Happy New Year!
by mrtolles on Jan.01, 2010, under Other, Themes
After not doing anything with the Home page of BerryFreeThemes last year I decided it was time to move my blog over and switch to WordPress for the new year! I hope for 2010 to bring some great changes to BerryFreeThemes including more themes, more devices and more Great Free theme maker’s themes featured. There will be some visual changes made over the next week or so, and well i’m sure somewhere along the line I’ll mess something up and crash the site, but I promise some new and updated themes while I make the switch!

BlackBerry Theme Studio 5.0 Released!!!!
by mrtolles on Nov.09, 2009, under Other
BlackBerry chose to take the Theme Builder in house and it is no longer Plazmic. Plazmic was owned by RIM, but somewhere along the line Plazmic just didn’t cut it. (Somewhere? Ok it was the bugs!)Has Blackberry fixed the bugs? Only time and theme building will tell. I should have my first theme out on the new software tomorrow, and will keep up with all my fellow FREE theme makers to see what all BlackBerry was able to fix. For now, here is a link to download the FREE software and a list of new Features!
