It's good to have more theme creators, but I think you should try a bit more and get to learn the application first. It can be very helpful - also trying out the themes on your own phone to fix bugs. Anyhow, I think your theme would be a lot better if you'd use several different images and graphics.

That seemed a little mean, Mizzle.
Come on, hes just starting out!  (I mean the way you said it)
Heres what I have to say: Try to keep a colour scheme throughout the theme:
For example that blue doesn't seem to fit with the rest of the theme which uses darker, gloomier colours.
The highlight in the 12 icon desktop menu does seem a bit garish and over complicated. Try to keep it a bit simpler. Maybe a nice looking oval shape or something. Plus leave out the lighter blue colour there too.
Mizzle has a good point too. Try using different images across the theme and try not to squash the image. Instead of squashing, you should crop it. Try and keep all the images sticking to the colour scheme too.
Otherwise, you're making a great start Sorry if we are putting you off, you really should keep it up!

Good stuff, Mizzle.
Just looking through it again, I feel like the original image could be changed (Sorry!). Its just that it has a lot of writing on it and on a mobile phone screen its unlikely to be readable and it looks cluttered. Maybe if you could find that image without the writing?
When I create a theme, I use my phone to find errors and aspects I don't like or that don't work, very often. This means transferring the edited theme to my phone up to 20 times during the creation of the theme. This way I get it looking exactly how I want it

Thanks for the comments as I said it my first so they will only get better, it was tested on the w580i and the girl had no errors while running it. It was late when it was completed and the colors probably are off as i was seeing double....lol...will post the next one shortly....it'll be an improved contribution.. Again thanks for the comments.
