I can no longer whine about how boring or blah the Netvibes themes are (or how few). New customization features were introduced today! This is a very welcome announcement.
Not only is there a new theme creator, but there are also a handful of new themes to use. The new themes look nice. Maybe I can change from ye olde Winter Plain now.
So far I’m liking Veerle. Not quite my usual style, but a nice change of pace.
The theme creator itself is pretty simple and doesn’t give you the ability to “tweak” the existing themes. It just changes all the background color. You can also type you color in directly if you know it.
I was hoping to be able to customize one of the preset themes, but apparently that’s not yet an option. Hopefully someday?
The wallpaper stuff makes up for that to some extent. You can now change the background in either the header area or the main module area. There are some preset images to use, but you can also pull from several other services which is nice little bonus. There are also options for alignment, tiling and text color.
Now, how about a nice Google Reader module?

I much prefer the positioning of the stuff with this theme, old theme had it all at the bottom. I never GO to the bottom of the page, and thus, never saw things like your cloud, etc., unless I went looking for them.
Just noticed you weren’t NC on your CC 3.0 license. I thought somehow that you were Non-Commercial at some point.
Hmm, I dropped the NC at some point last year. There was even a reason that I can’t quite recall now…
