Nokia E55 Theme Review: Nokia Neon Noise

Monday, June 29th, 2009

Nokia Neon Noise is a S60 theme created by Yan Flahorn. Neon Noise is supposed to be a lifestyle theme and looks quite nice. The theme consists of grey, black and neon green colors.

nokia neon noise by flahorn Nokia E55 Theme Review: Nokia Neon Noise The theme background/ wallpaper represents broken grey and at some points almost black asphalt with neon green graffiti like patterns on it. Those neon green patterns look really nice and refreshing. Most of them are circles with white circle parts in them which then are placed very closely together. Around those circle patterns there are some color stains which are also in neon green. Near the bottom the asphalt fades to a pitch black.

The font color is white which is very well visible both in contrast to the background and the neon green. Of course the battery and status bars are also in white. The primary indication field is slightly transparent and in neon green like you would expect it to be. A stronger shade of neon green is also used as the secondary font color which isn’t transparent.

Flahorn also overworked the music player to fit Neon Noise better. The media buttons (e.g. play, skip, stop etc.) are now in green and white.

Overall this theme is a nice alternation to the themes that I reviewed so far. It doesn’t have a really innovative concept since the circle like patterns are known to many of us already but the integration and the colors used give this theme somewhat of an individual look.

Like with every Flahorn theme you can download it over at his Deviantart page.

Nokia E55 Theme Review: Zune Themes Vol.1 by Flahorn

Monday, May 25th, 2009

zune themes vol 1 by flahorn 458x1023 Nokia E55 Theme Review: Zune Themes Vol.1 by FlahornLet me present you a series of Flahorn themes which are all identical to each other except for their main wallpaper/ background image. The last theme I reviewed from Flahorn was the Touch theme which was inspired by the Nokia 5800 XM. This new series of themes were inspired by Microsoft’s PMP, the Zune. The Zunes brand logo is colored in orange and pink which fade into each other. Therefore these colors appear at least once in every menu. May it be as an icon color or as a frame color.

The Zune Themes Vol.1 is made of three themes. They are called Phyta, Everglade and Organica. Phyta’s wallpaper/ background image contains the colors pink, a very light orange and a strong white. The image also contains a white flower pattern which is visible in the pink parts. The Everglade wallpaper has a strong white color as well in combination with an olive-green which is fading in some parts of the image. Lastly the Organica wallpaper starts with a grey pattern at the top and fades very fast into the usual white.

Flahorn used an improved version of his S60 Prototype Icons. Most of them have a glossy effect now. The main font color is black and the secondary one is a shade of “dark beige”. The distinctive Zune color (orange to pink) is used as the color of the clock, the indication frame and in the calculator.

These themes are really nice and you don’t have to be a Zune fan to appreciate them. To download them visit Flahorn at Deviantart.
