[teaser] ⌘⌘⌘New level of animated wallpaper for manila⌘⌘⌘
hi everyone!
I have been fired from my office as the company became the bankrupt at January.. So I got some time for starting new project (and earn some money as i hope (It will be donationware or will have a price around 1-3$)). Plz, don't be angry for that.. I just want to feed my family and me.
So i would like to show my new project...

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.
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

Please let me know of any issues or problems and also i would love more ideas about it and requests may even be met
just to be honest. its an eye sore
just to be honest, dont be an ass, respect work, no reason to mock it
looks good.. just needs some refinement

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
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'm sure you've already seen my post on the font from the zHD. If not see here.
Anyway, I don't have the expertise nor the time to make a full Zune theme. Here are some resources I made that could be useful if anyone gets the initiative to make a theme *wink wink @cacheinjection* lol. Anyway, I know at least one other person had expressed interest in this in the other thread.
I've attached the android-logo-shine.png file with a Zune gradient, and two boot screens designed as splash1 screens for now. Feel free to use them as you like, just give me credit please. I will be updating this post as I add more items to it.
Feel free to contribute some of your own icons, next up I have some media icons. If I finish my homework, they'll be up later tonight, if not then it'll be tomorrow night.
I AM VERRRY INTERESTED. My brother has a zune hd and i'm jealous
So yea. Very interested. very.
Cacheinjection is Da Man!

Ditto. Cache rocks, and yeah I love my zHD. At first I was wary of switching from carrying my iPhone to my G1 and a Zune, but the Zune media interface & the subscription service is WAY better than the iPhone media ecosystem, and they have way better sound quality. Then of course Android could kick the living crap out of any iPhone on Earth.
Also, I just now finished my homework, and since I have 3rd qtr finals tomorrow I'm gunna catch some z's. New icons tomorrow.
Very Nice! I like it.

nice to hear. Yea, I have an ipod touch and my bro's ZHD is much better. in many respects! especially cuz theres a facebook app now.
What app did you put on market that has enough downloads to get you a N1?
im workin on one for galaxy s devices... hopefully itll be up and runnin soon!
Looking forward to see your theme. Since you develop for the Epic. Also can't wait to see the icons
I'm currently changing elements on my phone to have more Zune/WP7-like looks. I posted screenshots of my homescreen in the show-off thread, but I'm about to start attempting to make my notifcation bar and tray look a bit more Zune and/or WP7 ish. I'll post whatever images I come up with, starting with my boot animation (based on OP's android_logo_shine.png).
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

Looking very forward to see the result of this and how it looks in use! Good luck from here!
get ready...
This will be released today... stay tuned!
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

These kind words are totally appreciated!
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
