Starbucks Cafe by HooraiCH
Starbucks lovers this is for you! Forums member HooraiCH has created a FREE Starbucks theme with custom icons and wallpapers for 480x360 devices on BB6. I love the font on this one and the colors are great! If you download this one, be sure to leave a comment in the forums for him.

OS7 9000 by Blynky
Minimal type themes are really popular these days, and Blynky has made one just for you Bold 9000 users! Featuring only signal and battery meters on the home screen, your wallpaper will shine right through. There is a single icon dock on the bottom left of the screen, which when you scroll through actually changes, giving you access to the first 6 icons of your app screen. It's a unique idea that adds function without sacrificing any screen space.

Circuits by Magmic
If you're a techie, nerdy, geeky person, check out Circuits by Magmic. With an animated home screen, digital type font, and bright green icons, you're sure to feel like you've peeled back your BlackBerry casing and are using it from within. Circuits is available for $3.99 and is compatible with most BlackBerry smartphones on OS 4.2-5.0.

Focus by iHeartMyBB
Focus is a theme for those who love to keep it simple. Wallpaper friendly with semi-transparent banners will make Focus one of your favorite themes. With a custom layout featuring a hidden mini-dock, weather slot, hidden today (Torch version only), and plenty of keyboard shortcuts, you're sure to enjoy using this theme. Focus also features a custom clock, which I think looks awesome.
You can pick up Focus on sale right now for just $.99 (regularly $2.49) for BlackBerry 89xx, 9630/50, 97xx, and 9800 (OS 5.0 and 6.0 only).

Trail by Raypho
I'm really quite fond of Raypho themes. Trail is one of their newest, and it is simply gorgeous. You control what you see and don't see on your home screen with the 4 small button icons at the bottom left of your screen. The first toggles your 7 icon dock, the second is for the hidden today, the third is for the weather slot, and the final button turns off all 3 at once. The custom battery and signal meters are great, appearing as just a number so you can tell at a glance where you're sitting. The script font on the home screen is beautiful and easy to read, and the icons and text is all very sharp.
Trail is on sale right now for $2.99 (regularly $3.99) and is compatible with BlackBerry 8330/50i, 85xx, 89xx, 91xx, 93xx, 95xx, 96xx, 97xx, and 9800

Urban Nightmare Animated Theme by BB-Freaks
Flickering street lights and a bat flapping around against a spooky background set the scene for Urban Nightmare, a new theme from BB-Freaks. The animated home screen is mostly black and white, with red accents throughout. Hit your spacebar or touch the screen (for Torch and Storm devices) and a light shines down, illuminating 5 icons that appear to be strewn up the sidewalk. These are user defined by the first 5 icons on your app screen. The font is rather creepy and rounds out the theme nicely.
Urban Nightmare is well done, and if you're interested in crime shows, or Halloween, or just like eerie settings, take a look at it! BB-Freaks makes great themes, and you know when you buy one that it will run smoothly on your BlackBerry. You can get Urban Nightmare on sale for $3.99 (regularly 5.99) for BlackBerry 85xx, 89xx, 91xx, 93xx, 95xx, 96xx, 97xx, and 9800.

Clean up your home screen with Seven Point Five for OS7 devices - 25 copies up for grabs
I've always hated that fact that there is such little screen space on my BlackBerry Bold 9900 between the icons and the top banner. It cramps things up quite a bit and totally limits the fun wallpapers you can use. Seven Point Five hopes to change all that by cleaning things up a bit. This simple theme takes the top banner and fits it all into one neat row, leaving plenty of space to...
