Does anyone know if there is a decent T-Mobile theme for BlackBerry phones? T-Mobile International actually makes some nice themes for their phones while the USA division seems to do it as an afterthought. Just thought I would ask.

Checking out blackberryforums.com or blackberry.pinstack.com and do a search for "unlocked vendor themes" will show you how to unlock all the vendor themes for all blackberry options worldwide. Make sure you read EXACTLY what needs to be done because you need to edit the .alx file and while there is little you can do to your phone that can't be fixed it is a master file you are editing so be careful.

Thanks for the info. I've already done that and currently use the Vodafone theme most of the time. I just wasnt sure if there was a T-Mobile UK specific theme.

There is one thats central to T-mobile UK though I don't recall any specific differences other than the messages box being combined for sms and mms messaging. Not sure I really notice them going to anything other than my messages box here in the states but maybe I just haven't paid attention.
Also, if you are a Pearl user, have you seen the colorpearl application available at http://www.geekandproud.net/blackberry-software
NOW that gets the Pearl customers jealous when they come into my store. I'm constantly switching colors depending on my theme for th day!
I've been thinking about having my designer create several themes for phones, what do you think about that? Would it be a good idea?

Absolutely, I'd happily use a t-mobile theme thats not "t-mobile" branded so to speak. Some fancy icons, maybe in zen form and it would rock!
I'm in the process of teaching myself plazmic theme creator. Though I think I have some time to go before I am cranking out themes.
I wonder what can of a background we could come up with?! Some fancy T-mobilesignal background would be awesome on a zen theme. Each icon like a different version of "T" or something. Could be awesome.

I should clarify that I am using a BlackBerry 8700g. Thank you though to all the great links.

have you looked on eveek.com?
as for a t-mobile signal theme... if you can get your designer to make me an iconset for blackberries (i can send the default images so he can get an idea of what's to be done) and perhaps a wallpaper image, i could whip up an 8100 theme
