I am working on a new iconset so I wanted to post a preview.
If you guys like It I'll work on it.
Its look nice work on it ! (btw make pls 90x90 version .)
I like it! Only thing is I'm wondering if the icon will stand up when scaled down. Not a lot of people will use it in this particular size and I doubt if the white character itself will still be as nice as it is right now.
Maybe a somewhat more bold character will be more readable in a smaller scale. But the look itself I quite like for sure!
Here is a version with a different font
Looking forward to seeing more.
hope can have all set soon
Nice job pal..

Very nice!
Progress on these beauties?
Actually I have created some icons with different sizes to test it.
Bu I still don't know how should i write the name of the app, i mea for exemple "Preferences" or just "PREF"... or something else.

Or simply may you put a white icon on your perfect black square. I think it would help some cases

Theres other text icons out there, maybe do the same as them?
But one suggestion would be FONE.

Really, use FONE for Preferences? Handy. And use CALC for the dialer then?

Props to DAVID LANHAM! He apparently designed these icons that I lifted from other various themes from iPhones to Desktops. Here is the new and final comprehensive version of Stickerface.
First person to say Winterface sucks, still ugly, etc. loses three internets. If you don't like it, don't buy it.
File in zip title "wicons_x2" is placed in Program Files/Weather/skins/bin
In addition, place the file "weather_icons" in BOTH the Weather AND Winterface skins/bin folders.
Zip file with everything is in Post #6.

haha lol personally i think it looks awsome, havnt got around to trying though
quite good icons you got their too, though personally i think i would stay with the black and white ones which seems to be standard

And personally, I'd be inclined to agree with you since the default icons also match nicely if you're using SMS-Chat, FunContact, Weather, Eye Photo and ZoomBoard. VITO does a really nice job of making all of their products uniform.
That said, it's a rather lazy choice of colors. I would love it if they would release new versions of Winterface, Weather and EyePhoto to go with the alternate skins of SMS-Chat, FunContact and ZoomBoard, which is much more cheerful.
Icons for the free VITO Weather application now posted in #1.
Tahnk you, that's fab!!!
However, can you plz post "wicons_x2" again?
I just cannot find the file.
Sorry about that. Here it is.
downloading now gonna see if it works on my touch pro. i just posted a review on this gonna have to update it with the new skin
This is awesome! How can we make our own icons?
This is great! The original Winterface icons are difficult to see in direct sunlight on my HTC Titan. These more vivid icons address that problem. Question: how did you do this? How can we make our own icons for Winterface - which programs are needed?
Thanks again.
Photoshop usually

I used Gimp which is pretty much the same thing. And once you get used to it, it's not even all that time consuming. I've taken a few cracks at creating other themes (Neon is coming soon) and finding the icons to use takes more time than it does to tweak them for Winterface. Just a matter of resizing, copy and paste. The key is saving it correctly (16-bit, R5G6B5) or you can mess other things up (the Realize theme causes the Task Manager to close the program.)
This is my firs attemp to create a full skin.
Hope you like it!
I have to do the message preview grafics, meaby tomorrow! DONE!
First you have to choose wich skin use, there 2 version of gray.bmp (you have to tray it to choose)
the spash.bmp is the same in the two zip file, peak one of them
in the HTC SKIN 2.zip theres the gray_alert.bmp, is the message preview
take this 3 .bmp files and put in ..\Program Files\VITO\SMS-Chat\Skins\Bin (overwrite the existing file, make a backup first) then restart sms-chat
HTC Skin.zip -------- First realise
HTC Skin 2.zip ------ some little change, and the message preview! (Thumbnails at the bottom, black top bar)
HTC Skin 3.zip ------ New Gray.bmp, with new button and top bar (gray top bar)
Thanks to oscarbum for his help!
is it possible to make an iphone skin with the chat bubbles?
Looks great! Trying it now...
Thank you!
WOW! Look really cool ! how s about VGA version ?

It is theoretically possible, but the bubbles would all be the same color, which kind of defeats the purpose. Plus, if the text is more than one line, it won't look very good.
Needless to say, I've already tried it.
Finally a good look for this bad looking app. THNX!
this is great, thanks for this.

this is exactly what ive been lookin for, but do you plan on releasing a black version with white font? been lookin for that ever since i found out about sms chat
What I would love to go with this is a iphone like SMS popup (see picture). Or something similar but with a HTC style. One of the main puposes that I use this for is the notifications. I love this theme!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for the theme, i'm thinking to make my own theme, what graphic editor should i use ? i can't open your file with Paint.NET
FunContact
Great Skin, Love how it makes it more HTC original. Can you please make one for FunContact?
I LOVE the black theme, but i work a lot moving around and the black background makes reading the screen hard.
Cheers,
paul
Great skin here. Thanks for sharing.

I used Adobe Photoshop to modify the image, Adobe Fireworks to put all together, and photoshop again to create the bmp
(The bmp MUST be 16bit R5 G6 B5)

Well... There's a perfect example of non-constructive criticism...
Edit: Just to expand on this a bit; as I said in my first post, if you don't see something you like, then don't download it... If you want something different, let me know and I'll try help out. I don't see how it's that fair to register on a forum just to say "not that good"... And then even spell it incorrectly.

I have a request.. Could you make this wallpaper fixed for my Elf,WM 6.5.x? The wallpaper moved upward which make it not aligned and overlapped with the taskbar.. How to fix it? (If I'm in the wrong thread,could you please direct me to the link..) Thank you..
Nice
Thanks. I downloaded 9 of them.

I take it you're using the 'old style' Today screen, and not M2D or the Titanium panel...? Unfortunately, that is a problem with the newer WM 6.5 beta builds, it started happening in build 23*** I think. I'm still looking for a solution to that..

You can switch by going to Start > Settings > Personal > Home, then switch to the 'Items' tab and select 'Windows Default'. That will enable the Titanium / CHome Panel.
On the left is the 'old style' home screen (doesn't have very much on it, but you can choose a bunch of different components for it; Tasks, Messaging, etc.), on the right is the newer 'Titanium' or 'CHome Panel':
Note: If you have any questions more detailed than this, please do a search on XDA-Dev and you'll see a lot more information..
I've already done that before.. But still the same..

The third post now has a couple anime wallpapers as well, I really wasn't sure which ones to choose... Most of them have really light backgrounds, so they don't really work too well with white text.

I love the theme, but I would like to make a few suggestions if I may. There's a few things that I think would polish this theme up nicely. Themed Advanced Launcher, Stericson lockscreen option and the changing of "menu" to "apps" on the launcher.
Let me explain that last one. I'm not really a fan of it saying "menu" down there as my G1 also says "menu" below it (on the button) and the two "menu"s do two different things. It's a nitpick, but I think "apps" is better.
I need help:
I've been the whole day working in a new theme, but I'm still not able to get what I want by Photoshop,(I guess Im not as good as I expected). so I decide to ask for help.
I need someone who can help me to make this for me.
Maybe we can make a great theme.
So, designers, show us your skills

I know, that why I like transparent, maybe not very useful, but it just a new concept. , but this glass effect is more difficult for me than I expected..
I might could help if you tell me more specific what you want.
Here are the png files I would like to "create with your help":
One is for the status bar, this should be the red topbar in the pics of the first post.
And the seond one is the tray for the launcher, I post what I got so far, but it's still not looking how I would like.
I hope you understand what I mean now...
ok i did the files for you as close to what you showed in your mockup.
statusbar_background.png:
tray_handle_normal.png: this file is 40% transparent since that is what it looked like in your mockup. it looks grey because it is on a solid background here. however when you open it up in photoshop and gimp you will see that it is transparent.
good luck
