Anyone else not happy with the way themes look on the NXE?  I purchased the Fable II theme shortly before I downloaded the NXE and was very happy with it, however, it clearly does not go with the NXE.   For one, the whole bottom half of the screen is cut off with the grey "floor" that they have which only leaves the top half of the theme to be shown.  Then, to top it all off, the top half of the theme is cut off by the "blades."  The NXE is not very friendly when it comes to themes and it almost makes me want my money back.

You can still see the whole theme when you click in the submenus, like videos, games, etc. I agree it kind of sucks for old purchased themes, but I'm looking forward to the new dynamic themes that are sure to follow.

It does most certainly suck as a person with around 60 themes not a single one goes with NXE no one can tell me they couldn't design the NXE around old themes its like they didn't even care.

I don't download any themes that aren't free because I think it's a waste. So, not really a big loss for me.

The themes backward compatibility is just tacked on so people can't demand their money back for themes they've previously purchased. It was never designed to be good. Although I think anyone stupid enough to pay for a theme deserves to be burnt (no offense, I'm just exaggerating, I just think themes are a rip off, it's your money you can do what you want with it).

Is it better then the Blades?

The DMC 4 theme is terrible when used on the NXE. I was getting tired of it anyway, so i've just put it on the default daytime thing.

I'm not a fan of the way old themes were implemented, but I prefer the way new themes can be used and look forward to seeing more...

This is definitely one of the most disappointing things from the update. For now, I'm just sticking to the new default 360 theme.

Thats probably why they have a new theme system for it.
The new themes seem rather neat.  More than just a wallpaper
