picture to see the title, click to see a larger gallery]
Here is a Simple iPhone Wallpaper pack from a Thomas (not this one). I’d give you a last name for the designer, but all that the MadeByThomas website says is that the designs and graphics are, well, made by Thomas. The man [...]

New Glasklart Theme for PogoPlank – Very Nice

February 13, 2010

One of the many cool things about PogoPlank – the jailbreak app that lets me run my 160+ apps on just one home screen, and organize them with their ‘wheel of folders’ – is that you can apply themes to it.
I’ve always preferred themes that A) make the wheel hollow so that I can [...]

Featured iPhone Theme: Team Fortress 2 by Him Himself [iPhone Themes]

February 9, 2010

I used to be ridiculously into Valve’s class-based First Person Shooter, Team Fortress 2, but the game is getting on in years and I think it’s time to move on to something a little more fresh (Bad Company 2, if you must know – but please stop prying). But just because I’ve stopped playing the [...]

How To Make Your iPhone Look Like an iPad

February 3, 2010

I’ve never really understood the fascination some folks seem to have with making their one mobile device look very much like a completely different one – making a Windows Mobile phone look like an iPhone, or an iPhone look like a Blackberry or a Windows machine, and so on. So even though I’m already [...]

Featured iPhone Lockscreen: Swank Lock by fosho4 [iPhone Themes]

January 30, 2010

I’ve got a post coming up about how many stinking hours I’ve spent resetting my iPhone and reclaiming over 1GB of lost space, but here’s one of the interesting little bits I’ve found along the way. I’ve been looking at some new Winterboard-based designs over at MacThemes, and this one looks pretty interesting. The iPhone [...]

Featured iPhone Theme: Edge Binding SMS 2

January 11, 2010

I don’t visit my iPhone SMS app all that often any more because of iRealQuickSMS (review here), but I might do so more often now just to peek at this SMS skin. It’s called Edge Binding SMS 2, and it features the lovely matted look of Matte UI, but fuses the once free-floating SMS bubbles [...]

Featured iPhone Theme: Avatar Video Theme

January 6, 2010

It’s been a long while since I messed around with video wallpapers on the iPhone. They were a great novelty and were very impressive when they first came out, but for me it wore off after a relatively short while. This video theme for the blockbuster movie Avatar caught my eye though, and I couldn’t [...]

Featured iPhone Theme: Tenuitas by iAndrew

December 8, 2009

This isn’t an iPhone theme in the usual sense, but it does do a heck of a job of re-touching the lock screen portion of your jailbroken iPhone. All you have to do is transfer the Tenuitas theme into your themes folder (mini tutorial here), apply the theme in Winterboard, and you’re good to go.
Tenuitas [...]

My iPhone makeover: Musicskin, Illumine and Matte UI, and a bit of Orbit-themed Overboard

December 2, 2009

I’ve spent a fair amount of my free time customizing my iPhone, and even though I’ll feature a theme every now and then, I thought it might be fun to gather and show all of my mods in one particular place. This isn’t a tutorial about how to achieve this look (although I’ve got a [...]
