    Hi braxtoq:

    You are welcome in advance...

    Now let's see if we can help. Should be fairly simple. You can use your reader and microSD card to download those you find. I am assuming you already store pictures on the card. You should have a folder titled "My Pictures" along with the default "Preloaded Pictures". You could also set a new one titled "Wallpapers" if you like.

    Load the backgrounds of your choosing to the appropriate folder. When you reinstall the card in your phone, simply navigate to the folder and highlight the picture you want > press the Menu Key > select "Set As Home Screen Image" and you are done.

    Crackberry has some nice ones. Here are a couple of links:

    Crackberry 8100 wallpapers. Just right click in thread and save to PC or to your card.

    Crackberry full selection For each device model.

    And this one too....
    Mobile 9 Also for the Pearl.

    I hope it helps.

    Yes, I was looking at that. If you run your cursor over them on the PC, they should appear as clickable links though. I was going to ask Chris about it as they don't really stand out too well. On my BB they do appear as full links and are underlined.

    BTW, the links you suggested have been posted. Check your profile for the reply. That is also a weird system. I don't know why we can't send email from the profile page. These "conversations" don't provide any warning or notice you get one. I just happened to find your note.

    Thanks,

    Sometimes I fix things that I didn't even know were broken.

    Actually, I completely revamped the Berry template. After the upgrade of a few weeks ago, there have been some minor issues across the various sites. I figured it out that it's easier to just use one of the working templates and then build in the Berry flavor.

    If you notice any issues, just give me a heads up. Most of them I've seen, so the fixes should come quickly.
