70Personalisation
The A50 offers you numerous op- tions for personalisation, i.e. individ- ual configuration to suit your own specific tastes. For example you can have operator graphics as bitmaps * or screensavers sent via SMS to your mobile phone. SMS can also be used to send sounds as ring tones to your A50.
The Siemens City Portal offers nu- merous ring tones, screensavers and operator bitmaps*.
You will find the City Portal in the Internet under:
The portal also includes a list of countries where this service is avail- able.

*An operator bitmap is a graphic which can be loaded into the display of the mobile telephone in place of the network operator designation and will appear there permanently. This graphic is however linked to the network of the operator concerned and is not usually displayed during roaming (e.g. when you are logged on abroad to the network of another provider).
In addition you can choose another colour for the top or bottom cover or even use a personal photo in JPEG format to make your A50 unique. To make it easier for you to do this, you can choose one of a number of templates that best suits your re- quirements. Naturally you can also create the front and back of your mo- bile telephone entirely as you wish.
