[Q] nexus neural live wallpaper - Captivate Themes and Apps

Hi,
just a question about this live wallpaper
do the colors and when they appear actually represent anything? or is it all just random?
thanks

It's Google's colors. Red, Blue, Green, and Yellow.

i know its googles colors, but is the live wallpaper just random or do the movements represent anything?
i dont know, from the description a look inside the neural network, i was thinking maybe like on color represented data usage, another gps usage or something?
or they represent other stuff running in background?

Standard PPC Themes in different colors

Hi,
In regards to the default blue Windows theme that comes with the Kaiser...is there anyway I can have this in red, orange, and green?
(With wallpaper in background also changed)
I like the fading wallpaper rather than the one with circles...I know I've seen all this somewhere, but just can't seem to find it when I need it.
Thanks!

[Theme] Blue WIP

Ok so been hard at work making a nice blue theme. 90% done and looking real nice. Dug alot of xml files and change alot of major system text colors, still got few more to find. Some screen shots are located here:
http://www.tigerznet.com/xoom
Things to notice
Icons are standard blue
The shadows and outlines are blue
Big clocks are standard blue/dark blue
Major system texts light blue
Descriptions a turquoise color
Running on hammerhead but suggested to use morays battery icons.
This is based on wifi model, still gotta dig up the 3g models.
Disabled text/buttons/icons still gray, left these as is for sakes of easily seeing they disabled.
Thing up coming:
Removal of Redundant battery level in quick panel.
Notification text still gray/white
Apps word still white (did change xml didnt work some reason)
Adjust icons for 3g models.
Any other suggestions from you.
Let me know what you think and any suggestions welcomed.
looks good so far

Help with theming?

Not sure if this is the right section, maybe General instead?
Anyway, I'm trying to theme ICS a different colour, some images will let me paint my chosen colour on top, but some use andom colours instead even though i have picked a colour, why is this happening? can anyone suggest anything that will stop that?
I've tried different photo editors, makes no difference
Try changing color palette from indexed to RGB, it should solve your problem.

AOKP themes

Are there any AOKP themes specifically for the captivate?
Search the market or xda for "cm9 themes" All compatible with aokp's theme chooser.

ButterCream and Dark - two themes I know.
Feel free to theme on your own and save your art - we haven't many artists here.
I like the color picker in AOKP, but I was surprised that you pick and choose each color separately for time, signal, etc. There is the hard-coded button to recall the ICS holo blue. I would love to see another button that stores a user selected color instead of copying and pasting the hex codes, although that works. And then the wireless signal is a graphic image that you cant change without flashing a .zip to modify system png and the like. I wondered if it could be coded to use a triangle with a fill color based on something from the color picker, and then lay over top of that grey or black bars for the part that should be 'off'. maybe layers arent possible? tho it appears that they are being used, and i have seen overlap of the data signal on top of the wireless bars. right? I know there is a LOT of stuff these amazing developers are working on which keeps them very busy already. These are just some ideas
I noticed looking through some of the code in AOKP gerrit for the theme chooser updates, that they started using variables instead of a hard coded ICS holo blue color. but it seems as if there is no user interaction for that color, its still a hard coded value set in a single location instead of being hard coded in multiple locations. So it is a huge improvement Im sure for themers who have to try to search out and modify every instance of those values. I would just like to see it progress to something where the end user can modify that variable from Rom Control.
It would be even more awesome if Android used a system wide style sheet setup. background, checkbox style, text color, font, font size, perhaps it could even include specs for headers, paragraphs, tables, titles, etc. but that would be WAY more than I am thinking. It certainly works nicely for web design tho.
This would then be something that other apps could also read and implement into their design as well. Then we wouldn't have to create hacked SMS and google play, and tapatalk, etc, etc, etc. to make them inverted or red, green, orange, blue, yellow, etc.
Of course having an option to over-ride those settings is cool too, maybe you want an all orange theme, but you want white on your keyboard keys. a keyboard app could have a selector built into its settings which allows you to follow the system setting or pick your own base color, or go with the developers default choice. There are a lot of great developers out there who make gorgeous apps that deserve to keep their defaults, ie. 1weather. So I am sure apps would ship with their own defaults turned on, so the user is guaranteed the experience they intended.
I do think these ideas seem inline with what google is trying to accomplish with their unified design standards.
I am imagining a day where I can change my wallpaper and then open settings, use a color picker (maybe even one that can pick a color from the wallpaper ... Then maybe choose black or white, or gradient or transparent background. Two steps, and just that simply and quickly my whole system is color themed to compliment. Then using Tasker this could even be automated for work, home, weekends, etc. LOL.
Ok iphone, take that!

System wide Style Sheets

This is an idea I have from my experience using themes on my Samsung Captivate. My experiences i describe apply particularly to the AOKP builds for that device and a few others. However the concepts are something which would be implemented at a system level and I think it would be applicable for any Android device, so I wanted to share it here in the general forum as well.
