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
Custom boot screen

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

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

For some reason a tsk file can not change the BaseHue to 160 it always defaults back to 120, but only when you try 160. I made a cab for a workaround..

Great Job
Hey I really like the way these are coming out. Can you make some with some really hot women. Maybe that new girl from bionic woman, or lindsey lohan, or the girl from ghost whisperer.
thanks,
Just the thread I was looking for...
Hi Greyzter...
Just wondering if you do Auto themes. If so, I'll be particularly interested in a Nissan GTR or Koenigsegg CCX theme.
Don't need a separate pic for the start menu; compatibility in standard and landscape modes is all I need. Something black would be ideal with any lettering/words to be on the top instead of the bottom since I have a plug-in at the bottom of the today screen which often gets obscured. A good reference would be Badbert's Ford GT theme (Here) but with the word "GT" on the top instead of the bottom.
Topspeed has some nice pix and renders of the two cars.

Koenigsegg CCX Gallery:
http://www.topspeed.com/cars/koenigsegg/koenigsegg-ccx-ar2369/pictures.html
getting on that ..... got a few other things im working on. as im learning ill share with the forums..... thanks for the idea.... found a couple shots i like.
Nissan GTR Theme
Got a little impatient and slapped together a theme with a little cutting and pasting. There were several pix that I liked but couldn't use cuz I don't know how to do gradients and other lighting affects. After a few hours, finally got something I was happy with so I thought I'd share.
See attached to see my cluttered Today screen and some cleaner screen caps.
EDIT: Oops... forgot the most important part... the tsk... Also threw in a 320x320 that just missed the cut.
well thats one off my list...lol....... thanks for the great theme file.
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 you want to use these and need other icons, ask me on the themes Thread and I'll see what I can do.
You find these icons here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=4829217#post4829217

I agree, Need some work, but your on a good start man. ;]
I as a designer can understand if you feel bad when people tell you what they have above,
And as a fellow designer, I say you should not stop, keep looking at them, and try some different more round, glossy, vibrant edits. :]
And they will be a Thumbs up!

I'm sorry, I wasn't trying to discourage him. No one replied to his icons (to be honest i thought he just posted them from finding them from somewhere), so I was just giving my honest criticism of the icons only. Personally, I'd touch them up with a gloss background layer or just remove the outside glass square. Good luck!
I don't know if anyone noticed, but he said " found the standard winmo icon ugly and pixelated"

Though my next phone will definitely be an android phone, I do use winmo.
I use an applauncher (Androkkid)which emulates android.(see screenshots) I know this isn't Android but it looks like it so theoretically my icon pack could work for both. I'm not selling anything don't either want any donation or anything so it was just an idea. It would be really helpful if someone could tell me which icons they think work and which don't
Hi Guys,
I've made my first theme and popped it on the android market, I made the decision to charge £0.99 for it as I believe it to be worth that and I know if I saw it then I would have no qualms with paying this at all, however since releasing it around 10 hours ago, ive only had 3 downloads all of which were cancelled so im trying to work out reasons why. One possible reason I can think is that they are using the Motorola Droid, where most these don't look particularly good because of the resolution, the second is that they just plain didn't like it! I do find this rather odd though as I have included 2 screenshots.
So if here's the androlib link (http://www.androlib.com/android.application.com-nd-android-pandatheme-psimpleblack_5896-pExj.aspx) (screens dont do it much justice), I would appreciate any feedback. If anyone wants to download it for real then for today I will refund anyone from XDA developers who purchases it, just PM me your name after you have done so.
Thanks a lot for any help .
Looks pretty good to me, i take it the fuzziness is just in the screenshots? There's certainly A LOT worse on the market that have quite a few downloads, so I think you just have to give it time.
Yeah the fuzzyness is just the screens, thanks for the comment . Feel free to download if you want to take it for a spin and I'll refund your money making it free.
Anyone else got anything to add? getting a lot of views but little in the way of comments .

I would suggest making the notification bar black. The white bar does not look quite right. On the other hand, I only theme AOSP ROMS, so this may not be an option for you.
I want you to know that what follows is constructive criticism in the hopes that it will help you. If I offend I apologize, and give you full permission to tell me to piss off.
When I look at the theme, it looks nice, very clean, all the graphics work, but there is nothing that grabs my attention. It seems very "flat" and I personally would refund and get a theme that would draw me in to the screen. Having said that, I think it is really great work, that with a little bit of effort could really sell. I am sorry to say that I can not tell you what it needs, but I suggest making a few mock ups in gimp (or photoshop) and asking people what they think.
Additionally, the theme looks a lot like an iphone, which may be why I do not care for the look as much another may. The idiots on the market are always looking for iphone this and that, and thus I think it could really sell given time.
Thanks, comments noted, very helpful. The black notification bar isn't an option in this sort of theme but I'll definately be looking into ways of jazzing it up for a version 2.0 .
While I love themes like this, the only issue is that every other app installed will have a regular icon. Which unfortunatly takes away from your great work..
Yeah I recognise this, i was thinking of adding extra ones for the most popular apps (facebook, twidroid etc). Maybe this is something I'll look further in to.

That is exactly what I did. There is no way to legally theme and distribute most market apps, so just make an addition icon pack and let people apply via bettercut.
By the way, I showed this to my wife, whom is a professional graphic designer, and asked her opinion. She suggested it is way too flat, and needs more contrast. I realize that you do not want to add color to accomplish this, as it defies the point of your theme, so she suggested to do away with the symmetry. Stagger some icons, give the homescreen a look that carries the eye of the viewer around it.
Thanks cloverdale, will definately take this into account in my future themes. Currently selling ok on the market place after making a few colour variations .
I want to create a theme, as no one here seems to have the same design sense as me; most are obsessed with trends from 2004 or something, and are fascinated by bright colors and the need for everything to be big and/or cluttered. as a minimalist, i'm basically exactly the opposite. i like clean, concise, small and unobtrusive.
Anyway, if a dalented dev and I could hook up, I could design a very nice looking exterior for Android so long as he could code it all into place. I'd be wanting to skin basically every skinnable object within Android; I want a full UI overhaul. I also want it to be the best looking thing released for the OS.
To give myself a little bit of credibility, here's a mock-up I was messing around with to provide an idea of what I'd be talking about.
http://img811.imageshack.us/slideshow/webplayer.php?id=homel.png
is no one replying because it doesn't look good enough, or because no one is interested?
The design is very bland, more work on it would make it look pretty nice. I see you're aiming for a simple look yet, somewhat elegant.
looks very nice and clean but...
notification bar is half the size,dont know if it is possible to edit the size of it.
and it wouldnt be easy to acess the drop down menu.
Same goes to lockscreen,a lot to change...
Perhaps this are the reasons no dev is interested in this,but it is a nice concept...hope you can manage to get it done.

You can change the status bar size from source: frameworks/base/core/res/res/values/dimens.xml and change the status bar dpi from 25 to "x"
that was just a mock-up. everything can/will be changed to meet the dimensions of the elements to the sizes needed for the phone. and yes, it'll looks a lot better after some more time is put into it. i posted just a barebones preview of what i hope to accomplish.
You came in here bashing many talented designers and then post that? Instead of 2004, you're going prior?
Good luck, and I hope your "new" idea (given that there are quite a few minimalist themes) turns out well.
how did i bash anyone? i mean sure my comment was a little snarky, but it wasn't meant to put anyone down.
i don't see how that's prior-2004 either way, though.
Instead of asking for "talented devs" to help you, it might work out better if you spend a little bit of time to get to know the roots of android theming, and hopefully get more going than a few minimalistic mockups. Read a few how-to guides to get things rolling and when you get to troublesome .9's and xml tweaks, that might be a better time to ask for help.
As much as all of us will be really excited to see what you come up with (I mean that seriously), I really think it would be better that you get some experience going on your own first. 'Employing' people to do the dirty work usually means the end result is nothing like what the concepts suggested (I think a lot of us remember a similar situation late last year).
Good luck, have fun. I'm looking forward to the results.

This is absolutely true, most of the themes would make my phone look like a cheap knockoff. However, I don't find yours the most appealing either. Minimalistic is good, very good, but add some more life to it (again, in a minimalistic and clean way)
It kinda reminds me of this here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=662721&highlight=xperia

I do get where you're coming from and a lot of the themes posted aren't to my taste, but your design is weak. If you're going to make something so minimal that it's just a gradient fill and a font, the font needs to be something so special it can carry the whole design, and that really isn't... italics.. seriously..? It looks very dated. I think you've shown a lot of arrogance to come in here disrespecting the work put in by some very talented people, and then put forward your own amateurish design as an example of what they should be doing. You're not going to recruit anyone to help you that way.
Personally, I don't have the time or the motivation to work on full system themes without any kind of reward or pay. This is difficult, time consuming work, as you will soon find out if you make the effort to learn for yourself. I will however be leaning much more towards the minimal style in my future GDE themes, as it's my own personal preference.
Minimal is a very difficult look to pull off in an interface without looking bland, but there are some fine examples around here. Take a look at Elegance for a start. I respect that theme a lot.
Forget changing codes and such, just go to Sweeter Home and build it yourself. There are tons of themes there that look like your example.

Hey man, I just felt like I needed to give you some words of advice from an artistic standpoint.
I don't know your design capabilities, I don't claim this is your best, and I don't claim you are a world renown designer.
But every designer I do know deals with battling what other people say about their work.
We can choose to be offended, or we can choose to take it as a way of improving.
There are two words for this. One is greatly different from the other.
One is Criticism, and the other is constructive criticism.
Some of these posts I have seen are just pure criticism. (Perhaps this is why I see a whole page of posts gone but others I see here are constructively trying to criticize the work so that you may gain humility towards others works, and improve in your own.
This is a true barebone theme my friend, but I see potential in it. It doesn't matter what other's think, it matters what you think. If you ever need some help with this man, feel free to e-mail me. I am no dev, but I am a designer, and I would love to help you in the artistic aspects of this project, so that you can have something to be strongly proud of in the end of this. Let me know what's up. Shoot me a PM.
A loving word from one designer to another,

*applause* well said!
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

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

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.

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.

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...

Please treat my line just like a friendly advice, not a direct command. And if you perceived it wrong, or I sounded rude and you thought I was telling you guys what to do with your life and how to do things, well... my sincere apologies. Didn't mean to hurt your feelings.
Oh yea... and my nickname is not smodg.
Thanks!
