If you are a bit bored (already?) with the looks and possibilities of your Nokia N95, you better head over to the (unofficial) Symbian Blog.
The post “Pimp your N95” contains some perfect pointers to spice up your N95 and in the comments, a very sweet link to the Nokia Owners site is mentioned. When you register at this site you get access to 2 splendid themes and 2 great ringtones.
I just changed my own theme:

So I fought myself through the registration process for the apparently Asia-based Nokia Owners website which does basically offer nothing but those two themes and ringtones, and unfortunately there are not even any previews. Is there a way to see what I’m getting before I install any of these themes? Which one did You install and how did You know what You were getting?

No, I did not know what I was getting, but I simply downloaded the 2 themes and tried them… not that big a deal.
Here are the screenshots for both:

and “paw-flower” theme
Look nice and work good, I will consider buying it.

You’re probably right, trying out themes is not a hassle, however I’ve had quite negative experiences with testing loads of Java and Symbian software - not unlike on Windows these programs, once uninstalled, left behind tons of junk that cannot be deleted manually. As I am just about to upgrade my firmware anyhow, however, I guess I will just go crazy with all the stuff I always wanted to try first, as a firmware upgrade sets everything back to zero no matter what.
