Newsletter - Themes
Day 3
1 Aug 2002
This issue, I shall introduce 3 features: Themes, Screensavers, and voice recorder.
THEMES
T68i allows you to create colour themes via http://wap.sonyericsson.com . You need to register to use the free service. T68i comes with 5 themes - Classical, Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter. This gives you a good idea on what you can do to the menu colours. It works just like personalising your MS Windows (except changing the fonts). There are some unofficial theme creator software as well as theme files circulated on the internet.
Once you manage to download these files with .THM extension, you can transfer it from your PC to your T68i. That's the beauty of T68i ! The phone accepts PC-compatible files, and works just like a PDA!!
Again, the themes can be sent and received via MMS.
SCREENSAVERS
After a few seconds of inactivity, your phone will display the undeliable CLOCK. But before that, you can choose to display a short screensaver sequence. If you wonder how you can get the screensaver image, it's basically an animated GIF file stored in your 'My Pictures' folder. If you come across any animated GIF files on the internet, just copy it, resize to 101x80, copy it to your phone via IR or bluetooth and select that as your screensaver.
VOICE RECORDER
With T68i and MMS, you can now send a personalised voice message to your recipient. The voice record capacity has increased almost twenty-fold, from 90s to over 1800s (the size is dynamically shared with images, ringtones and themes).
