[THEME] Crisp for Metamorph! UPDATE 12/7

This is my first theme so please just check it out
Crisp= A nice white and ice blue theme with eclair launcher and many color and icon changes.
i will be updating it as soon as possble, high school and work make it kind of difficult.
Im not sure if anyone is even following this thread but oh well, ill write it all out anyways
Update:
Fixed the obnoxious bright blue, dimed it a little, i use my phone on half brightness, so i didnt realize how bright it would actually be!
Switched some icons around, i dont really like most eclair icons

just to be honest, i wasnt being an ass. its an eye sore, plus its NOT going to look good once apps are all loaded up. its called constructive criticism, and this theme is not even hard at all to make

if its an eye sore why don't you make your own theme. Respect the work, negativity isn't good for the dev who actually took the time to do this.

It isn't that much of an eye sore. The blue could maybe be toned down a few shades just so it isn't so... I can't think of a word, maybe blinding is a good one.
Also, on the nice side of my post, it looks good, it reminds me a lot of the Bluebird theme I used to have on my iPhone before I switched to Android. Maybe look it up for a little bit of inspiration? I know that it looked AMAZING & it is really similar to this but with the toned down blue & a few undertones of black.
I will try to find an old copy of it & upload so you can see it if you'd like.
EDIT: OK I found a copy. I will upload a few of the icons & a few mods I had made to it to look a little better. I have a killer statusbar that would go good with this as well as a little bit of lockscreen stuff you can adapt to this if you like.

This is a very good start this is how I started making themes, so guys please show this themer some respect. "Experion" is my second theme and i improved a lot so good job man keep it up!

OK here it is. I can give a little rundown too (by folder in the zip).
Battery: Has the lockscreen battery images that would work on the Stericson lockscreen and could be adopted for the statusbar. Also there are 2 images of the statusbar battery.
Icons: Obvious enough. Some icons that show what I mean about a toned down blue & shades of black. Could look really nice on Android.
Statusbar.png: Obvious again. Statusbar that can be easily adopted to Android. It has transparency so on Android it would just appear black so instead of the black to transparent gradient I currently have set up a black to dark gray gradient might appear better.
Lockbar.png: This was the bar of the lockscreen slider on my iPhone. Here it could be the background that the clock is on but I don't remember that may be hardcoded.
Here is the link: Bluebird Android.zip
PS: I don't claim credit for this whole Bluebird theme. I got it off of ModMyI.com from a user whose name I don't remember. I just changed a few icons & the lock bar among a few other small tweaks.
PS PS: Yay! 200th post

in a way
Hey this theme isn't bad, the blue reminds me of alien aqua. More power to you make a theme you like and hopefully not what someone wants you to make. Your taste your enjoyment. If someone doesn't like it, go away...if you can't find you like make your own.

Looks good, I like the color .

Hey don't let people get you down, everyone's new at one point. This is great for a first theme, I never did that much icon theming Some suggestions, try to find a good background that goes with the colors you chose. Also, try to theme the widgets. I know it's hard at first, those .9.png's can be REALLY difficult to deal with. Just keep practicing and always challenging yourself to do more and there's no limit to what you can accomplish!

One line that says it's an eye sore has nothing to do with constructive criticism.
Any theme is taste sensitive so bringing your 'constructive criticism' as facts doesn't help anything either. So please read up on constructive criticism and try again or move on.
What might be easy for you might not be easy for someone else. If it's all that easy why aren't we seeing more themes?
And there's also the time you need to put in to study how to do things and than actually implementing it. This alone should make you show some respect.
I'm sometimes really amazed at the rudeness of some members especially the ones that have been frequenting these forums like you have.
@sassyness77: good to see another theme for MetaMorph.
Just ignore the comments you don't agree with and look at the ones that make sense for you. After all it's your theme and it's impossible to please everyone. Looking forward to see where this is heading and don't let the haters get to you.

I love the white drawer tab!

Yes, the tweeter blue is a bit too bright. escpecially put against darker wallpaper.

thanks guys
Thanks for all the feedback guys, positive or negitive I didn't realize that the blue would be so bright! I'm planning on toning it down and I'm figuring out how to edit p9s as we speak it can only get better!

Updated 12/7
Hey, i just updated it last night if anyone is using my theme, I'll update it soon with edited 9.pngs, high school+work makes that difficult.
i did make a custom boot screen which i love and switched icons, the OP has all the other stuff!

Hia mate,
i agree with people its looking kool,
keep up the good work, i am so lazy when it comes to making icons, i never have any ideas. so its good to see people working on things like.
Keep it up, and do what i do theme for your self and if people like it that's just a plus!

This theme is basic but good, it's what u can expect for a first theme. I'm also doing my first theme for eclair using the cyan blue, i love the color. Good job man, we can only get better and better. Cheers to your efforts, pretty impressive for a H.S student

An Amatuers Glass Icons

Here are a few glass icons for anyone who wants them.
MY RULES!!!!!!!!!
1. Enjoy the icons!
2. refer to rule 1
Note: I cut and paste stuff, mild resizing and colouring. This is not difficult. I'm sure it can be done to a higher standard, with the right motivation.
All pngs were obtained from artists on DeviantART. Nothing is original.
http://browse.deviantart.com/customization/icons/dock/
(you may recognize a lot of these icons from elsewhere......)
IF you are not familiar with the style, around here it is refered to as ANASTASIA by DINIK
He was the first person to find all these great icons and slap them together with the glass effect(also found on DeviantART).
SAMPLE

thanks, downloading before they are removed...

You are AWESOME for posting this and starting this thread but I bet you that he-who-must-not-be-named will throw another hissy fit. I will give this a few days before he starts banging on mods' doors to close this thread if he has not done so already. If it does not get closed at all, I will post ALL the hundreds of icons that I made. I promise...and they are quite nice for a newbie PS user (not artist yet).

How did you do that so fast!
I got the original template about 6 weeks ago from the guy on DeviantArt who was using the exact same glass effect as a 150x150 avatar on a site I frequent, and had been doing so for a couple of years.
There was a slight difference in the shadowing and colour effects, but once that was removed, (done for me), it's exactly the same.
Initially, I asked him if I could use it for my avatar which he happily agreed to, but when I realised I know bugger all about PhotoShop (that's how come I had all those tutorial links from the other thread) I came clean and showed him DINIK's excellent collection.
He thought it was brilliant as well. Very well done indeed.......
And now, in 1 hour, you have just allowed me to upload a completely new icon set to my phone.
Thank you.
But I am still gonna call it Anastasia if that's ok with you...... and with DINIK as well - because that's one aspect of his work not in dispute.

He can't claim ownership of all things. The PSD did not come from DINIK.
OF course we all know that these look like Anastasia icons. Not the issue, I have used his inspiration only, none of the graphics are from Dinik's computer. This is absolutely ridiculous and childish.
He did say we could release our own PSD's.

No one is disputing what style this is. I have said many times before, the OP or anyone who shares will not be known for these icons as anyone who sees them will say it is Dinik's when really it is not made by him. BUT the point of the matter is for those of us who began using the ANASTASIA theme have to make our own icons as there had been no addition for quite a while. That is how I began anyway, my template was actually from nniicckkss who was bullied by Dinik when nniicckkss shared the glassy psd template (so actually, I am using his template which he so graciously shared). And to be honest I only learned PS, CFC-GUI, ResHacker, WinCE, etc. when I got this phone last April. But I digresss...I am very much willing to share but because of rules blah blah I can't even post cab or zip files in threads. I actually have to individually email those who requested some of my own version of Anastasia icons but I stopped because that is really a pain to do every single time.
So I will share the icons below once this thread gets traction and not closed by mods due to reasons we already know.

Ahh. the great argument.
The altering of already altered trademarked logos.
OP, They look nice.
good day.

Watch out though, nniicckkss did the same thing early on and his thread was eventually closed by the mods because D won't stop blabbing and throwing hissy fits and threatened to take his work out of XDA. At that time, I have ZERO PS skills and of course that will be a problem for me then if I want uniformity in my phone. But since I now know how to edit manila/dll files, make my own icons, and pretty much google and download for free (or pay a few bucks) really awesome PS effects, I say, go ahead and leave XDA if he makes the same capricious threats and demands. His ego just became so big that he thinks he is the only one who can do quality work when in fact it is so freakin' easy.
EDIT: I have wasted too much time on this. I am going to shut up now and just focus on modding my own phone whether or not the mods will be shared or not.

The original PSD you posted in the first post, is created based off one of Dinik's Icons. It's relatively easy to do... erase the stuff in the middle, blend around it to "complete" the image. Unfortunately for you, vgunmanga, you didn't do it perfectly and you can see that in the image below. ON the left, Dinik's original template.. on the right.. yours.
Anyway, Dinik will be relasing his icon template officially in a new thread created by him. There, you can share icons made in "Anastacia" style, using the official template. I think everyone will be happy with this arrangement. You guys get to do your own icons, dinik gets to back off.

[REQ] Primary Colors Theme

Hey guys I'd just like to make a request for a theme made up of contrast colors like mirrors edge or the movie hard candy. I'm a huge fan of the colors this phone can produce with the vibrancy of screen, and that being said I can't stand all of these themes that dull the colors down, remove them, or just use straight black.
It doesn't make sense to me, I bought this phone for the Super AMOLED Display why waste it with just a rich black color?
Anyone up to the task? I'd be willing to donate, test, etc.
Thanks in advance.
EDIT: So it appears I'm a moron and I actually didn't mean to ask for "CONTRAST" colors because that's pretty vague and well quite honestly I was looking for a different word, I think it may have been Primary. However I guess the colors I would be looking for in this theme would be maybe something along these lines.
White status bar with red icons like signal wifi etc. as well as blue, green, and yellow accents here and there, white and red being the main colors though.
Examples of the color scheme can be found here: http://www.videogamegirlsdb.com/Images/Mirror's_Edge/Faith/Faith_ME_02.jpg here: http://www.pcdoctors.co.za/e107_fil...17_FT0_games_mirrors_edge_parkour_013696_.jpg and here: http://xbox360media.ign.com/xbox360/image/article/900/900446/mirrors-edge-20080820034731113_640w.jpg

Are there any themes that another phone that is close to what you have in mind, or some graphics the show what you have in mind? I posted a new idea here. I might be up to the challenge

Updated the main post with more/correct information

Throwing this back up to see if there's any takers. A theme like this would be greatly appreciated, and I'd be more then happy to donate.
I know Avalon was just ported but it's lacking the colors I desire.

I absolutely agree with author. Stop making black and white themes that lack of color. Human eye can see colors. Fascinate's screen can show those colors. I want to just glance on battery icon and based on just color of it figure how much charge left. I don't want to recognize the shade of gray. Colors are very important in human/computer interaction.

Ha ha thanks for the support hopefully someone will answer my prayers soon

ya know its not exactly easy to port a theme...let alone freaking make one....stop telling people who work on these things what they should/shouldnt do
learn to do stuff on your own and put together the exact thing you want

Before I say anything, I respect you and your work nitsuj17, you put a lot of hard work into porting and making themes for our phones and have increased the enjoyment I have with my device...
That being said there's no need to be a jerk off, no one here is telling any themer what they have to do. I made a request and said my opinion, an opinion in which we are ALL entitled too. If you don't want to port a them or create one don't even bother going into a request thread just to spite those interested and be a smug asshole. I wouldn't ask for someone else to do the work if I knew how, I can't use photoshop for crap and by the time I learn to be decent enough with it to make my own theme I'll have moved way beyond the fascinate. I also offered to make a donation and sure $20 dollars probably isn't much but it's probably more in one single donation then you'll get for that purple theme you made.
This is a community where people go to, to learn, ask for help, socialize, and share their work. I didn't ask you specifically for anything so why you feel the need to come into this thread and tell us to do the work ourselves is beyond me. I'm sorry if anything I said made you dislike me, but that kind of behavior over a mere request and someones opinion is unnecessary.

Uh, did you even read smodg's post? He was being a ****. Nitsuj didn't explicitly respond to you, and I think you owe him an apology.

Smodg's post was his own personal opinion which he is also entitled too. He didn't demand anything from anyone therefore not offending anyone.

I don't mean to offend anyone, I feel that everyone is entitled to their own opinion. I respect Nitsuj17 and he does phenomenal work I won't argue against that. I just feel it was uncalled for to respond so poorly in a thread that wasn't directly calling him out or anyone for that matter. You also do awesome work jspidah and I'm sorry if you feel I'm out of line...

Also nice port of the JAMT theme, can't wait for white to be up and running, I'm using Avalon but the DJ05 version still has work to be done.

Telling us what to do.

In theory, yes. However not really... either way both of them were out of line. As well was I for jumping to assumptions and not thinking my response through more clearly. As well as as not knowing he specifically meant that one particular line of text from smodgs post...

dd, i wasnt refering to your post...requests are fine...i was refering to the quote i referenced

Need artist to form my ideas of an icon set!

Hello
I've been searching for a specific sort of icon set for android apps, but haven't been able to find it. My idea is to have an icon set of stickies / post it´s in different colors, angles, sizes, roation and with either text, drawings or text and drawings for the icon itself.
To give you a better picture of what I'm imagining I've found some pictures to illustrate fractions of the idea - "combined" they kinda look like what I imagine
Hope you can help me or guide me in the direction of something alike !

there is nothing like that...Have to make them...

Seems simple enough to make, I've actually worked on something like this before but never finished it because I didn't really imagine myself using it. I probably still have my resources gathered, and could materialize it for you - but be warned that I'm not a professional and the amount of time I have to work on it is limited. If you want to work something out, send me a pm. There are better designers out there, so if you find someone else to do it I won't be offended.
I'm not saying I suck, I'm just letting you know I'm not the best. Your idea is fairly easy to implement, so it shouldn't take a professional. Anywho, just let me know.

Be my guest ! I have an idea of them in a homescreen setup, where the wallpaper is a vintage white polished fridge (like 50's kind of style) up close and then with all the post its apps *Haven't been able to find such wallpaper either tho :-(

well
I like the idea and could probably pull it off... the only thing bugging me is the random post-it rotation... if they could all face the same direction i'd do it...
but otherwise...

ok
So after much thought i decided to do this set... without compromise, different colors and positions... this is the most logistically challenging set so far...
I hope there's a demand for this because its gigantic work

and its coming, with the ability to choose the color and position of every icon. For example, lets say you want the facebook icon, you'll be able to have five choice for it... This is going to be a lot of icons... trust me.
I hope there's a demand for this because its gigantic work

Glad you got Phlash on this! For one, I'm super busy right now and don't have the time.
And Phlash is an amazing artist! I remember when I first came across Tha Icon months ago, I used those icons for at least two months straight!
He'll do a great job, you won't be disappointed

Been working on a MAJOR update for Tha Icon for the past couple months... maybe tha will win you back!

I've actually been thinking about buying a couple of your newer sets. They look really nice. I set a monthly limit on how much I can spend on my phone - apps, dev donations, etc. If I don't, I'd be broke, lol. It resets on the 20th, so I'll probably buy a couple next week

[Icons]Triangle Icon Pack

re-doing icons right now, i was not happy with the way they looked sorry for any inconvenience...

some feedback would be really appreciated

I'll give 'em a go
These look great, good job I saw pooley's cross icons that look like "masks", like holes in the wallpaper with icons behind them, these look like a cool interpretation of that :good: I'll mess around with them, see what I can come up with and give you my thoughts.

pooleys icons where main inspiriation, thanks for feedback

I really really love the triangles! The only thing I would suggest is making them a little bigger or flipped just so you could see more of the icon. Also, I liked that they weren't inset. I think that looks amazing! But they were great the way they were!
