Some people over here made some nice themes for WP7 and I made in Photoshop some additional .png Icons to use for your favorite programms and games. Of course you can use them to make your own theme as well as long as you won't use my work for commercial work and when you release it, please mention my name. It is free but it is always nice to read a comment of course.
Also I made myself a nice blackish WP7 theme for during office hours which has no animations or anything, just the basic which looks stylish for at work or customers: You can find it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=655591
EDIT: 28-03: As it now really takes serious time, and it is over 10,000 times downloaded in total I created a donate button as signature. If you want to give me a beer, I am very happy with it;-)
VIDEO Theme modified, sorry for the little watermark in the middle, I had to convert from .mov to .flv for upload:

For the home icons, you need to change the font of the unread messages to font 36 and place them in the right hand top corner, it looks great.
29-03: Here 55 High Quality Icons black squared. You can use them in a application pages or just replace the home screen ones of your favorites. Click to enlarge (if you want to see them bigger (50%), click the magnifying class when imageshack has opened the file, that way you see the quality the best, but still, it is 50% of the real size than)
As the zipfile is to big (8,7MB) to upload here I putted them on mega upload: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=E6DIZNOW
As I can't see how much it is downloaded please put a comment in this topic

wow, nice work!
I have much idea for this skin but I will integrate this icons now :d
can you make a game background page 2 and 3 for add game because a lesscro background is not empty
thanks you
well, I tried some backgrounds, but with all this big game Icons, the background is nearly gone of course. Here a low resolution sample of something you can do to make it not to crowdy...
Other idea is to make the game shortcuts the same as the programm shortcuts, than a nice background will look good.
Cheers,
Arnold

To make it a little viewable, please don't use this topic for questions to LeSSCro and his theme as he probably won't read it anyway. This topics is just for Icons you can use for this theme or other W7 themes. I didn't develop the theme, I just photoshopped some icons for it Thanks!

music favorites
I don't know how I can use the music psd to make the music favorites, looks cool, can you give me a hint, please?
UPDATE POSTED in POST #2
your games and a few others are added to post 2, check them out.
About the music .psd file.
Do you have photoshop? With that programm you can open the file, change artist and song, save as a .png file and put it on your phone.
Than add widget in the theme, set this .png file as the image.
by "Script on tap" add " choose "play a sound file", change sound files to all files in the top and search for your .mp3 song on your device.
Select OK, and now in " Script on tap" Change "Play a sound file" to " Launch a program". Save and there you go.
You have to change it to launch a program otherwise he would not play the song. When you tap it Default Windows Media Player opens and he will play the song. Just close the Media Player, the song continues and you can go on working with the Lesscro theme ;-)
Good luck.

Arnold

thanks! If you are interested, I posted yesterday in my icon/wallpaper topic for these themes how you can set S2P player in it directly.
Feel free to use it, because it is working awesome!
What kind of coding do you need more?
Cheers,
Arnold
Thanks ,I'll go have a look
Good to have a VGA wp7 theme!! Thanks..
Edit : Please make the animation a little(x2) faster..
I'll see what I can do.
great theme, few changes i would like to suggest.
1.) add another option at the bottom of the home screen for email.
2.) in the scroll menu have the icons transparent like the main screen in stead of blue.
3.) Get rid of xbox live (its just a theme) just call it games.
4.) on the main screen where the clock is add the weather there
5.) can you let us know what is working and what is not, that way we won't get any surprises and will be able to fix some of the issues
For whoever tries to convert this wvga can you combine two of the pages from the image, the image that has pictues/phone and the other one music + video and games. Like have that as one long page so we scroll down to get the bottom dunno if that is the case with the vga version.
Hey,
I made a mp3 player-ish page in WAD2 which I now use.
It's better than the last music things. Costed me like 2 hours but it works fantastic using S2P player in background. If you want, feel free to use it in your theme.

The first post (#101)
Cheers,

dude amazing just tried it on my omnia and it worked just fine. The only thing it needs to fit wvga is add to more tab at the bottom of the screen and in the sub menus like game bigger font.
1.Thanks to all the replies, I`m good at graphics not coding for WAD 2, feel free to change the theme as you like, I have no problems with that, as long as you post the results here in XDA (see this theme as open source)
Mostly all pages have to get shortcuts to files & folder. Anyone can change the layout as he pleases. Grids also have to be added or altered.
2. Arnold ,once again very nicely done , I'll go and have a look.
The fist S2P script worked great so i'll surely use this again
Beautiful theme!
1.Currently busy with game page & office layout and will post as soon as possible
2.Testing Arnold's music script
3.Replaced game icon ,if someone wants to change clock and weather they are welcome to it.
really nice "deviation/varient"...
WP7 is not out , lot of user are already boring... boring.... So funny...
You got a nice back stylish concept.... kee it up good work...
Where can I get some high resolution gtab wallpapers? What resolution do I need?
It seems like you'll want 1024x1024 since the device can be rotated. I just did a Google Image search with 1024x1024 as the parameters and found all kinds of stuff. I just got my tablet yesterday but it seems like it's working well.
You should try my new "Bouncing Clock" Live Wallpaper that I just stuck on the market today!! I'm loving it on my G-Tab and Nexus One right now.

Best advice right here.
If you find they look blurry on your GTab, search the market for an app called "Wallaby".
Also Solar Wind and 3D Starfield are downright purdy live wallpapers that run smooth as silk on the Gtab.

Good advice on Wallaby! I just grabbed it tried a couple of wallpapers and it definitely helps.
Ok, I am beyond frustrated. I am rooted w/Vegan and had zero issues doing that...but getting a wallpaper to actually look like it is suppossed to on my g tab...well that is a completly diffeerent story. I have tried the 1024 x 1024 as well as the 1024 x 600 options. But everytime I find an image I like from google, open it, hold down to bring up the dialogue box to "set as wallpaper" it takes the image and blows it up! It never looks like the image I found from google. I have also saved them to the gallery thinking that the cropping would help. Well, no dice! What am I missing? What am I doing wrong? I am bored by the plain color backgrounds that came with the Vegan rom...can anyone help? Thanks!

^^^^ Multipicture Live Wallpaper (app) allows you to set wallpapers properly. Thanks to Shadowhawk2020 for bringing this app to my attention. Even Wallaby did not work properly, so MLW is the only way I know of to set wallpapers properly on the gtab.
EDIT: OP - try seaching the market for HD wallpapers and Filke HD wallpapers.
EDIT2: Check this post out for what sounds like another app to help get wallpapers scaled properly: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=13117070&postcount=361

When you go into your wallpapers in flick ur pics, tap on the image you want on screen 1 first and a little #1 will show up on the thumbnail image. Same for screens 2 and 3. Screens 4 and 5 if you have them. I you assign more images than screens you have available it will rotate through them in order when you swipe from screen to screen.
EDIT: It seems that I told you wrong above. I assumed that was the way it worked. I had only 2 images assigned in mine and image 1 would show on my center screen, while image 2 would display on all other panels. When I just tried what I told you above, it randomized the images displayed for the individual screen backgrounds. What I mentioned above may be a good feature request to ask of the dev.
EDIT #2: I have sent developer an email regarding this and have pointed him to this thread. Hopefully he will respond soon, either via email or by dropping in on us here. It would be nice to have him here with us to find our specific needs for our tablets.

Hi All,
I'm Francesco, one of the Flick ur Pics developers
I'm glad to join you in this great forum.
Flick ur Pics allows to choose up to 9 images from your gallery and it shows a random picture when you change homescreen (or when elapse the refresh time, if selected).
Actually you can't set exactly an image for each home screens (i.e.: image1 in the homescreen #1, image2 in the homescreen#2), but we already investigated this feature and if there's a strong request, we'll be more than happy to add it as soon as possible.
Best,
Francesco

Why only 9? I have a collection of hundreds of images that I would like to use, and would hate to be stuck to only 9. Especially since I can't get multipicture live wallpaper to install, so your app seems to be the only option I have.

Hi Francesco,
Im very interested in the one wallpaper per page. I have brought this up in another thread as well. Someone had told me to try flick ur pic but I too found it wasnt setup this way. I think there are a lot of people who are looking for this feature. It works best when you have pages set for certain things. Like a movie page, a games page, a news page, and etc. That would be AWESOME!

Francesco, so glad you could join us. I am sure you will find lots of people here in the gTab forum with several ideas to make Flick ur pics the best wallpaper app for this tablet. I am yet another that would love the ability to set images per screen. Of course you already knew that from my email.
Once again, really glad that you decided to join us. We are glad to have an active flick ur pic dev willing to take the time to get involved with the gTab community.

This is what I’m doing for a landscape orientation with a wallpaper that correctly "scrolls" from left to right and is not distorted or zoomed in on (NON HONEYCOMB ROMs ONLY!!!):
Fist download and install the app "Wallpaper Slideshow" from the market (free). You’ll use that to set the wallpaper (or wallpapers, as it will automatically switch between multiple at intervals you desire. If you want it to show just a single wallpaper, just put that single picture in the folder you tell it to read wallpapers from.
Your wallpaper’s resolution should be: 2048 x 600. To be clear that's a width of 2048 and a height of 600. You may have to crop, pad and/or otherwise resize your image.
Using Wallpaper Slideshow lets you use landscape images in their native resolution (aka not cropped) that are scrollable. Wallpapers in portrait orientation are zoomed in on the center of the image and are scrollable as well.
Setting the same 2048 x 600 wallpaper via the Android (2.3.7) interface does the opposite: portrait looks clear and is scrollable, but landscape must be cropped and is displayed zoomed in, usually off center and extra pixilated. Since I primarily use my tablet in Landscape mode I think I’d rather have the landscape wallpaper looking sharp and clear.
Other apps allow you to set non cropped/zoomed images of the Gtab’s native resolution of 1024 x 600 but usually don’t have any options allowing them to be easily “scrollable”. Wallpapers that don’t have any transaction effects look stale and desktop-y, IMO.
I’m using Cyanogenmod 7.1 RC, but everything should work the same on other non-honey-comb ROMs.
You can use images with a width resolution that's smaller than 2048 and the app will still set them up as scrollable. However, it will zoom in on them the further and further you get from 2048, making them look more and more pixelated.
One more thing, if you have USB storage turned on and you images are on your SD card (internal/external) your wallpaper may not rotate or scroll correctly. Once you turn it off they’ll be fine.
Pics show the same image file as the wallpaper.
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):

- 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"
Tapet is incredible. It automatically generates random wallpapers based on "patterns" (the overall style for each wallpaper). It retains the instructions to re-generate each wallpaper, and makes it easy to save and share these images. As far as I can tell the developer has no issue with sharing these. These aren't the best, they're simply my favorite among the 250 most recently generated. I also have it set to show some patterns much more than others, and I've turned off quite a few patterns. It can do SO much more than this. Feel free to dump your own!
Enjoy!
EDIT: I hope this is the most appropriate forum. These are made specifically for the Nexus 6P.
Very nice. Thank you
thns
nice work
those are killer wallpapers brahh!! thanks for sharing
Tapet is one of the best apps I have found in a long time. Coolest thing is that you don't have to download anything as its all "generated" but the beauty is the use of shapes and shadows to make it look good. I ended up buying the paid version just to show my appreciation to the developer for his idea and work. You can setup pre-defined interval to change wallpapers automatically or by placing a tiny (1x1) widget on your home screen to trigger randomize wallpaper generation.
Any ways, here are some of my favorites. Hope you like them.
