[Sep 02] "Skyline" rlToday Theme - Windows Mobile Themes

Hi all! Thought I'd share my theme I designed and created today.
It's inspired by Cityscape by drmidnight.
The iconset, I can't remember where I got it from [it's on my other PC, will update with appropriate credit when I have it ]. The background was found in my My Pictures folder, so I've *no* idea where it came from, heh!
It's linked to PocketCM, so feel free to change that in the XML if you wish.
Skyline for rlToday

Not in Australia

I've updated the first post with some more information
It requires PocketCM, so if you don't have it feel free to change the XML to whatever you like. I'm thinking about possibly making the contacts button respect rlToday's Applications list, so that it's up to you to change in via rlToday, without messing about with XML files.
Thoughts?
I only wish rlToday had guestures and transitions. Then it'd be perfect.

Woooohoooo !

what a simple theme..looks nice

I really like seeing more and more themes pop up.
Looks really great! I am going to try it out.
I love the iconset, any chance you have the whole set? I would enjoy messing around with it on some more ideas I have.

I actually do have the whole set. There's some brilliant stuff in here. As soon as I get home I'll post up the link

I don't have a tsk file. Its just the wallpaper. If you want me to post the wallpaper file i'll be happy to do so.
yeah, its basicly what I wanted, that ppl share their wallpaper either as a jpg, gid, png w/e or a tsk
My contribution, My favorite is the "bodyskin" wallpaper I frequently use.
I made some new themes
Stratocaster
Gibson
Evanescence​
Off topic:

nice man lol
May i ask which software do you guys use to make these theme?
I have some nice pictures to use as background, but don't know how to put them on an existing theme or make a new theme from them.
The function to "use a picture" in WM6 always give these pictures some degrees of transpelation and when it combine with the letters in white color, really hard to read.
Ok i found this:
http://www.htcwizardweb.net/node/1884
Worked for a newb like me, should work for all.
Something funny
Someone should make a theme with Janet Jackson's "nipplegate" where the nip is positioned right under the weather icon on htc home. That would be a funny theme.
You perverted sex addict, I like it! Hahahahaha
I must say, i've looked everywhere for guitar and bass themes and these are two of the nicest...simple yet effective.
I'm at work right now so I cant upload any background images but I would highly suggest some of Salvador Dalis work...very cool images he has.

True. But for those that do not have or intend on buying Facade or WAD, RLToday is a great, free option (thats why I mentioned it).

[SKN] [WIP] Minimal Theme for HTC Home/s2u2 [12 JULY 09]

Just a screenshot for now, will hopefully have it fully complete with icons and all by the end of next week. If anyone wants it as-is please request and I'll attach a zip file.
It's based on PaulDeGroot's Minimal themes for phonecanvas, icontact, etc... So all the creative idea credit goes to him for that. I really liked the style so I'll be doing a theme for this and s2u2 probably next, maybe some other apps if they're easy to skin.

I'm using the default windows theme here, but hopefully I can make a new tsk file for this. I've never made one so I'm trying. Just want my background on there and the top bar to be flat black. Anyone who can help please let me know! I have ThemeGen but it's a bit confusing!
And I know a lot of people have moved onto 6.5 or manila or whatever, but for those who have devices like mine (Titan) and have found that these alternatives are just not practical due to RAM limitations, we may just stick with HTC Home or other light plugins. So this is for them.
i'm not using the Home rt nw so wont be using this but it sure does look cool bro..nice work! Alot of ppl still use Home so many will probably b using this. will be on look-out for further themes frm you Show. Cheers bro!
Thanks! Hopefully somebody will find it useful.
Added s2u2 preview.
Thanks~~
I think that I will try it on my Prophet 1d roms
thanks again

Cool, if you do that then maybe I should make a 6 tab version. This one only really works with 4 tabs. Had to do it that way because otherwise the text was so small you could hardly read it. But if you want to include it in a rom then I'll make some icons for 6 tabs.
Great!!

Welp, I stopped this for a while because I got tired of working on it but I may pick the project back up sometime soon. In the meantime check out my M2D theme in my sig, that's what I'm using now along with the "aurora" theme for 6.1.

.. ok.. first: witch version you have tryed?? now i have some work to complete but for the 20:00 i try to solve this error...
nice, i really like this clock, first clock worth "installing" =)
What a rip off of the original clock. Title your thread as Modification of Lycox's GTX Clock.
now the clock is completly skinned by me... the v3 is now a my complete project...
nice idea, also if its just an modifacation of the existing clocks from Lycox.
But if would be honest, i think it would look better, if you use the same amount of the effekt on all 4 corners (black tips).. Looks atm something wrong and diplaced in the background. If that was intented to be so, then ignore that lines, but i would think, it would look better.

NOW I HAVE REALIZED A SYMMETRIC VERSION.. .. look at the first post if you like.. the skin now is a my complete work and not a rip af the wonderful work of lycox
YOU GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!
You just credited EC and Kamil simply because it is inspired by GTX?!!!!!
Obviously you are missing 1 party ---> Naruto Franchise.
This is crazy man! It looks just like sharingan of Uchihas!!!!
Cant wait to install them!
I've made an S2US version of this clock (v4). None of the graphics was modified at all, just made to work with S2U2 for personal use.
If it's ok with fur0n, and if anyone is interested, just ask me and I'll share it.

[ICONS]Simplified Black - with Template (also Simplified Glass & template)

The set is INCOMPLETE (about a hundred icons). I do not wish to continue the development since I don't feel the need for it.
But I still decided to release it in case any of you still want them.
For those who wants to play a little, I've included a template so you can create your own icons yourselves. (See tutorial below)
Tutorial:
1. Open the template in Photoshop.
2. Select any icon you want and open it Photoshop. If you are one of those who are using my Simplified Upgraded set, much better if you use them.
3. Copy your icon & place it over the top of the template. Adjust the size & location of your icon so as to fit the designated area.
4. Save your artwork as png and you're done!
E n j o y !
For the welcome screens you can visit this thread.
Simplified Glass & template
And if you're still up to making a glass-like icon set, here's a few and a template.
When you're done, perhaps you can post some screen shots and inspire others of your work.
Go play!
EDIT:
I have attached a bigger template for better resolution. Just don't forget to resize it (128x128 or 90x90, or according to your need). Otherwise it will eat up your device's resources.
Looks good...thanks guy...
