This trick is to remove ALL predefined items, and if done correctly, you will have lots of extra space leftover!
1. Do a master reset on the phone.
2. When the phone restarts make sure the automatic keylock never activate!! If this happens you'll have to start all over again. (I don't know why) To ensure it doesn't happen deactivate automatic keylock.
3. Deactivate background picture, screensaver and the welcome message.
4. Create a simple theme without any pictures, only colors and activate it. I used the default settings in Theme Creator Pro3G (or whatever the name is).
5. Go to the Games menu and select a game. Click More and go to the memorystatus screen.
6. Now you'll have to fill up the phones memory completly. I created a large file in notepad, named it test1.thm and transfered it to the phone. Then I renamed it, adjusted the size and send it again and again and again...
...until it said Free memory: 0kb. Then I trasfered a 1 byte file a couple of times just to be sure it was completely full.
7. Now open the My pictures folder. The phone will try to create thumbnails of the pre-stored pictures but will fail since there's no memory left. Just click OK to the error message and then the backbutton. Do this until all pictures has an 'X' as a thumbnail exept the flower, clock and the vodafone animation. These will have a hourglass instead.
8. Go to the phonebook. Create a contact named 'X' and try to assign a picture to it. I started with the animation.
When you select a picture the phone will say something like 'Unable to open picture. Delete?'. Just choose Yes and the picture is gone.
Then select the next picture and so on.
9. When all the pictures are gone, reactivate the background, screensaver, auto keylock and set the welcome message to standard. Restart the phone and your done.

Nothing will happen to your phone.Yes contacts and messeges will be deleted.U can copy your contacts and messeges to your sim and then after master reset u can copy them to your phone

No that can't be saved on your sim.
If you have IrDa or Bluetooth on your phone, then you can send it to your PC for free and put the mback later the same way.
If you don't have them and you really want to save your pictures, then you should send them through e-Mail.
But this will cost you money.
The price depends on your operator.
Cheers

I wonder if this works out for the Vodafone's Phones, because of the predefined menu icons...
