I made this theme (http://misc.ph34r.me.uk/t610/mop.thm) (feel free to grab anything you like from there btw, all the mime types are set so it'll work directly to your phone too), but when i try to open it it just says it cant and asks if i wanna delete it.. Any ideas why? The theme works 'k in Theme Creater 3G or whatever its called.. Cheers, woz.

It seems to be the size. 150k is pretty large for a theme. I loaded it in to PhoneAgent and re-saved the theme with higher JPEG compression (the theme was 36k afterwards) and it worked fine and looked the same.

Working theme is here. (Right-click and save to disk).

well - it does seem to work in theme creator - but its way to big.
150kb is alot for 1 theme. The pics should be optimised some more before creating the theme. My themes averages at only 30kb. As to why it does not work - could be the images are saved in progressive mode ?

I don't know if the images are saved go progressive mode, but that breaks themes doesn't it.. Woz.
