SITE REVIEW: Your Free Mobile Theme

Hi guys,

I have created a web site called OwnSkin for Nokia and Sony Ericsson mobile phone users. It is a site for one to create mobile theme online and share with each other. If you carry a Nokia or Sony Ericsson mobile phone, you are welcome to visit my site and created your own theme, or download others creation. For those who do not use Nokia and Sony Ericsson, you are also welcome to visit my site and give me some comments.

We have over 10,000 of themes created per day now from many parts of the world, from Russia to Australia, from USA to China etc.

Here is my site www.ownskin.com.

Thanks everyone.

hav u made it WAP enabled too?

Yup, you can download it via wap too.

The site looks good. However, there is one thing I don't like about it: You have copied the old YouTube design. Why not create something unique?

One thing I'd suggest changing is your links to each theme. For instance, you have links in the form of: http://www5.ownskin.com/theme_detail?t=53eYv7pV. Why not change your .htaccess file rules and modify it to create links like: http://www5.ownskin.com/theme_detail-53eYv7pV.php ?

Hi moshdj2uk, what is the good points for using a different URL that you mentioned ?

large language preferences,

when the page shown in Turkish, i surprized.

The language selection is a great idea.

I don't is it just me or the site times a long time to load and I have DSL.

Hi, Jump_hard,

May I know where are you surfing the site from ? Actually, we have www2.ownskin.com and www7.ownskin.com, can you try which is faster for u ? And how many seconds it take to load a page ?

Thx.

Loads fast for me
the design is the old youtube one, but it's ok..
i think it would be better if Supported models were in a dropdown menu

looks good

looks good.But the themes are only for symbian phones.why does it beta near the title?

I saw that some people mentioned it already but anyhow, the design does look abit 'you tubeish'. It's not bad at all, very simple and straight forward, but it is apparent that it's the same style as you tube is (or was).

Other than that i really dont have much negative to say about your site, i tried it the functionallity in various ways, tried to download a skin to my Nokia 6680 etc and it worked flawlessly.

One thing you could do though is to put a nice logo at the top left of the page, where it now says just Ownskin beta in some generic font. A nice jpg logo there would be nice.

looks good, but i rekon u should come up with your own design

well, i really like to come out with my own design, however, my art sense cannot make it....

anyone willing to help ?

Good idea, readable content, easy menu, language versions, search engine.

Little bug in polish translation:
1 Ocenas
2 Ocenas

Better is Ocen: 1. Ocenas is not a polish word.
