Sony has theme changing app aimed at experienced developers

The other day we showed you a new feature coming to HTC Sense 7 that allows you to build you own theme from a photograph taken with your HTC phone. You will see wallpapers based on your photo, and color options for your apps and BlinkFeed will appear, also based on the picture you've snapped. Now, Sony has an app that offers Xperia users the ability to create their own themes. But unlike the one on Sense, Sony's app is aimed at experienced developers.

The Sony Theme Creator app installs on a PC and when used with an image editor like Photoshop, gives you the ability to customize over 300 different assets. The app is currently in Beta. With it, you can create wallpaper, icons, buttons and more. Other features include an Adobe Photoshop template, an editor with an instant preview function and one-click APK export.

The app is made for developers with the focus on building professional looking themes. A professional looking theme can help you promote your skill as a designer. Certain themes will be displayed by Sony on Theme Picker and on Sony's What's New recommendation service. Both are seen by millions of Xperia users. All you need to do is send an email to Sony with your theme's name and a link to it, once it is published.

You can learn more about this feature by clicking on the video slideshow below.
