About 5 months ago, I had the idea of creating a site strictly for themes for rooted Android phones. Of course, I did my research and there are a few out there, but none of them had the organization or information one needed about any certain theme. So, I went with my idea and now today, here I am with the initial design of my latest project, Central Themes.
The way I see Central Themes is a place where developers can sign up for their own developer profiles where they will be allowed to upload their themes with screenshots, features, descriptions, etc.
Now, while users will not be able to sign-up for their own profiles, they will be able to comment and leave their feedback on themes on the website.
Now, why am I posting this here? Simply put, I need your feedback and who better to ask for feedback than the users of the themes and the developers who create them!
Right now, all I have are the initial designs and that's where you guys come in. Check out http://www.centralthemes.com/feedback and tell me what you think!
What features would you like to see added, what other information needs to be put on the theme pages, would you like forums, etc, etc, etc.
So, please, feel free to send an e-mail to the address on the website or feel free to leave your constructive criticism in this thread.
Thanks,
Travis James

Okay, so here is my goal. (MODS, if this is not where you want this posted let me know)
I have setup a site at http://android-look.co.cc/. I love XDA's forums (sometimes..), and wanted a site that had all of the themes for Cyanogen's mods and Metamorph is one place. I have posted numerous themes to the site all organized by theme type.
I have unlimited bandwidth and unlimited space available and would love to utilize it.
I am willing to allow developers to post their own pages and updates too.
Most developer's pages link right back to XDA for screenshots and installation instructions.
If you are a themer and are interested in hosting your themes on my site, please sign up and email me. I will give you moderator access which will allow you to post and edit content.

Suggestions and input is always welcome. If this is something the community is not wanting, then I will not continue the project.
I am restaurant manager and have limited time. Until themers get involved, I will only updated 1-3 times a week.

That's fine. Fixed. I am not really interested in maintaining this site. I am hoping that the theme developer's will use this site as free hosting (instead of those terrible file-sharing sites). If you are interested, please let me know.
Hi there,
I just started a new website at http://www.androidheroes.com, which will focus on Android Apps and the overall Android ecosystem.
I've decided on a feature, that each friday, I would like to do feature on a single app, to help gain some publicity for the developer, at no charge.
As a software developer myself, I know how important publicity is, and I want to allow developers to use my site as a tool for just that.
I don't know if this is against forum rules, but I quickly checked, and couldn't really see anything.
There's a few criteria to be met:
App must be complete and released on the Market.
Submission must include a 638(w)x300(h) image to be featured on the front page.
A QR code and link to the application must be provided.
No more than 500 words about the application, including summary, functionality etc.
No more than 200 words about the developer, including profile, homepage etc.
I am aware that Android Heroes is a new site, but with features like this we hope to grow our user base rapidly.
Please send all submissions to MOD EDIT: REMOVED EMAIL, I will chose the best submission and feature it tomorrow (Friday 25th).
Thanks,
Chris
Go take a look over at DA, under the categories. You won't find a single category for our dear little Andy. Nope, nada, not even a wallpaper section. Of course iPhone/iPod has had its own section, which you have to expect.
But just take a look here at XDA, and you will see a wealth of talented individuals making amazing designs for our little devices. So why no love for Android? Its not like it hasn't been suggested. I first put in the suggestion back last August, and again a few days ago.
There has even been others suggesting Android at least get a section in the wallpaper category. And i think this would at least be a good starting point. But with the wealth of customization options for Android, DA seems like the perfect place to post all your wallpapers, icons, docks, and themes. There needs to be a whole new slew of Android based categories on DA.
So head on over to the link below; it will take you to Moonbeam's forum for posting new category suggestions. If anything at least post a +1 to the comment I love (I'm 'hornsholdmyhalo'). Or post your own comment about what should be added, and why it should. Lets flood her with the Android love
TL;DR - No Android categories at DeviantART, Go to link, post there should be.
And yes this is my second time posting this. She closed the old thread, so its time to show Android that amazing support once again.

Hey everyone, just wanted to make this thread for anyone interested in getting some custom work done for a signature, wallpaper, logo, app icon, etc. I'm a freelance artist with a degree and have 10+ years of combined "digital art" experience as I like to call it. I am not trying to sell anything here, just doing this out of fun and to give back to the community so DO NOT EXPECT DEADLINES! However, If you need work done for commercial use (app icon, etc.) and have a deadline, we can negotiate through G+ as far as pricing goes.
P.S. If you are an app developer and like my work I will be more than happy to make revisions or updates to work I do for you as needed.
IMPORTANT
I am not taking requests directly from this thread, I am making this thread to initially gauge some feedback on people's interest in getting some work done and will have a reserved section under this post where I will post a link to my G+ Community where you can join and make requests.
This will make it easier for me personally to keep track of everything and stay organized.
More info to come on the G+ Community page (pending feedback from the XDA community)
Thank you if you took time out of your day/schedule to read this!

Hello guys, I hope I will not be violating any rules. I would just like to inform the community with our mobile. It's been in the playstore for a while but have no traction yet since we have not focused on marketing it.
It is called Makeapp. It's goal is to empower everyone to be able to create apps for hobby, business, etc.
We know that the UI needs improvement at first glance as well as user experience during creation of apps. With it's current version, we have already used it for providing several apps for a few clients such as an HR mobile app, delivery app, mobile dashboard, several e-learning apps, etc with few to zero coding. With these even business owners and non techy people will be able to create their own apps.
Hope you give it a try and give us feedback and ideas on how we can improve the product.
We are not yet sure in open-sourcing it but there have been discussions.
Here's the link if you are interested.
