Gingerbread-Style Icons **UPDATED 12/23** - Captivate Themes and Apps

I created a bunch of gingerbread style icons that anyone is free to use if they please. The only thing I ask it that you give credit if you include them in a ROM or Theme. They are not perfect because I made them quickly, but they should be perfect looking on your phone. Use a program like BetterCut (QR code below) to apply these.

I will add more icons as time goes on, keep checking back.
thank to joeshmoe08 for seperating the icons initially

Can I put these in launcher app? or do I have to use adw or launcher pro?

nice! really liked the camera with deep green center.

Yes. Putting into green would be great! But like "yzlvr" said above, it would be cool to have these into a launcher app, so we can use them when we want, and revert to colorful stock icons when wanted, giving everyone the best of both of the worlds.

Two things I would request.
Not all people have photochop. Please if you could separate them for ease of use?
Also.. if you could make an XDA Icon with the same type of color theme that would be awesome!

Awesome! Could u please make a Launcher Pro one too please, if possible.

They look great. I use launcher pro and would love to use them but how? I dont have photoshop and is there a way you could zip them individually? Please!!

guys I am going to cut the image into each individual icon, should i make them 70x70 or 60x60?
Edit: I just did both. Here you go.

Thanks! I am going to extend the selection even further. I still have not found out how to change the icon for anything besides the dock icons.

You have to put the icon into each apk for the respective application.

So there is no program to do it? Someone should make that. Right now I am just creating more icons. Technically for this type of phone they should be 72x72 according to Google guidelines, but I'm making them 70x70 and they looked fine on my phone.

You can just use Desktop Visulizer, or if you'd rather BetterCut. No need to put them into the apk's for everyone when it's a simple, free process for them to do it themselves.

Desktop visualizer will allow you to only make custom icons for your homescreen, not in your app drawer I believe. Bettercut I believe requires the open home launcher I believe to customize the icon into the app drawer, I believe.

hero launcher bar

i am looking for a hero theme that has the launch bar on the bottom with 3 sections. I don't like the one with the one big bar with the arrow. I know you cant have all three buttons work but its just for looks.
Kinda the solution!
It is not a theme for any rom, so I'll work with any of them. It's more a theme for a home replacement, the GDE home replacement has a Hero theme, and all three buttons work, you can also choose the functionality of all of them and it does look pretty good.
If you want more info, let me know, I can even hand you both .apk files!

You can also check out the hero/eclair mix by pcmaniacs. You can find it on this theme section or you can search for pcmaniacs. Hope that helps!

first off, thanks
second, you cant share paid apps. that is against forum rules. GDE is a paid app
third, I already have GDE and just saw the Hero theme and applied it.
I'll use that for now. thanks
Nice..
So, was it what you were looking for? Did you like it?
BTW, for more quick, accurate responses to any of your requests, you may consider following some devs on twitter!
Peace out man.

Do you think you could post the theme or atleast the pngs you used becuase i cant seem to find the right image for the actual bar.
thanks
anyone? I just need help with the actual bar.
Well I guess I could, the theme it's called Hero Theme I believe, for GDE home replacement, I found it right on the market for free; Let me know if you're able to find it!
I think I still have the .apk file of the theme anyway!
I have already got that theme but the launcher bar is a bit too high I would like to have a more exact copy like on the other page.

Icons Abound

Here is a link to hundreds of icons from several sources.
http://www.mediafire.com/?8whos3fp8v88o7o
I came across these by accident and figured I would share...
About half of these look like they were ripped from iPhone themes, but a good pack nonetheless. Fair variety, and they are all good quality PNGs, which makes it easy. Thanks.

That works if you care about changing what you see in the App Drawer. If you only care about what you see on home screens, a much easier way for the average user is to just download Desktop Visualizer from the Market. Combined with Launcher Pro for your dock, you are limited only by the PNG images you can find or make.
It depends on how far you need to take it.

That's why we're here
Actually I am interested in changing the app drawer icons. And though much appreciated, the above post to the directions seems like a long way to go to achieve this.
Is there an easier way? I actually bought an icon theme for ADW.launcher and I love the home screen icons, but for some reason the developer made the drawer icons completely different and I hate them. I have found some icons that I like, that match the home screen icons.
Surely there must be a way to change all the icons at once instead of the above directions.
Thanks in advance for any responses.

I love that dude's set up.
Mine is minimal and simple using a black back screen with very clean and small things on the main page.
I'd like to mix it up and try something different.
For reference, here's mine:
That's Launcher Pro with Desktop Visualizer. DV just lets you make a widget that is an app button for any app with any PNG image you want for the icon. Head over to the Launcher Pro website here for a good thread of homescreens with lots of info: http://www.launcherpro.com/forum/vi...d=f659d9b40749e84b4ca91213bea40038&start=2490

I thanked you, because I appreciate the reply and posting up a link for me, but it's the images that I'm most interested in.
I'm going to search that thread to see where it takes me, but I wish there were just a theme I could bounce onto my phone with that type of layout pre-done.
I know that I'm going to get into it, not be able to make it as nice, not like the end result, and then not be able to get my current screen back to this way either.
Update: Found exactly what I was looking for and I know how to use it due to plenty of previous fooling around with Desktop Visualizer. Now I just need to find some time to go at it.
Here's the link for anyone else interested:

There are several Home Replacement apps in the market that support custom icons... Personally I use ADW as it comes with CM ROMS which works really well for me. You can also try desktop visualizer, bettercuts etc etc etc... Plenty of people here to give you suggestions on their particular favorite!
Download the zip file from the OP, unzip and drop on your SD. Different apps have different ways of changing icons, but in most cases you'll need select the icons from your gallery, not icon pack...

Launcher Pro/ADW Theme ideas

I am now working on a LauncherPro/ADW theme. My goal is to theme as many icons as I possibly can. I also plan to try and keep the people that use my icon pack as happy as I can by having all of their icons themed

So I am looking into making a simple LauncherPro Theme and was wondering what kind of icon's you guys like. I can do just about anything in Photoshop and was curious. The obvious this is that you would want a uniformed shape for all the icons. Is there anything else you would like?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I dont know what the max size for an icon is, but make it as high as possible for best quality, obviously. Other than that, I'd maybe like to see something "similar" to suave HD with that glossy type look, but biggest thing for me is as many apps as possible
Thanks and good luck! Cant wait to see what you do!
I'm workign on something right now, I'll post a mockup when I'm done. BTW one of the main reasons I'm doing this is because i hate when LauncherPro Theme's don't cover all my apps!

I like the subtle glow on the red and blue. The others seem to detract from the shape of the icon.

Does nova prime allow for larger icons on the gear?

I only have the free version even on my phone so I can't check it myself. I want to make my direct dial shortcut icons bigger. The default size is pretty small. Anybody have a screenshot of the larger icons? Thanks
you get the option to increases the size up to 130% on icon size, But I can tell you that is not much.
However, you can do what I did. I created a picture with my contacts on it, and the used UCCW to make each contact a hot spot that when pressed direct dials them. This way I am no longer limited to the size of icons or the look of icons, I create the pic I want and make it behave the way I want.
Here is how my contact screen looks, it is just one large pic with hot spots created. (I fuzzed out the pics for posting)

this is the max you can get. 130%.
maybe with a custom widget you can create shortcuts with bigger image..
Check this out... https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.preiss.ostart I have been using and love it
You can also use Desktop Visualiser from the play store to be able to resize or use custom icons.

Quite a interesting app.. nice alternative to touchwiz.
I use widgetsoid for this. Make a widget that points to an app (it uses the apps icon) remove the background and indicator and then resize the widget to the size you like. You can make a template so all you have to do is point to the app to create one.
