@Jison and others
You can open a theme file with winrar. When you open it up you get, the backgrounds in gif format, any title bar graphics also in gif and an xml file which the phone uses to adjust the colour scheme. Hope this helps.

Sorry for the late reply. Been swamped with work 
About the website, I'd love to work together on it - you've done a lot of hard work on the themes and they need to be easily accessible by everyone. Web host space is no problem. I have a number of hosts we can use where we will not have the bandwidth issue hampering us. I am an Internet developer so webs are my business 
About Photoshop, I think Version 7 is the by far the most powerful image editing software available. It's an amazing improvement over 6 in most tools and the interface looks much calmer so I feel more comfortable while using it 
Let me know about that site!

Mimzo--> I'm on for it but not at the moment. I'm also really busy with work right now until around the end of the month. I'm a designer so technical issues stump me now and then. I'll upgrade to photoshop 7 when I can find the time. Will let you know about the site soon. |

He said there's some problem with microsoft .net pages and needs to find a host that doesn't use cookies. He's still trying to solve the problem. |

@Jison
In addition to what bean_muncha mentioned which was absolutly correct, I would like to add that a .thm file is basically a renamed .tar file!!!
Which means you can use your favourite file comprossion program (ie. Winzip, Winrar, PKZip...) to open it! |

jizzer--> You must make sure that the pic is of the correct dimensions (101px x 80px). At times, you may be able to send the pic over but not view it on your phone. This happens to large files but it just takes some time to load or "install" into the phone. After awhile the pic will appear. |

I've noticed that more people are getting into creating their own pictures and themes (instead about always bitching about no websites and wapsites to download...) and thought I'd start this thread to share ideas among us. Tips like enhancing pic quality, good colour combinations, softwares used etc. How about that? We could also share ideas on making some themes or maybe even start some mini design competition! (I'm just kind of bored at work again  ) Hope we can share some real useful information here!
To start off, here's what I'm using
Theme Creator form christersson v4.1.1
Adobe Photoshop 6
T68 colour palette (.act file) [you really need this]
Occasionally, Adobe After Effects
Lot's & lot's of pics from the web
Also, I find that lighter shades of colours (esp. blues, and oranges) turn out rather poor on the phone. (looking almost white)
Colour saturation for pics should be bumped up quite high (this may look terrible on your pc. If your got photos, the people look like they're sunburned ) but it translates better once its on the phone.
Go easy with the contrast. It may look ok on a computer monitor, but you'll notice a lot of white patches if you transfer the pics to your phone. (i'm guilty of not adjusting this back even though I've seen the pic already sucks on the phone)
If pics turn out too light on the phone, try adjusting the phone's contrast instead of readjusting light settings on the computer and transferring again. This works on most pics.
I'll get back soon with more tips. Hope to hear some too
