Graphics Guru Request For Resizing Skins - Thunderbolt Themes and Apps

I need some resizing done. Specifically for the BAMF roms, but they will benefit all Sense 3.0 roms.
I've attached a zip file full of all the Hub skins. I have also included a properly sized Burgundy skin apk, and a bad one.
What I need is, using the good burgundy skin image sizes as a template, resizing for all the skins in the zip. It is not every image, just some.

The images to be resized are in res/drawable-hdpi:

Im not a guru but I'll look at them, what time frame you looking at? and any skin preferred first?

Um, no particular time frame. We have burgundy and blue sky ready.
If I was to prefer an order of whats first, it would be music lover and spaceship earth.

If I knew anything about any if this I would help, brought to you by a pointless post,

adrynalyne,
I have them all finished, pm me and let me know where you want them.

Appreciated! It doesn't have to be a private job. Just drop them on multiupload and post them here
THanks!
Or if you rather not, I will PM you.

Ooohhhh I like the idea of new 3.0 skins. Hope this snowballs into porting most. Glass is my personal favorite. Has anybody got a transparent notification bar to work?

These work great. Thanks mr gadget

Yes, thank you.

Gadget,
For someone trying to learn, I started messing with this request, did you resize every file individually, or is there a way to automate something like this.

Great job man thanks, can't wait to see some custom skins

The answer to your question is...
Yes and No.
The images have to be resized individually, but if you really know Photoshop you can create actions to automate the tasks that are identical.
das BAMF 3.0

I'm slowly learning photoshop, so nice to know this is possible. Thank you.

How to port a theme?

Hello everyone. I have been using a theme called enoch for cm5.0.8, white widow rom, and I love it. Its a dark theme with blue highlights. My question is there any way to port it to work with cm6? I am using kaosfroyo and would like to see if I can port some of the graphics. Any help? Thanks!

Switch file names to the one you want and resize. Thats all it takes. Ive ported from Hero/N1/DROID/G1 to our phones with just doing that and no issues when using MetaMorph.
Im not quite sure I follow you? Why would changing the name help? Also the maker of this theme only makes it flashable via recovery as of now. Is it possible to port it to metamorph?
by the way I am using your theme as of right now Kevlar. I like it alot!

Some times the file name might be different from G1 to the Eris. So then you have to rename it to the Eris file name. Easiest way to do it is to compare from an Eris ROM. Then you have to resize to our size.

Thank you. Glad you enjoy it.
I am really new to all of this. Can any theme at all be ported to our Eris? I would really like to have this one on mine running CM6.
The theme is on Droid-forums.net and is 24k Black glass by Cuttalott. I can not post links yet. Sorry. I do not believe posting that is any rules infractions, but I do not post here very often.
Being from Pittsburgh, it obviously would be right up my alley, but I don't think it is possible. He doesn't have it running yet on CM6, but his other ones are. Is this anyway possible or is it out of the capabilities of our device. Like I said, not trying to bother people here, just too new to know what can and can't be done.

Any theme can be ported. Just look into making MetaMorphs and compare file names and sizes. Its that easy. Only time consuming part is resizing.
Might wanna give this a shot hxxp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=737526
There us a theme porting script over in the main theme forum,i haven't had a chance to try it yet, but definitely plan on it

[Q] Help create a Steampunk theme...?

Ok folks, my friend just got a hero and we were talking about why to root. I showed him several ROMs from this site and all the cool themes. We got to talking about how cool it would be if there was a STEAMPUNK themed ROM out there.
Here's the rub... I SUCK at theming.
I looked at the "buufed" rom and I like some of the style, but it's just not quite what I'm looking for. Props to the developer of that ROM because it's very thorough. This is the depth I'd like the Steampunk theme to have, but I just don't know how to do it. I've never built a ROM from the ground up, so I don't even know where to start.
Is anyone out there interested in a project like this, or could someone help me know what to do?
Thanks!
-mb

A steam punk theme would be pretty awesome
It has begun...
Ok... I have a great deal of respect for all you devs and themers out there. This is a beast. Time-consuming and not very forgiving...
I have started working on my steampunk theme. Here are some screenshots of what I've done so far. By no means is this a complete theme. I am using ZenHeroFX 2.0 by nfinitefx45 as my base. Credit to all artists/devs for their work.
I have themed the notification pull-down as well, but I don't have a screenie of that yet. Also, I themed the stock sense rosie, but (again) no screencap yet. I'm curious what y'all think...
-mb
Looks cool so far.
Wow. You're a fast learner! Here are some clear notification bar icons that I made. You can use them so that the black squares wont show up around the icons in the notification bar. Just unzip the zip file, and you'll see the folders that the icons are supposed to go into. Good luck!

(when I say clear, I mean that they are white with a clear background)

This is looking really good. Here's another theme I found a while back that has some of the same elements of csrom and your current build. I've never used it, but maybe something in there will help you, or maybe this dev can help you.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=478570
wow! this looks ... awesome! not usually an "extreme theme" kinda guy, but this I would use!
sadly though, I am using CM6 or AOSP, so would not actually end up using it, but I will be watching this thread for S&Gs anyway. the end result should look spectacular.
if I could add one "suggestion"? Get rid of the "branding" (SteamMod in big letters on the lockscreen?), I would think ppl would rather have something less intrusive in the look. I know I would. something clean and mechanical. just a IMHO kinda suggestion, great work regardless!

No problem-o... I appreciate the suggestion. Funny thing, too... I was using some of the mods from this on my daily use, and I thought "I need to take off that lettering 'cuz it's getting on my nerves." I'm just going to use it as the splash screen when sense loads rather than on the lock screen.
I have to take a break from this for a couple of days, but hopefully I can work on it some next week. Here's where I'm going to have most of my problems... DISTRIBUTION. I can theme my own phone b/c I know what I'm editing... I just am not sure how to make it so others can use it without bricking their phone. Any ideas? I hate Metamorph... was thinking more of a flashable zip? Or maybe just a themed version of a full ROM? ??
-mb
I may be way off, but I'm a Hero user and digital scrap "designer". I have photographed and extracted some Steampunk watch parts that you are welcome to use if you like for your theme.

The DL links are right below the pics for each post. Again, if I'm way off and you think my stuff sucks, disregard this post!
I love your theme btw!

[port] HDPI themes ported to Dream/Sapphire POST REQUESTS HERE

First off, all credit to Stewart1champ for his theme WATERMARK'D that I believe is the most polished theme there is period. After all the work of porting this to MDPI i really can't imagine how hard it was to create from scratch,hats off to Stewart1champ you are awesome....Okay,a lot of time went in to this so if you like,dislike,want something changed or another HDPI theme ported to MDPI please leave feedback. This is a flashable theme so I assume everybody knows how to do this by now if there is a demand I will make a Metamorph of it but right now it is for CYANOGEN MOD 6.1.0 RC-1 ONLY!! I use ROM MANAGER install from sd card method.Due to file attachment limits I can't even come close to showing you everything that's themed so believe me when I tell you it's a very complete theme.
Here's the download link,enjoy.

While looking at the thread you posted I ran across this........"Quote"
"Do Not Redistribute this theme, make modifications, or release as your own, or upload as your own. If you would like okay to do any of these contact DarkEdge Email"
I would be happy to re-size this for you I kinda like it myself but I need you to E-mail the author and ask he's got it right there asking you not to use his work.

Woah nice job! I would totally use this, although lately I've been running without the superclock, due to the fact that there's already a clock on the lock screen and the top right corner. But wow, you don't see alot of skins of this quality within the BW app! Nice!
One thing I've been looking for is a superclock skin with the same font as the D3 lock screen. My fave font! Modern and simple.

It pretty much depends on what you are doing, this took me about 3 hours because of the level of detail involved, I took the system dump, extracted the apk files until i found the .9.png that was used for the widget backgrounds, and i copied every single line and gradient down the pixel, so that takes a while. But many of my others where fairly simple. It also depends on your level of skill with Photoshop and you knowledge of the tools, I've been using Photoshop for many years, so I'm very familiar with it.
Plus loading it on the phone every time you make a small change can be a little annoying at times...

1 question though. My weather skin is still in stock and doesn't look like the one you are posting.
Would you mind posting your weather skin as well?
