ANOTHER QUESTION for Raynne- What about Dashboard v. Facelift? Looking at the Aximsite 'must haves' it seems equally split among these two.

Well, those screen shots were taken from the maker's site, but I believe it is Journal Bar.

As for Dashboard, that is a little harder. Dashboard does a good job skinning, but if I remember correctly, if you want the menu bars skinned, you still need a seperate program. I also do not think it allows for cascading menus. I used to use that program on my old Casio EM-500. There are some nice skins available for it, but for me, it took awhile to get used to the layout because the maker of the skin is the one that specifies the layout.


Also, I believe both Snoopsoft Dashboard and Pocket Facelift have demo versions. You may want to try both before making up your mind, and see which one better fits your needs/wants.

I['ll add my vote for facelift. I love fulll screen themes. I tried dashboard, and I like a lot about it but it was just tough to use. I got trapped in a few themes that the buttons weren't very clear and such. I tried icbar so that the themes that aren't full screen I could use a custom bar for but ended up uninstalling it 5 minutes later.

Following all of this advice, I've installed Pocket Facelift. Very inituitive and easy to use! I'm very happy - I'll probably buy the actual version.

How do I find out which Themes are 'full screen'? How do I get full screen themes?

Sadly most themes aren't.

You can get some really nice ones from the forums at pocketfacelift.com

Otherwise you gotta make your own I'm afraid. Unless some one else knows where there are some

Pocket Facelift's forum is definitely the best place to check. There are a few at Pocket Themes, just try searching for Full Screen or FS. And there are a few more here.
