Screenshots would be nice. This way people don't have to install it to see what it is
Screenshots
not much to look at but does its job!
screenshot is design view from visual studio, which is pretty much what it will look like on the device!
sorry but I do not understand that it makes this application?
Maybe it's for personal development. Nobody is forcing you to use it right?
Im just hoping people will try it out and let me know how I could improve it for everyones liking.
Edit:
The theme hav been started, for the download and more info goto the new thread at:

Thanks to everyone who is helping with this theme.
An most of all thanks to FREEKYFROGY for making my concept a kick ass theme
Hi All,
I’m Fairley new on here, so forgive me if I make a faux pas or two.
No disrespect to any other themers, but I can’t find the theme I’m looking for, so I decided to go ahead and do a little photoshopping. Please find attached the concept that I came up with. The problem is I know that I’m not the best person to do the actual themeing, as firstly being a studio engineer I spend most of my time in a recording studio, so not a whole lot of time for experimentation etc. Also I’m not the greatest programmer etc, and I think what I would like to do might take knowledge of the platform that I just wont be able to grasp.
Anyway, if anyone likes the look of my concept and would like to collaborate to make it into something to share with the community, i would really appreciate it, and would make sure i got all of the files needed to you.
Hope someone likes the concept anyway,

I like. Nice work!!
For a concept it looks pretty damn good, easily one of the better themes. If you could make this, or partner with someone who can, this would be an amazing theme to have.
Thanks alot guys, great to hear your liking it.
i was having a look at the framework.res.apk file i think and to be honest im pretty confied by it all.
If anyone can think of a better name for the theme please let me know, as i just came up with darkstar on the spot, as i was making my original post.

Amazing! I love it and hope someone helps you with it. I'm still new to android also and am in the same boat as you. I have a few ideas floating around in my head, but no time to really dig in and see whats what.
Does that clock/date/media player widget exist already or is it also concept only as of now? Looks great!
i'm not gonna lie. this looks REALLY sexy. and i think "Darkstar" is a pretty sleek name. stick with it.
I love the concept as well, but sadly there are some elements that cannot be changed without getting deep into the coding of it all. So far we're mostly stuck to just replacing images. I do hope you get something rolling with this idea..it seems slick and simple.
Btw, great taste in music :]
this looks really good. i don't see why anyone can't help make something close to it. for the dialer and the top tabs, wouldn't you just make them transparent .9.pngs? like prash said, some of the things are tricky because they deal with xml coding and what not. i still feel that if someone helped you on this, you could get somewhere close to it. i don't mind helping out on tackling the dialer with you. it would be cool if this became like a group effort .
Great concept. Hope you find time to dive into it.
The Notification Pull-Down menu and Dialer looks crazy official. I think you should call this theme...Eclipse.
pretty good theme! Good luck makin it!
Im All In Send me a pm if your really serious about this thing!

Man, THAT LOOKS REALLY NICE! Hope a full theme is released soon
I think this tray for the launcher I made for my future them would fit more to this theme. What do you think? (of course, dont look at the rest, because Im still not finished)
And, of course, I can help too, if you need me.
looks simple enough, in a good way. i could see this being knocked out in an afternoon.
i should brush up on my ps skills. i'd like to get more into theme design myself.
Lo9oks awsome hope someone makes this to a theme we can use would love to use it
Don't kill me but it looks as sleek as Apple's design. Which isn't a bad thing at all. It's love at first sight for me. Hope you find the time to complete it. Good luck
Edit: @joshuas_79, No disrespect man but I kinda like the semi transparent look of the launcher more and don't really fancy "menu" on it. But then again, it's just my opinion.
this theme does look really nice. its simple, yet sleek and all at the same time very visually appealing.
I'll put it simply. Beautiful concept.
REALLY hope someone can collab with you. Would be a hit I'm sure.
This is completely doable. Just a LOT of 'shopping that would need to happen.
What font are you using?
I posted this Idea on PPCgeeks and was told to better post it here since all the GREAT developpers are here.
What would be really cool, if some developer would mod/tweak the weather tab or the weather on home screen with women animation for sene 2.1 and 2.5.
Example:
1-Sunny - an animated swimming suit model
2-Cold - a animated women with white coat on
3-Windy - animated Marilyn Monroe with her signature pic, flying white dress
I think that would be nice and an extreme hit.
Clever idea.
Not a developer, but most of the weather apps simply use a different numbered .png file for each condition. It would be fairly easy to replace them with static images of different woman pictures. The animation may be a bit trickier...
hahaha... I like the idea
Great idea. i hope it will be done some day=)
Most of the work for this would be more graphical and skinning then actual software development.
So i moved this thread.

You're so right ! people want skin and very graphic descriptions
I can help with the image editing if anyone can tell me details on what would need to be done
Unfortunately I can't tell you anything about it, but you could ask HERE or even track down and ask directly the 2 users who made the mods you can find in post 5 of that thread. Just read a few pages back from the end.

well can be done with towolfs 3d weather... it uses the swf file for the animation so you need to make appropriate swf file and change it....
wow~i like this idea!! this is so cool
looking forward for this
Woah...
This is an awesome idea, and I can't WAIT until this is done. I'll def be following this thread. Let's make it happen.
and maybe a version for those of us that like the boy types?
Just thought I'd share this site, I dont know if anyone knows about it or whatever. It's it's pretty awesome for icons and a lot of other neat stuff to add to customizing your phone.
www.droidpirate.com
looks great so far, going to see how some of the metamorphs work on DL30
thanks
Thanks! Time to download some icons
Okay so first of all, let me just say, I have no idea when it comes to creating a theme for any platform, so nothing I post up here will never be created because I just don't 1, have the time to learn how-to and 2, I don't want to learn how to, excuse my ignorance.
However, I do know my way around photoshop, so with a spare hour at work today, I started to create this.
By all means, if someone with the knowledge wants to take a shot at converting this, go for it, just let me know before you do .
*Few more icons added!
*What the homescreen could/might look like.
It's very simple and eye attractive, looks good. i can't do anything though, same as you in that department.
Clearly this isn't going to go anywhere, worth a try though.
Sadly, I do not have any practical experience in this subject, but this topic does have a tutorial on what you need to do http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=8504851&postcount=2(the topic currently says that the tutorial is 'temporarily down..' so just keep checking it, I would assume he is modifying the tutorial to make it work with gingerbread roms) To create the battery and the white app slider background, you would need to modify the Framework.res.apk
I think this theme looks great, although I do not know the limitations of themeing in sense 2.1 roms; so may need to ask an experienced themer on which method to take, flashable.zip or Skin Chooser theme.. My best advice is to ask the guy who made the thread I linked to you, as he has converted many themes, if he has the time; and you can supply the images, you'll have a working theme in no time
I already cooked the frameword-res.apk last night, it looks odd because the kitchen doesn't theme the recent apps section so that has got the carbon black look that Sense has, I think the theme would be really nice and clean, and could be done in a variety of colours to treat each persons needs. Simple and effective!
If anyone would like the cooked framework let me know, like I said, it's far from done. We'll call it Version 0.0.0.1
Looks really nice, clean and minimal
Would like to se it finished and in some darker color - greyish
That's what I was just saying, in a variety of colours so each user could choose their own from a selection. Like I said, I'd happily finish creating this but only if it's going to go somewhere.

LOL writing while you posting
Maybe you could pm he_stheone64 about help to do this, he knows his way around theming with the new gingerbread framework. As I understand a few things has changed from the old 2.1 to the new 2.3 release.
Hope this will succeed for you
I don't WANT to approach anyone, if someone has some spare time on their hands and wants something to do, I'm sure someone will say they would like to convert this for us. All I want to know is whether or not I should finish the PSD's, VOYE VOTE VOTE

Ohh you misunderstood me I didn't mean that should approach him for him to do this theme, just as a heads up for you to get help on how to theme. My bad I misread your first post
Nah it's cool, don't worry about it lol, if enough people want this finishing, I probably wil contact someone to see if they would like to collaborate on it.
it cool dude it looks facebooky
