You're my boy blue!!!
Man, here you are again with the icons, I'm excited! I just gave my Touch the Diamond overhaul today.
My suggestion on the style would be to either keep it the way you have (I personally use the grayscale effect in UL on the icon touch) or have the icon image in grayscale with the Diamond green font, I believe it's an emerald color.
WIcKED
I agree. I would like to see the grey scale my self. I'm starting the diamond express on my touch as we speak. Your the man blue. Oh by the way, thanks for all the support you've showed in the General Questions thread. Keep up the good work.
thanks for your feedback.
okay here is another test.
But i think we need some color, but text or picture ? Both would be too much.
ChANGED My MinD
Actually , I changed my mind. I just started gettin some of the home screens on my touch, and I would actually much rather use the Opera in red. I would really like to see both. You couldn't really get it perfect unless you could mix it up with the grey scale and the color's.
How about instead of the gray outline, use the green, with the colored icon and black font?
mmh, after some sleeping, i thing the first thought is often the best, i will make some icons for testing with grey text and colored symbols and try them also in vga
question: what iconsize do you need for vga , 64 x 64 ?
definitely both vga and qvga.
My perfect icons would have
1. Color variants: Black and White
2. Highlight/Border color: Green for White, White/Gray for Black
3. No Text, Only Images
4. Images in Gray/Black/White (I prefer un-colored)
Thanks mate.
as some of you may know i was making about 340 icons for my last set. so making this new one with black and white background would be too much for one man, because this will last weeks or months.
so i will do the white background because i like this clean white style that is so different to all this black styles here in the community.
but i will do more tests and again some questions:
1 do you need the icons also highlighted and for what app ??
2 what size do you need for vga ??
Update see first Post !
I like.... Can you put a small YouTube in your CorePlayer icon?
Can you please make some QVGA ones for Kaiser? Thanks
54 Icons are Ready, also new coreplayer with youtube.
See first Post
I have a few requests if possible:
netfront, active sync, spb backup, slingplayer and ewallet. Also, if you could possibly post the icons in .ico format for ultimate launch. Thanks in advance, your icons always rock!
Blue, always making my PPC eye candy. Love the work man! I would say use the same apps from the prev set.
@m_kranzler11: blue listed the site to download software to convert to .ico
Love the "AC/DC" on the sounds icon! Cause I'm back in black..
Diamond Icons in .ico for UltimateLaunch
Here is the first set in .ico.
Enjoy!
And of course, thanks to blue!

Icons are far too small for Ultimatelaunch. Can you make it 48x48?
great work on the icons
They are in 48x48, .ico images have different size sets included in one, did you adjust the size in UL?
Trust me they work, there on my Touch right now.

GET VERSION 2.0 WITH DIFFERENT CONTACT VIEWS HERE
Here is a Bubble theme I made for PocketCM
I decided I wanted to make a theme that looks complete and is fun to play around with, and this is what I came up with!
!!!!MAJOR IMPROVEMENT WITH THIS VERSION!!!
UPDATE v1.1:
....loading time for landscape is much faster
....landscape looks much better
....smaller file size
....smoother transitions and scrolling
....updated with Gradient No Arrows
Be sure to update! MAJOR improvement over previous version!
Known Issues:
..... you cannot really see the text on the options panel (you have to tilt your screen just right so that you can see it.. I still do not know how to change the font color on this page, however this isnt that big of a deal since you can still see what you need to see)
Attached is a preview screen (bubble preview.zip) of this theme and the two PCMKeyboard skins that are also attached. If you would rather see the preview in the browser, click HERE
Enjoy!

Where would you like them to be?
I was going to.. but they are hard to get to fit in those little bubbles.
htctoucher
I think on the far right (or left) they can fit, probably a slightly larger bubble?
(I dont know if its possible but i mean inside the bubble)
Check the first post - I updated it so now there are contact pictures on the left of the bubbles - I made them as big as it would allow without looking strange
Enjoy!

How do i get to the settings for PocketCM? so i can change the theme :|
nm worked it out
Hello everyone,
Just finished another version of Titanium Themes I am working on. I have portrait & landscape cabs for: VGA, WVGA, QVGA & WQVGA.
The .cab changes your titanium text to icons only, the background, taskbar, etc will not be changed.
Note that I do like the text, however, the icons allow for a more visible background.
Themes are thanks to twolf & mallman as it could not have been completed without them.
I suppose we can call QVGA & WQVGA official, no weather or Opera support now though I do intend to add them ...one of these years.
Downloads attached in this post. Betas are thanks to OndraSter.
You may lock up your phone & have to clear storage, so I recommend you back up first.
A new not so beta WVGA has been added for download. Note the home tab is slightly different (4th screen). Support for Opera & a few other plugins was added so long as you install your plugins first. Lastlly you won't have the Neuropol font, which is only attached to the home tab, unless you add it to \windows\fonts\. I dunno if I can attach it here or not so here's a link to dload it for now: http://www.dafont.com/neuropol.font
Background for VGA screens are from SsS (by Deck on PPC) rom default, stated made by jbchow.
Please feel free to modify & repost this theme as long as it is free.
Enjoy!
very slick
very impressive! Could you upload your wallpaper as well?
This looks good. I didn't like the large text, so reduced it...but your idea of having icons is perhaps even better. I wonder if there is a way to show the icon and when you put u drag the bar, if the icon + text can show. I'll give it a shot when I have some free time.
Thanks
SeanFromSoCal: You should be able to do both. I was thinking about changing the icon to text only when highlighted myself. However, the preview of messages, etc is the only reason I stray from doing so.
My next icon only theme will remove at least one of the secondary icons. You may have noticed the time/alarm was slightly lower than the other icons, it is my intention to release a set without the time/alarm icons on the time bar to better show backgrounds.
eleguent: About the background question, apologies as it is not mine to give, however, you could extract it from the SsS rom here: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=68755
oldsap: Thank you!
Thanks everyone, I hope the set is enjoyed. Also, please feel free to rip this thing apart & reuse it to your pleasure so long as you keep it free.

I'm with you. In attempts to maximize the amount of background shown I also tried messing around with the layer heights. I was trying to make the ClockExpanded height nearly full screen and leaving all the other layers their current height, but the Titanium doesn't appear to let you have different height attributes. When I make all of the plugin heights larger (trying to get fullscreen/near fullscreen plugins), the text would get distorted.
Stupid M$! Fix your Titanium UI to make it recognize all XML attributes so we can full flexibility.

ive installed the cab but cant see it in the list of themes.
am i doing something wrong?

I believe you may not be using the windows default (titanium theme).
The theme should appear when you check "Windows Default" in you Today settings.
Please let me know how it goes.

You could do that by shifting the images of the clock plugin outside the panel and insert above the clock plugin some blank plugins so the text of the other condensed plugins does not come in the way.

A snapshot of the new icons
I think they look very good on my phone. coming tomorrow..
New Icons for Androkkid "TransparentFrames" finally!
These new Icons should work better for those of you who have like me found the standard winmo icon ugly and pixelated.
I have always thought that some of the IPhone's attraction was the beautiful icons that were uniform in size and shape. So I made my own for Ifonz (based on other people's graphic work). When Androkkid came along I loved the scenic wallpapers you could use but I thought the beautiful scenery of the wallpapers became too cluttered with the IPhone style icons and that the square icons ruined the effect of the beautiful wallpapers.
So these new icons are designed to preserve a uniform style and at the same time be better integrated into the "scenery" by using transparency.
I hope that some of you will have a look at these and tell me what you think
PS If you resize these, they will not work. If they are resized by Androkkid they are fine.
If you want to use these and need other icons, ask me on the themes Thread and I'll see what I can do.
!!!!IMPORTANT!!!!
I HAVE MOVED ALL ICON DEVELOPMENT TO THIS THREAD
New!!! Golden Frames
For those who really want to pimp up our phones
here are some Screenshots
The theme used is Teacher's Gold which you find below with the icons
More Screenshots
and even more
the icon files
Finally the iconfiles!
Please consider to try them out, I don't think they are as beautifull as some of the Iphone like icons, like the ones made by bluemetalaxe or Stereo's Leopard, but when you see them glide across the scenery in Androkkid they feel much more integrated into the scenery than the Iphone like icons which leave kind of a square hole in the scenery, however beautiful they are. So what do you have to loose, give 'em a try:
Edit have added new iconfile today 15/12-09 they are now checked out for "white and black" holes and should be okay
!!!!IMPORTANT!!!!

Transparent Icons
These look nice, thank you very much! Any chance you could add a couple more icons to the package (96x96): SMS, Voicemail, Calender, Missed Calls? Or, just tell me how to make these myself and I'll take a stab at it, there's a few web icons I'd like, too. Thanks again!

I'll gladly tell you how I made these, but first here are some suggestions for icons, but what do you mean by an icon for "missed calls" In Androkkid you get a small red circle with the number of missed calls you have. If you think about something else give me a hint
Hope you like these

What is problematic with winmo is that it doesn't support "white". In an icon with transparancy, pure white will show up like a black hole in the icon so you have to substitute white with another light white-ish color.
Another problem is this: When a graphic program like gimp or photoshop compresses a png to a smaller size. it conserves the smoothness of the png by making semitransparant pixels, these are not supported either and show up like white holes in the icons.
If you just index the png it will avoid the semitransparent pixels, but it will scale down with a very crude and pixelated result.
My way around this is to put the compressed png in a frame filled with a very nondescript greyish color. Then I have to eraze all the grey color and decide pixel by pixel which pixels have enough color to let them remain.
This is why it takes so much time to resize these icons. I have to do this every time. In the icon files I have uploaded you can find both an empty and a filled frame.
If you want to try this for yourself you are very welcome to do so but remember that you have test each icon on your phone to find "holes" before you publish them.
PS I haven't tested the last batch of seven icons yet but I will test them before I publish a zip file with extra icons.
PS Gimp is a fantastic graphic program which you can download for free here
Best of luck
Missed Calls
And here's a missed calls icon in three colors
Icons
These all look great, and wow that was fast! By "missed calls" I should have put "Call History" or "Call Log", but it looks like you got the gist with the icons because they're perfect! I'm probably pushing my luck, but maybe a "Tasks" icon? It's the only request I can think of off the top of my head. I'll check out the app you suggested tonight and see if I can create a few "Web" graphics, thanks again!

Thank you so much.. These Icons look great, thats why I hope you can make these so my phone can look even better.
New Theme
Am I the first to produce a new theme for Androkkid?
Let me introduce Obsidian, for those who might prefer a more businesslike theme.
It has been developed on a QVGA screen so I have no idea whether it will work on other screen resolutions.
Just unzip and place the Obsidian folder in the Androkkid Themes folder. It will then be available to select under Settings
The Title buttons (more than shown) can be found in the Obsidian theme folder along with a blank if you wish to make different titles (I can make others if you aren't able to do that). I set the size of the Title buttons to 128 x 32 in Androkkid settings and they have to be positioned, as for any other icon. They can also be used as shortcuts as per normal icons. For example, in my setup, I have the Contact button pointing to my address book.
The 'Lock' Icon on the Home page is not part of the theme but has been designed to match. I have included that icon in the Obsidian theme folder, but none of the other icons.
8 December 2009
Obsidian.zip updated for compatibility with Androkkid 1.2.0.0 (inclusion of TopBarIcons,png) and correction of transparency problem with Edit & Delete buttons
15 December 2009
Obsidian.zip updated with modified graphics

There already is a cleanram icon (the one with the broom) but if you don't like it I can make another. For SoftReset I use the icon from the icon pack called "exit" (I use "Slide2shutdown" myself) There also is a bluelock (ScreenLock) in the iconpack I have that one in green and red too
I don't know which sound widget you mean, please give me a link or something.
Here are some examples, tell me what you think..

This CAB will install a skin/theme to the WM SMS screen (Compose SMS Screen ONLY!). The bubble will expand as you type, not fixed background.
Note: Tested on WVGA only.
V0.2 - dialog box now with border. So that you can use white background.
* Please uninstall V0.1 first you if you have it before.
Customize:
1) \windows\sms_compose_bubbleu.png - You can change the cartoon to whichever character you like, or it could even be yourself! Best fit with transparent background.
2) Change background color:
2a) Edit \windows\zz_compose_style.css >
body {
margin: 2px;
background-color: #000000; => edit this line to change the background color! You can refer the color code from:

Thanks!
I was inspired by AndyNear threaded SMS skin, and Ahen and Ganondolf SMS background. But unlike SMS background, this is more CSS than fixed background. I did the scripting myself. May be a bit raw but still is my own work.
Thx for the file. I try to edit my original compose_sms.htm without good result. Do u know what resolution of picture could be used on Rhodium? I used 480x800 resolution but only show a little part of the picture.
And I wanna white background and not black like urs. How could I do it?
TIA
Looks really nice! Cool idea!
Thank you! now the sms screen is a lot better!

Awesome thanks man
I don't know if this is how it is on the phone but in your picture the 'black' has a green square next to it. Also, does this overwrite the current accent colors? What I mean is, if I already have xboxmods SP1 installed will I now have like 3 different 'green' accents listed? If yes to the multiple 'green' accents, could this be fixed? If no, fantastic!
EDIT: One other thing. Would it be possible to have the names listed with spaces? For example at the top you have 'darker blue' (good) but lower down you have things like 'mediumblue' and 'oldlace' (bad grammar) and so on. It would just look better/more professional.

OMFGGTFOLMFAO!
Use your registry editor to do whatever you like!
This is the same List Box Selection listed in Microsoft Programming manual for Windows Phone 7 for making a Silverlight application with exception of adding
nokia blue, darker blue, darkest blue & navy seal blue.
I added those in myself.
They are simply 6 digit html color codes along with an added alpha channel
Every color needed 3 lines of code in the registry properly named and numbered
We did it buy the book so this is as professional as possible! If you want to rewrite the book or the registry or make a nice video tutorial for someone to learn something buy all means be my gest.
If you want to take your phone to lows or home depot & mach up color names please to so!
Everything has now been hardcoded in to the registry. The colors where actually already there but the registry values had not been written yet! Microsoft gave us 10 colors & allowed careers to add 3 of their likening for business purposes the problem is with both Windows mobile 6.5 & Windows phone 7 is that Microsoft gave us the bare minimum of what we actually needed without customization options.
Which is the #1 reason why wp7 is not more popular than android.
They just wanted to make something that worked well & be light in size.
When Microsoft make something thay don’t make it to look good. They make it to work good. Because if it works good then it will look good! ;~) So now it works & looks good! You have 154 new colors in your system that take up almost no space. I whooping 33.34kb is next to nothing! & on top of that you can now customize your phone in the blink of an eye!
Keep in mind that some of the colors don’t mix well with the dark & light background!
For instance if your using darkest blue on a black background you have trouble reading the darkest blue text! & other visual problems will occur with the mix of serein colors.
As you can see a lot of medium & light colors have been implemented because most use a dark background however we could possibly make more darker & darkest colors!
The darker your tiles the less battery drainage!
I note there are 2 blues 2 to greens but they different shades.
In time more colors will eventually be added!
The 10 default colors are not named correctly but more or less just simple easy to see colors.
You can simply remove or rename any accent color you like.
I had to do a lot to get you guys here and I had also a lot of help to bring you this
However I don’t exactly feel like typing up 50 names of thanks so I will just say thanks to everyone! I just cranked out lines & lines of code on top of a lot of other work I’m doing this was just a side project please don’t say its not profesonal it’s a gift. Unwrap it!
I also converted to HTML (Hyper Text Markup Lang) But nvm enjoy!
also feal free to make 100.000.000 more! & share hear!
Works great !!! very good job , now plenty themes to choose from !!! nice work.
I can confirm that to..works great!sooo many colors

Yes there is,
Black 000000 displays as what ever color you have set to your theme to at the time of picking it.
If you pick black it will work just fine with the exeption of you not being able to read black text on a black background.

We just did!
Nice colors! Thanks, but I have duplicates how can I remove them easily?
Is there a remove cab so I can delete all existing colors before re-applying?
Why doesn't your Colors cab just overwrite the ones already there?
I already use a program called Advanced Config. It lets you make your own colors on the phone, rename them and much more.
Mod Edit: Attachments removed per OP request. ~TRM
Well, for those of us that prefer not to have duplicate colors listed in an already very large list, I have edited the color rgu in the CAB and attached it to this post in a zip. All it needs is to be re-added to the cab and resigned, something xboxmod would have to do. I also fixed the theme names so that there are spaces in-between the words in the name. For example 'AliceBlue' is now 'Alice Blue' as this offers a much more professional and polished look for the end user.
EDIT 1: I'll ask xboxmod if he can build the cab again for us. If he does I'll post it here. I don't want to take any credit for this as it is a good idea that wasn't mine, I just want a better end result.
EDIT 2: xboxmod was nice enough to rebuild the cab but I noticed some errors I overlooked so I will be fixing those and then pestering xboxmod again.
EDIT 3: Ok, so I have edited jackrabbit's cab so that it should have no duplicates (this is assuming 7720+SP1 or higher) and have the names with proper spacing. Enjoy!
jackrabbit72380,
I would like to say THANK YOU for your gift!
Cheers,

I already use a program called Advanced Config. It lets you make your own colors on the phone, rename them and much more.

Thare is a bug in the Accsent colors made with Advanced config.
The program uses old version of "xxxx_ThemeResources.xaml" & "xxxx_System.Windows.xaml".
There is some applications that wont display text corectly.
Also thare are not duplicate colors In COLORS.cab If you have duplicate colors then you can simply remove them with a registry editer as I stated in my second post.
We dont want an advanced config! Insted we have advanced system menu with all tweeks cooked in. witch is what we try & do.
just navigate to...
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/ControlPanel/Themes/0/Accents & HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/ControlPanel/Themes/1/Accents & HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/ControlPanel/Themes/AccentsDisplayName
Then remove the values you like.
In all 3 directorys for each accsent!
Honistly you should not even have to do this.

The darker your tiles the less battery drainage!

dont think thats true, the back light is always on and is consistant across the screen, the display panel then has several layers of filters, electrodes and other molecules which light passes through, to display darker colours the display needs to block more light coming through, which in a tiny way, will use more energy. If you want to use less energy you need to block less light, ie have a white background and have a primary (light) colour
Yes, Geek alert!
i doubt its even measurable on our devices so i wouldnt worry but for hardcore energy savers, light is the way to go with colours, dark is the way to go with backlight (thats the biggest energy blackhole we have)

Well, for those of us that prefer not to have duplicate colors listed in an already very large list, I have edited the color rgu in the CAB and attached it to this post in a zip. All it needs is to be re-added to the cab and resigned, something xboxmod would have to do. I also fixed the theme names so that there are spaces in-between the words in the name. For example 'AliceBlue' is now 'Alice Blue' as this offers a much more professional and polished look for the end user.

Thanks, but can you also ask xbmod to give us a remove cab with it. Honestly, every cab should be removable in case users have problems.
A few issues I'd like to mention:
I set one of the new colors yesterday, and this morning I noticed my phone was very sluggish. I switched back to one of the original colours, and my phone was immediately back to normal speed. This cab was the only thing I changed on my phone yesterday, so I think there could be an issue somewhere.
Also, the new colours don't take effect inside 3rd party apps like Whatsapp. I don't mean the tile, I mean inside the program (e.g. A-Z in contacts) where the new colours always show up as the default blue.
