I don't think I would have bothered to start trying if it wasn't for the simulator. We Sansa owners already know why. >_<

You're up against the smallest color screen I've ever seen. ;)

That's why I usually start out with really big graphics...

karashata:
Perhaps I should have, had I ever considered that I might want to port my themes to other targets.  Then again, I didn't figure I'd get nearly as into (and good at, in my opinion) theme-designing as I did, either.

In any case, I won't be able to port any of my themes any time soon anyway, so for now I won't worry about it.

--- End quote ---

No, but the wiki gallery is not long of this earth.

karashata:
I wonder if the new site will have some way of tracking the number of downloads...  That would be a nice thing to know, then it could give some theme authors an idea of what people like and what to focus on more...
