    Hello Nokia Team

    I'm looking into distributing themes for S40 6th Edition handsets within the personalisation section of OVI, but it currently appears to be swamped with Flash clocks at the moment . I would have thought that customers would be confused by the fact that themes are not featuring prominently within their own section? Have there been any disgruntled customers who thought they were recieving a theme and not just a clock? Would Flash clocks be better suited within an applications section? I ask this because I want to ensure that time spent developing such themes does not go to waste once they reach market.

    Thank you

    I thbink that you need to be a premium publisher in order to sell themes!

    Thanks for your input tamhanna!

    My company does have premium publisher status and we're currently distributing themes for other platforms. I'm just curious about the reasoning behind the placement of Flash products in a theme/personalisation area and whether or not customers are being mislead? If potential customers are being driven away due to the lack of actual theme products in this area, then genuine theme product sales may suffer. I'd like some thoughts on this subject from a business point of view. All comments are welcome!

    sorry - butr this is something I cant really comment on either.

    However: if everybody does flash clocks, they likely do sell...

    Dear publisher,

    Thanks for your concern. Flash lite application .nfl can be in applications or games category. Regarding theme only .sis and .nth are supported. .swf file needed to be packaged as either wgz, nfl or sis file. If you need more information, please refer to page 50 of the publisher guide which you can obtain in here https://publish.ovi.com/help/content_providers.

    In answering your question about clock application, sometime clock is treated as animated wallpaper or screensaver. Since we don't have a category for screensaver, it ends up in another category.

    If you have other question, please contact us publishertoovi.support@nokia.com.

    Regards,
    oviJude
