I don't remember the thing that told you the theme size before...

Also, not really relevant but the W950i is tuned to Radio 1

The theme size feature is also present in 2.10 and maybe more before that but I don't know

EDIT:

I have found it in the release notes

You cannot do that via theme creator.



You need to open the theme file in winrar and extract images.
