My Blog theme goes mobile

My blog theme has gone mobile on my S60 based Nokia 6600. Sailing in the Finnish archipelago is very central to my personality and I thought this would be perfect to keep me going through the long and dark winter.

The enclosed screenshots give you some indication of what it looks like.

I was lucky to recieve a unique custom designed theme as a birthday present in January. When asked what kind of theme I wanted, it was not hard to choose. It should be something related to yachting and the Finnish archipelago. I knew that the blue and white would work very well on phone screens. I wanted to re-use the iconography and colours used on my blog, and it turned worked well also in the mobile context.

I have a multi-platform co-ordinated personal identity ;-) It was designed by Annika Macke, a young talented graphics designer I know.

The themes capability in the Series 60 platform is one of my new favourite enablers. This technology takes personalisation of the phone to a whole new level, making the it an even more intimate object.

I have noticed that there are more and more themes for the Series 60 are appearingon the web. Creating good themes is very difficult and also labour intensive, if you have seen some good themes let me know and I can share them here.

I really like this theme (as I like your blog too - You're listed in my very reduced Typelist :-)).

Are you going to share it ?
I have a 6630 and, exept for the Wallpaper (I have my family, but with blue colors too), I would love using it...

Anyway, as it's a birthday present, I will understand if you want to keep it unique.

Best regards from France...

Chris Locke writes about "Indigo Children," a meme reported on by the New York Times. The Indigo idea sounds like it pushes a whole bunch of buttons all at once — New Age, angels, the paranormal, child-worship, ADD. If it had some anti-child-porn hysteria about it, it'd be perfect. As one of the people in the NYT article says, this is basically the same social world view as Harry Potter's muggles v. wizards set up.

Anyway, it is a great example of what Chris has been talking about over at Mystic Bourgeoisie, America's Toughest to Spell weblog
