Custom iPhone Theme “Night Sky” (Updated)
Date: February 14th, 2009 Category: Things Tags: apple, iphone, iphone themes, winterboard [ 6 ]
A while back I posted my custom iPhone theme called “Night Sky”. I recently replaced the icons with a new set and wanted to repost the download. The new icons come from the theme called “Deep“. I also updated the SMS “bubbles” as well (matte finish).
For installation help and other info about my custom theme, check out my original post.
“Twinkle” App aka. iPhone Party Line

The iPhone app Twinkle was one of the better looking/working Twitter clients available for free when 3rd party apps were still new to the device. The app allows you to post tweets to your Twitter account as well as see others tweeting within so many miles of your location via the iPhone.
Cool right? Well sorta… Tapulous, the people who created Twinkle, also allow people without a Twitter account to post tweets via their own network/service. So, other than seeing my friends tweets (which is the point), I also have to withstand a constant stream of random idiots blabbing about all kinds of dumb shit and posting pics of things I really don’t need to see.
Basically you get a lot of “I’m bored – talk!” or “Hey, check out how sexy I am (pic attached)” etc. Oh, and let’s not forget about the occasional guy who sends me a pic of his junk and some creepy proposition. Even if I was gay I would still find it equally disturbing so, yeah, can we stop that now?
Not to pick on “kyri1″ but here’s a perfect example. As a matter of fact it’s the “straw that broke the camel’s back” and made me finally remove Twinkle and go with TwitterFon.
