[Q] Finding amazing theme

Community,
I am sorry to make my first post a request. I was browsing through this forum the other day and came across an amazing theme/rom (cant remember which). I didn't know a whole lot about how to do what so I went to investigate what I needed to do to get my phone to look that cool. Now that I know what to do, I cant find the post that had the theme/rom. Here is what I know.
-It was in the past day or so that I found the post and I am pretty sure it must have been in one of the first pages of the captivate forums.
-It might not have been the main theme in the post, and instead been a link posted at the start (crediting the inspiration of the theme)
-There were pictures of screen shots in the post
-Its look was very metallic, almost rusty
-There was a circle segment going across one of the screens, I think it was the dock on the main screen
-very simple, dark and apocalyptic
If anyone has any clue which theme/rom this might have been, I would be forever in their debt. I would also appreciate any advice on how to search better for this...I have been at it for hours.
Thank you so much,
Dezdemona

Thanks for the reply. I do like that one, but it isnt the one I was referring to. The one I was looking at had a brownish red type feel to it.

Who knew? My browser history actually came in handy. This is the one I was looking for, if anyone is interested.

Different animations when swiping home screen?
Does anyone know what them or launcher uses the option to change how you swipe through your homescreens?
Also, when i was running COG 3.04 i had a scrollable bottom dock bar..can't seem to figure out how to get it. Couldnt find it in the options menu's.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

The reason you had a scrollable dock in cog 3.04, was because it came packed with launcher pro (I think..). Launcher pro has the option to have multiple docks. It also has different transition options between homescreens.
Another that does the aforementioned is adw.
Hope this helps!

So you are running a HTC Droid Eris theme on your phone?

That's a nice theme, I'm likeing the keyboard/keypad interface. Has a very fresh/clean look to it, I wonder if I could use it somehow..

Launcher Pro Dock config

Hey all,
Recently saw the thread about peoples home screens and saw some really nice ones.
I have a question though about launcher pro and I can't find any tutorials or solutions for it online.
In short when using launcher pro it gives you a default of 5 shortcuts on the dock for each screen (maximum of 7 screens I think)
I've seen some setups where people have replaced the shortcut image with a word (ie messages, phone, internet)
I want to do this but everytime I try to change the image for a word it shrinks it down to a set size to fit in with the 4 other shortcuts on the dock, I'd like to do it so the word takes up the space of two shortcuts.
Basically I want it to look like the dock at the bottom of this one:
img40.imageshack.us/img40/3710/snap20100911025522.png
(sorry couldn't make it a link and post)
Or at least similar, does anyone know how to do this? I'm using Launcher pro, would I need Launcher pro plus?
Thanks!

You don't need launcherpro plus but what you do need is that exact launch bar or you need to make one yourself. The way that look was achieved is that there are no actual visible icons on that bar, instead they made a .png of a bar with the text where they wanted the icons to be and then used transparent icons to actually place the shortcuts. I believe SonnySekhon has a bunch of docks like that in his theme thread and you can pick and choose one. If you can't find a transparent icon, I'll post one later but I'm getting ready to leave in a few minutes so I can't do it now.

Here is a little something special from me, i think it will help you in re-creating that home screen, its an invisible icon. Just run your mouse over it to see exactly where the pic is. Its hard to see cause its invisible . Plus a drawer icon incase you want it.
I really like it, nice look.

[Q] Icon pack with most icons?

Which icon pack has the most icons? I don't really care how they look, although I prefer a minimalistic look, but I want them all to match.
What I've also tried is remove the colors from each and every icon using GIMP. Most icons like the text app icon look very cool, but other icons doesn't look very good that way.
Like I said, it doesn't really matter how they look, as long as there are really much of them, but I prefer them in a style like these.

Check the top stickied thread in this forum.
I think it says exactly how many icons are in each pack.

Ok, I guess I'm really stupid, but I don't get it... I am just asking for an icon pack that has a lot of icons. I can't tell from that thread which pack has the most icons, except for when I look at each and every icon pack.

This is the biggest icon pack is have ever come across, there not the style you were looking for but it's a big pack, really big like 8000 big http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=796495

I have an icon file much larger than that its over a gig uncompressed about 10000 or more there are some rars in the file as well containing icons so yeah maybe more maybe less heres the url I uploaded it for you so have fun looking through it. http://www.filefactory.com/file/caf1148/n/Icons.rar and let me know if you have any problems with a particular icon... all the icons are good files on my end they all work ive checked them! And for the most part they are all good quality icons some of them are high res so they can be edited!

these widgets where can i get them ? ?

Which widgets are you referring to? Was there an image that didn't make it, or were you referring to all of the TW widgets?

I see. I haven't seen the widgets floating around independently of TW. But I recall seeing a UCCW theme that was based on it. Hold on a moment, and I'll update this post with the link.
EDIT: Found it. Here you go. Hope it helps. I know it's not quite the same as the actual widget, but it should at least give you the look.

There are a few others that match the clock style you're looking for, as well:

Thanks to Roberto's thread for indexing the UCCW themes and making them easy to find. Saved me from having to go back through all the pages in the original thread.

Here it is....try this one..

[Q] Stock BLAND Icons

I was wondering if anyone or why has NO one ever did anything with the PLAIN BLAND STOCK Icons at the bottom of every ROM that is available here and other places.
Meaning the Phone,messaging,app button,contacts,camera icons. Or maybe I missed something somewhere because i am useing ViperOne 5.7.0 and it still has the same OLD BLAND ICONS.
Is anyone or is there some where I can get replacement Icons that would at least look good with any theme.
No matter what Theme you do or install in you phone you still have the same OLD BLAND ICONS there.
This is just a thought . I dont mean harm or malace to anyone so do not take it in wrong context

Since you are on ViperOne there is a whole thread dedicated to theming the ViperOne ROM. three clicks you are there.

Here is a good thread for custom icons http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2518899
As you look through the thread you'll see other members that also make icons
