[Theme][Pandahome] Windows 7 High Quality Theme [22.12.2009] - Android Themes

Hello @all,
tonight I am going to publish my first Pandahome Theme.
I tried to let it look like Windows 7, I hope I had success
This theme took me 3 days. Many pixelwork
Well, here is a list of some Features:
-Windows 7 Wallpaper
-Windows 7 transparent Taskbar
-Windows Logo Orb placed on tastbar, shiny when pressed
-Windows 7 icons for Android Apps
-Background of drawer is transparent with blue-turquoise colors
-Clock has been replaced with a blue one, with windows shiny logo in the middle
-Delete handle replaced with a recycle bin, which is empty until you put an app onto it, then it becomes full
-The ugly orange app selection has been replaced with the transparent blue of WIndows 7(doesn't work with widgets, its not pandahomes business)
-XML-file changed to use png instead of jpg for background and drawer
Just unzip and copy apt file on your sd-card, then add and apply it in pandahome.
I tested this on my Galaxy with IK4 Firmware and 1.8? Beta Pandahome.
Works very smooth and stable on me.
PS: Theme doesnt look so ugly like the screenshots, its because of the sdk.
It would be cool if someone could help me with the digital clock in the upper right. I'm trying to move it to the bottom right, like windows, but i couldnt do it so far.
Have fun!
EDIT: There is a "gedrückt" on the second picture, it means "pressed".It's there because I posted this Theme in a german forum before.

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

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!

There already is a tasks icon in the icon pack(see thumbnail below), but did you have something else in mind?

reg66, can you change this thread's title to match the androkkid spelling so this thread shows in searches
I have some specific icon requests if possible. I'll also be attempting my own icon pack in the near future.. I'm waiting for this quarter's classes to end first.
SMS like above in the bubble, but instead of a blue bubble, a green one like the MMS.
A voice mail icon
Internet Connection Sharing
Clean Ram
MySoftReset
A lock
3 Icons for the Sound Profile widget
Sims 3 (but I can live without this one) ;x
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

I'll see how quick I can get around to make these
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..
Internet Sharing
Below is a suggestion for Internet Sharing.
With a Globe from Everaldo Coelho's magnificent Crystal themed icons
Edit. Made a new versions of this icon where the arrows stand out more

[Q] Chrome & Transparent Icon Sets

Can someone make chrome and transparent icon and taskbar sets like they have for the windows phones? I was checking out the themes, wallpapers and icon sets they have for the Windows phones and they look pretty sharp. I downloaded a transparent icon set only to find out it won't work on the Captivate as they prescribed to install it.
Drew2000 and Dinik has done a nice job over there if anyone wants to check out their work.

I'm sure we have the resources here to do something simular.
Just a suggestion.

New WVGA Lock Slider for WM 6.5

I made a new lock slider for our beloved X2. i guess its for any WVGA 6.5 WM phone. you just have to keep a black background in the right places.
with theme X2 Saturn Light this lock screen works even better then the WM stock lock slider. its nicer. the main lock slider is a Windows logo in BW when you press it it becoms in color. Its moved to the lower end of the screen so its easyer to use with one hand.
I added a new SMS notification icon that is a white envelope and when you press it the envelope opens. the missed call icon is also changed.
try it out and say what you think. remember im a noob abouth WM programing. Am a fan of WM for abouth 2 years but I have never tried to do something by my self. this thing took abouth 4 hours of my life yesterday. I went to sleep at 1AM
I dont know how to make CABs so its a bunch of files you copy/paste in the windows folder on the device, you soft reset the phone and its in action.in the zip file
in the zip package there are 2 folders. one with my icons and .cpr files and the other folder has the original files so you can go back to the standard slider icons and locations if you dont like my work by copying the original files in the windows folder and then soft reseting.
I hope I made X2 little more fun and useful. It realy lacks that.
the 4 .png files next to the .zip file are just for you to see how the icons look. the windows logo needed a little editing in size to fit in the lock slider measures but it was fun.
I dont know how to make a part of a picture transparent so the windows logo looks great only on the black surface. but if one of you can make the black korners around the win logo go away that would be grand. i will try with photoshop in time. but you will be faster im shure since i have alot of work.
18.9.2010
I have added the files for this same Lock but with transparent background (I finaly installed photoshop) so you can use it in any WVGA WM 6.5 theme you like not just the black ones.
I hope you like it.
19.9.2010
Added new email and sms icons. They are in isometric 3D.
Thanks for share it !

[WidgetLocker] Tech Bar (theme)

Tech Bar​
Decided to make a custom theme for WidgetLocker, since I love futuristic tech looks, this theme is dedicated to "Steel Blue" CM7, as I created it to go with that techy theme.
Hope you all like it, spent a good few hours on this designing/aligning etc.
I'm not sure if it will look good all phone sizes, since I made it just for my own HTC HD2 (480x800), the screenshot doesn't look anyway near as good when you look directly from the phone imo.
P.s. this theme is intended to be used with a dark wallpaper
Screeni (boo-hoo can't use img tags since I'm new):
img526.imageshack.us/img526/2710/shot000002.png
- Attached a small preview img to post
- To install, obviously have WidgetLocker installed
- Move .zip folder to "data\com.teslacoilsw.widgetlocker\themes\"
I had some messages asking where to get wallpaper, it is a live wallpaper called "mystic halo"

[THEMES and ICONS] Icons set F Black&White + template

Hi everybody!
First of all, I am using Buzz Launcher, which means that my "themes" are made following specific parameters such as the grid size, no labels, etc.
But I think that other launchers allow you to customize your appearence as well.
My phone resolution is 854*480.
I had a 720p one but had to send it back, so for now I can't work on that resolution anymore.
So for those having higher resolutions, well I don't know what the result would be on your screens. Except for wallpapers, I guess icons would be displayed well.
Before sharing my files, I'd like to show you what I've done so far and get your opinion: if you like it or not, what I could/should change, etc.
This to get a nice final result.
And obviously I won't and never will sell those resources because:
- I'm using some stuff such as photographs from other persons
- Some icons are directly made from other icons you can find on the Play Store or Google Image
- I'm here to share
To be edited later (once I have posted 10 messages and can freely post direct links):
I. Icons only
II. Backgrounds only
III. Themes: icons + backgrounds
I. ICONS
II. BACKGROUNDS
III. THEMES
Hey!
One of my nicest try so far: a panda theme! (I love pandas)
The panda is partially made from an iPhone game icon named Land-a-panda (see the attached pictures).
Those icons are for HD displays (720p): 144x144. Work fine on lower resolutions.
And I've "made" a few backgrounds too, giving quite a cool result when used with those icons.
Also, because it's quite boring to always have the same face, I just added 2 other kinds of eyes (see Viber and Video Player icons).
What do you think? Worth sharing them?
Any idea welcome
Let's keep up the monologue.
Seems not be be very interesting. Whatever, I'm sharing my work anyway.
Let's begin with the icons:
192 icons (64 app with 3 different kinds of pandas), pretty high quality: 144x144. See the sample below.
And if you are wondering: yes, it took me ages to save each file.
I'll share the Photoshop template once I can post direct links (man that's some weird annoying policy!), so that you can create your own icons without having to wait for updates (as I may not update this theme anyway).
If you give it a try, please share some photos/screenshots
ZIP file size: 3.62Mb
Note: if you find the icons resolution too high (say you want a 96px² size), you can use a (free) software such as ImRe to massively convert the whole folder. It perfectly and quickly does the job.
Laterz
Hey oi!
New icons, "copied" from a screenshot I saw somewhere (I think it's called themer, it's new and not compatible with all phones (not my X720D).
So here we go, 3 samples and the template file (PSD, Photoshop CS5).
The PSD is made as follow:
- A folder with the white pictures representing the icons (that's the part you really need to work on if you want to make your own icons)
- The icon's shadow (layer)
- The icon's color (layer), locked to the edit mode (you pick your color, use the brush tool and paint: it will paint ONLY the visible pixels).
Theme 5: Japanology (again)
The principle of this theme is simple: the background is the main deal, then there just needs to add the app and choose a transparent PNG to make them invisible.
Main problem with that theme: icons cannot be replaced, which means you must always keep the same applications on your screen.
edit: well it seems that uploading pictures isn't working at the moment. My PC or the servers, I don't know. I'l try to re-upload later if it keeps showing a 404.
Hum there seems to be a problem with uploading pictures from the forum. Even after having edited my post 2 times.
Hoho but I found a way to post links without having 10 posts: quotation (I hope you won't mind)
Click on each picture to enlarge it. See the above post for more information about how to use that "theme" (Buzz Launcher); Note that you must create your own date/time/battery widget (as in the screenshot below).

Could a moderator do something about that ?
