Hello,
I work on occasion at Walt Disney World, and am almost always wishing I was there working all the time instead of my current job.
Anyways, I found an icon set located here: http://iconfactory.com/freeware/preview/epct that I thought would be great if I could create a TF3D theme out of.. But I don't have much time, nor the knowledge to do something like that.
I do have a lot of great photos from there though to use as wallpapers.
Can anyone lend a hand?

Thanks to everyone who is helping with this theme.
An most of all thanks to FREEKYFROGY for making my concept a kick ass theme
Hi All,
I’m Fairley new on here, so forgive me if I make a faux pas or two.
No disrespect to any other themers, but I can’t find the theme I’m looking for, so I decided to go ahead and do a little photoshopping. Please find attached the concept that I came up with. The problem is I know that I’m not the best person to do the actual themeing, as firstly being a studio engineer I spend most of my time in a recording studio, so not a whole lot of time for experimentation etc. Also I’m not the greatest programmer etc, and I think what I would like to do might take knowledge of the platform that I just wont be able to grasp.
Anyway, if anyone likes the look of my concept and would like to collaborate to make it into something to share with the community, i would really appreciate it, and would make sure i got all of the files needed to you.
Hope someone likes the concept anyway,

I like. Nice work!!
For a concept it looks pretty damn good, easily one of the better themes. If you could make this, or partner with someone who can, this would be an amazing theme to have.
Thanks alot guys, great to hear your liking it.
i was having a look at the framework.res.apk file i think and to be honest im pretty confied by it all.
If anyone can think of a better name for the theme please let me know, as i just came up with darkstar on the spot, as i was making my original post.

Amazing! I love it and hope someone helps you with it. I'm still new to android also and am in the same boat as you. I have a few ideas floating around in my head, but no time to really dig in and see whats what.
Does that clock/date/media player widget exist already or is it also concept only as of now? Looks great!
i'm not gonna lie. this looks REALLY sexy. and i think "Darkstar" is a pretty sleek name. stick with it.
I love the concept as well, but sadly there are some elements that cannot be changed without getting deep into the coding of it all. So far we're mostly stuck to just replacing images. I do hope you get something rolling with this idea..it seems slick and simple.
Btw, great taste in music :]
this looks really good. i don't see why anyone can't help make something close to it. for the dialer and the top tabs, wouldn't you just make them transparent .9.pngs? like prash said, some of the things are tricky because they deal with xml coding and what not. i still feel that if someone helped you on this, you could get somewhere close to it. i don't mind helping out on tackling the dialer with you. it would be cool if this became like a group effort .
Great concept. Hope you find time to dive into it.
The Notification Pull-Down menu and Dialer looks crazy official. I think you should call this theme...Eclipse.
pretty good theme! Good luck makin it!
Im All In Send me a pm if your really serious about this thing!

Man, THAT LOOKS REALLY NICE! Hope a full theme is released soon
I think this tray for the launcher I made for my future them would fit more to this theme. What do you think? (of course, dont look at the rest, because Im still not finished)
And, of course, I can help too, if you need me.
looks simple enough, in a good way. i could see this being knocked out in an afternoon.
i should brush up on my ps skills. i'd like to get more into theme design myself.
Lo9oks awsome hope someone makes this to a theme we can use would love to use it
Don't kill me but it looks as sleek as Apple's design. Which isn't a bad thing at all. It's love at first sight for me. Hope you find the time to complete it. Good luck
Edit: @joshuas_79, No disrespect man but I kinda like the semi transparent look of the launcher more and don't really fancy "menu" on it. But then again, it's just my opinion.
this theme does look really nice. its simple, yet sleek and all at the same time very visually appealing.
I'll put it simply. Beautiful concept.
REALLY hope someone can collab with you. Would be a hit I'm sure.
This is completely doable. Just a LOT of 'shopping that would need to happen.
What font are you using?
this is my theme-skin for WAD, perhaps will never be published ...
maybe put a video on its operation

is there reason why this never be public? (except getting hateful responses)
i dont use wad & dont like this theme anyway but still curious whats the idea to post this if you dont share...
well, don't sharing this is not a shame imo, but I am also wondering why you bother to make a new thread on XDA without any attention to share. How many things are you using on your phone what is shared by other people who are putting time and effort in their projects? Is that not one of the great things of this community?
I really am missing the point of your post...
Cheers,
Arnold
forget to say that is based on a skin called concept modern and do not think it public because the share could be errors or failures (no yet) and would have no time to repair for use on another pda
I have a tm.wing

I have many ideas but in WAD is difficult

icons will be icons from htc sense...
I have more ideas... but no time..
I think the theme is getting far away WM7, now..
sorry for my bad english.. google-english XD...
there is no images fake, are real
It really doesn't look like Windows Phone 7. At least, doesn't look like what was shown on MWC, but maybe skin author was inspired by some version a bit closer to final, which looked like that.

Hello!
I'm a relatively new member, but have been lurking these boards for a long time now. I really admire the amazing work some of you guys do and have done.
I recently gave my beloved HTC Hero away (to my girlfriend) and switched to the awesome Galaxy S. I was a bit underwhelmed by the standard interface though (but that was to be expected) and immediately installed LauncherPro.
After applying the OCLF by RyanZA my device runs pretty smooth now. So that's great… but I still feel that, with the amazing hardware, the experience could be a lot smoother and aesthetically more pleasing.
Check out the MiUI ROM for instance (I can't post links, please search for it on YouTube or here on XDA). That looks amazing! Fantastic looks, great performance, nice innovations (widget-management) and a seamless and fluid experience.
I'd love to see something like this for our beloved Galaxy S. Maybe someone can eventually translate and port MiUI, but how about building something ourselves?
Now I'm not much of a coder, but I do know Photoshop (I'm a graphic designer) and I like to believe I know a thing or two about User Interfaces. So I could help out with/design the graphics for this.
Is there anyone that's interested and knows how and where to start with a project like this?
I`m Interested but i think i'm not that Helpfull Guy.. I'm a noob at Java and Linux so my Qualities are not enough... D: But i can manage some other things when this Project will start.. and i'm working at my own Status Bar Icons... Maybe i can bring my Part to this Project.. Would be very Happy when i can help at such things..!! ;D
(I'm also interestet into lern about such things..! I go to a school were we are teached about those Things but we are making only nonsense at school )
I would say Start at XDA ;DD The perfect Place to start DEV things

That's great.
Too bad you can't help out with coding, but I'm interested in checking out the icons you're working on!
I see this as a great opportunity to learn a lot as well. Let's hope some advanced coders notice this thread and get interested.
Anyone else that's interested?
Hi there,
I am also very new member of this forum, so first of all "HI!" to everyone...
I started to play around with the system/themes/etc. a few weeks ago after I got the SGS (I used Motorola Milestone before). So I am definitly interested in taking part in this project, but unfotunately not much experience comes with me..
Until now I managed to build my own update.zip files to install my own apps and add some files to the system. Now I am working on "automagically" setting the APNs, default ringtone and add an app shortcut to the home screen...
Sounds like a good idea. I wish the UI had better widgets and looked a lot nicer.
I don't know much about coding but I'm into design and I'm pretty good in photoshop. So maybe I could help with the physical aspect of the UI.
PM me if anything goes ahead.
Okay so first of all, let me just say, I have no idea when it comes to creating a theme for any platform, so nothing I post up here will never be created because I just don't 1, have the time to learn how-to and 2, I don't want to learn how to, excuse my ignorance.
However, I do know my way around photoshop, so with a spare hour at work today, I started to create this.
By all means, if someone with the knowledge wants to take a shot at converting this, go for it, just let me know before you do .
*Few more icons added!
*What the homescreen could/might look like.
It's very simple and eye attractive, looks good. i can't do anything though, same as you in that department.
Clearly this isn't going to go anywhere, worth a try though.
Sadly, I do not have any practical experience in this subject, but this topic does have a tutorial on what you need to do http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=8504851&postcount=2(the topic currently says that the tutorial is 'temporarily down..' so just keep checking it, I would assume he is modifying the tutorial to make it work with gingerbread roms) To create the battery and the white app slider background, you would need to modify the Framework.res.apk
I think this theme looks great, although I do not know the limitations of themeing in sense 2.1 roms; so may need to ask an experienced themer on which method to take, flashable.zip or Skin Chooser theme.. My best advice is to ask the guy who made the thread I linked to you, as he has converted many themes, if he has the time; and you can supply the images, you'll have a working theme in no time
I already cooked the frameword-res.apk last night, it looks odd because the kitchen doesn't theme the recent apps section so that has got the carbon black look that Sense has, I think the theme would be really nice and clean, and could be done in a variety of colours to treat each persons needs. Simple and effective!
If anyone would like the cooked framework let me know, like I said, it's far from done. We'll call it Version 0.0.0.1
Looks really nice, clean and minimal
Would like to se it finished and in some darker color - greyish
That's what I was just saying, in a variety of colours so each user could choose their own from a selection. Like I said, I'd happily finish creating this but only if it's going to go somewhere.

LOL writing while you posting
Maybe you could pm he_stheone64 about help to do this, he knows his way around theming with the new gingerbread framework. As I understand a few things has changed from the old 2.1 to the new 2.3 release.
Hope this will succeed for you
I don't WANT to approach anyone, if someone has some spare time on their hands and wants something to do, I'm sure someone will say they would like to convert this for us. All I want to know is whether or not I should finish the PSD's, VOYE VOTE VOTE

Ohh you misunderstood me I didn't mean that should approach him for him to do this theme, just as a heads up for you to get help on how to theme. My bad I misread your first post
Nah it's cool, don't worry about it lol, if enough people want this finishing, I probably wil contact someone to see if they would like to collaborate on it.
it cool dude it looks facebooky

Hence the 'Inspired' in the title
hey guys...
i got a simple but somehow unusual question and i didn't know where to put it... so i thought off topic isn't the worst idea...
i little background: the first smart device i was able to afford, was an ipod touch 2nd gen... it was cool and it was cheap... but didn't have any mobile phone funktions... anyway... it was cool... but i had to jailbreak it... because i can... xD after a short time i found a very cool icon theme for ios... called glasklart... https://www.glasklarthd.dreamnet.at/about
https://github.com/glasklart/hd
then i wanted to have a smartPHONE... but i didn't have 800€... and i also didn't like the golden jail... so i bought an android... and after some time i wanted to have a different icon theme... so i was searching for glasklart for android and found an app...
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.go.launcherex.theme.kxnt.glasklart
not all apps i used had an icon, but it was ok... after some time i sent the dev an email and asked if he would add icons i would send him... i got neither photoshop nor any photoshop skills... but i can do a few things with gimp, so i though i might be able to do some basic icons, or maybe find someone who might help... idk...
but i never got an answer... i sent a 2nd mail months or a year later... but still no reply...
so now we come to the question i have:
am i the only one thinking that glasklart is the most beautiful, straight forward icon pack... and loooks soo nice on amoled screens? or is here maybe someone else, maybe with photoshop/gimp skills, who might be willing to help me creating some missed icons?
i don't know much about the license... but since the icons + templates are hosted at github i guess it must be open source... but i don't know if it is ok, to use the icons out of the android app, because there is at least a base for android...
TL;DR : make glasklart great again... \o/
