hi all,
new "qa_layout.dat" for color background in spb mobile shell panel.
demo background for portrait (vp_bkg_now.dat) and landscape (vl_bkg_now.dat) mode included.
UPDATES:
10.01.09 - color background for submenus in landscape mode (new feature/bugfix).
08.01.09 - color background for clock and weather submenus added.
07.01.09 - color background for (nearly ) all menus.
note:
my "qa_layout.dat" - templates are using the seperator2.bmp (image) and seperator2_m.bmp (alpha) for color background images (instead of the grayscale-background class).
if you want to change your background: read the tutorials for the "non panel"-version of spb-mobile shell (Tutorial). and use my "qa_layout.dat" instead of the original version.
have fun,

@tarnam: fine! i think we should collect all the new backgrounds and skins in another post. just start one and upload your work.
But the files was posted in another post???
Since TF3D doesn't support landscape and slows the device down too much - for my taste - I started customizing my SPB Mobile Shell Panel. Works great so far and can publish my Manila Skin in the next few days.

which menus do you mean ? did you use my updated "qa_layouts.dat" ? because in my first version i missed some menus. also i can provide some basic infos about customizing the menus.
i work on a new full skin (also new buttons an other elements). if the skin is ready i can provide new xml-templates and the source-psd files for the new skin.
i would write a short tutorial but i have not much time in the next few days. i hope i can provide an short-guide in a week or so.
- QuadWord
Thanks QuadWord for your excellent work -background works perfectly and looks great (although not all screens in landscape mode have the background -eg Programs etc).
Your file and link to the tutorial has allowed me (an absolute noob) to create my own easily -many thanks again!
Will post on the "Show off your X1 -Post your home screen" thread

@jcsxda: thanx for your positive feedback.
i will look into the submenu issue while i am working on my new skin.
edit: seems to me the submenu backgrounds in the original steel theme are also missing in landscape mode ... can anyone confirm this (i.e. if you click tool, settings, multimedia, internet ect.) ?
edit2: it is a bug in the original skin (the "steel panel" is also missing in the landscape submenus).
i fixed it for the color version. chrome.zip is now updated.
have fun,

hey QuadWord, that was exactly what i meant. going to update my skin, now.
thanks a lot
Works perfectly -many thanks once again!
I'm wondering if there's a way to change the colour of the "glow"? (indication of unread email, and unread SMS, missed calls...)
It is light blue right now as per the original ...I can see glow.bmp and its glow_m.bmp in the .dat files but its not light blue so I'm guessing that changing this glow colour is not done via the glow.bmp?
Any ideas on this one?

nope ... the blue glow comes with the icon bitmaps.
if you click on the clock to get to the alarm screen you can see the glow directly between the alarm timers and the big clock. i guess this is the glow.bmp image.

Hi! My first job.

I want It transparant.
Also when I chance tab I want to see my wallpaper Instead off the black orriginal wallpaper.
Can anybody please help me with this problem?
Thanx in Advance

Here's a cab to display the image from your homescreen on all the tabs. As for the transparent slide check the customize post couple different types in there.
This no curtains cab will take care of the invisible slider that you want.
If you have the original TF3D (manilla), then it will also make your top bar transparent.
If you have the TF3D2, then it will only work for the bottom slider.
Good Luck.

A snapshot of the new icons
I think they look very good on my phone. coming tomorrow..
New Icons for Androkkid "TransparentFrames" finally!
These new Icons should work better for those of you who have like me found the standard winmo icon ugly and pixelated.
I have always thought that some of the IPhone's attraction was the beautiful icons that were uniform in size and shape. So I made my own for Ifonz (based on other people's graphic work). When Androkkid came along I loved the scenic wallpapers you could use but I thought the beautiful scenery of the wallpapers became too cluttered with the IPhone style icons and that the square icons ruined the effect of the beautiful wallpapers.
So these new icons are designed to preserve a uniform style and at the same time be better integrated into the "scenery" by using transparency.
I hope that some of you will have a look at these and tell me what you think
PS If you resize these, they will not work. If they are resized by Androkkid they are fine.
If you want to use these and need other icons, ask me on the themes Thread and I'll see what I can do.
!!!!IMPORTANT!!!!
I HAVE MOVED ALL ICON DEVELOPMENT TO THIS THREAD
New!!! Golden Frames
For those who really want to pimp up our phones
here are some Screenshots
The theme used is Teacher's Gold which you find below with the icons
More Screenshots
and even more
the icon files
Finally the iconfiles!
Please consider to try them out, I don't think they are as beautifull as some of the Iphone like icons, like the ones made by bluemetalaxe or Stereo's Leopard, but when you see them glide across the scenery in Androkkid they feel much more integrated into the scenery than the Iphone like icons which leave kind of a square hole in the scenery, however beautiful they are. So what do you have to loose, give 'em a try:
Edit have added new iconfile today 15/12-09 they are now checked out for "white and black" holes and should be okay

Transparent Icons
These look nice, thank you very much! Any chance you could add a couple more icons to the package (96x96): SMS, Voicemail, Calender, Missed Calls? Or, just tell me how to make these myself and I'll take a stab at it, there's a few web icons I'd like, too. Thanks again!

I'll gladly tell you how I made these, but first here are some suggestions for icons, but what do you mean by an icon for "missed calls" In Androkkid you get a small red circle with the number of missed calls you have. If you think about something else give me a hint
Hope you like these

What is problematic with winmo is that it doesn't support "white". In an icon with transparancy, pure white will show up like a black hole in the icon so you have to substitute white with another light white-ish color.
Another problem is this: When a graphic program like gimp or photoshop compresses a png to a smaller size. it conserves the smoothness of the png by making semitransparant pixels, these are not supported either and show up like white holes in the icons.
If you just index the png it will avoid the semitransparent pixels, but it will scale down with a very crude and pixelated result.
My way around this is to put the compressed png in a frame filled with a very nondescript greyish color. Then I have to eraze all the grey color and decide pixel by pixel which pixels have enough color to let them remain.
This is why it takes so much time to resize these icons. I have to do this every time. In the icon files I have uploaded you can find both an empty and a filled frame.
If you want to try this for yourself you are very welcome to do so but remember that you have test each icon on your phone to find "holes" before you publish them.
PS I haven't tested the last batch of seven icons yet but I will test them before I publish a zip file with extra icons.
PS Gimp is a fantastic graphic program which you can download for free here
Best of luck
Missed Calls
And here's a missed calls icon in three colors
Icons
These all look great, and wow that was fast! By "missed calls" I should have put "Call History" or "Call Log", but it looks like you got the gist with the icons because they're perfect! I'm probably pushing my luck, but maybe a "Tasks" icon? It's the only request I can think of off the top of my head. I'll check out the app you suggested tonight and see if I can create a few "Web" graphics, thanks again!

I have some specific icon requests if possible. I'll also be attempting my own icon pack in the near future.. I'm waiting for this quarter's classes to end first.

Thank you so much.. These Icons look great, thats why I hope you can make these so my phone can look even better.
New Theme
Am I the first to produce a new theme for Androkkid?
Let me introduce Obsidian, for those who might prefer a more businesslike theme.
It has been developed on a QVGA screen so I have no idea whether it will work on other screen resolutions.
Just unzip and place the Obsidian folder in the Androkkid Themes folder. It will then be available to select under Settings
The Title buttons (more than shown) can be found in the Obsidian theme folder along with a blank if you wish to make different titles (I can make others if you aren't able to do that). I set the size of the Title buttons to 128 x 32 in Androkkid settings and they have to be positioned, as for any other icon. They can also be used as shortcuts as per normal icons. For example, in my setup, I have the Contact button pointing to my address book.
The 'Lock' Icon on the Home page is not part of the theme but has been designed to match. I have included that icon in the Obsidian theme folder, but none of the other icons.
8 December 2009
Obsidian.zip updated for compatibility with Androkkid 1.2.0.0 (inclusion of TopBarIcons,png) and correction of transparency problem with Edit & Delete buttons
15 December 2009
Obsidian.zip updated with modified graphics

I'll see how quick I can get around to make these
There already is a cleanram icon (the one with the broom) but if you don't like it I can make another. For SoftReset I use the icon from the icon pack called "exit" (I use "Slide2shutdown" myself) There also is a bluelock (ScreenLock) in the iconpack I have that one in green and red too
I don't know which sound widget you mean, please give me a link or something.
Here are some examples, tell me what you think..

Is it possible to change the icon label backgrounds on sense ui to transparent?
Specifically for sprint hero?
thanks
Yes, it is possible.
You can recolor all Icons of Hero.
But it's lot of work. I'll try it some times, but still didn't like it.
If you can play with Gimp and 7-Zip and have any time, you could try it.
The original Icons are black at background. You can make the black background transparent.
But then it looks awful.

this gave me an idea, but i was wondering when you say alot of work, are you saying you have to do each icon seperatly? or is there a common one in the framework and then the widgets to add on?
thanks!
I think, we talk about the Icons above at the Bar with WiFi, Network e.g.
Or? If not, i must say sorry.
This icons are very very small *.png
Man of the icons are in the framework-res, some others are in the apps, too.
I want to do it, did about 20 icons. Now, I don't feel like to do it.
It's an awful and tiny work.
oh alright thanks, i thought he ment the icons on the 7 home page never mind!
I am talking about the regular icons, like browser or camera
oh lol wow sorry, well yes its possible, iv seen 1x1 wigets with the transparent background, but the rest of the icons had the grey/black background...
im assuming that every app developer doesnt have to make it or add it in so it must be in the framework.. il look through quickly see if i can find it
no luck sorry, but yes its definitely possible
Sorry for that! ;-)
This is definately possible.
Ahome is a program that allows you to do this and even change to any colour you want.
Just a simple process I beleive, it's a shame we couldn't take the Ahome application without having to use the whole program as it replaces your desktop a bit lke GDE.
