[Splash Screens] for HTC Thunderbolt - Thunderbolt Themes and Apps

CAUTION: NSFW!!
I know many of these are inspired by Eternity ROM but they all should work on any Thunderbolt running any ROM.
I'll post screens as I can and, if you like any of them, grab them. If you do like any of my work and should decide to use it, PLEASE hit the THANKS BUTTON! If you're feeling particularly generous, I do now have a "Donate to Me" button above my avatar to the left and, I will happily accept donations in any amount you see fit - from spare change all the way up to your entire trust fund. No amount is inappropriate.
It should be noted that I have no problem at all if someone makes a request but, due to an odd work schedule, I can't make any promises about when they will be made. I should also point out that any work request by a donor will take priority over others, for obvious reasons.
Ok, I have these all set up to where all you need to do is erase all of the name aside from "PG05IMG.zip", place them on the root of your SD card and, flash them in HBoot.
If, for whatever reason, something less than positive happens to your phone while doing this, it's your fault, not mine. The instructions are simple and easy to follow. I also test these on my own device before posting so, it's probably either a coincidence or something YOU did to screw it up!

How Many of Us Smoke Marijuana?

Just want to get a feel for how many people here smoke, not going to get into the whole legal/moral/harmful/harmless debate, just want some numbers.
EDIT: Despite saying I wasn't going to debate the use of marijuana and I ONLY WANTED some numbers in the poll, look where this has gone... Oh my god marijuana's so terrible, let's get it banned everywhere.

I agree... But remember, it's a GATEWAY DRUG OMG YOU MIGHT GET HOOKED ON CRACK! Heh.
As for the "gateway drug" idea, I've been smoking pot for like 5 years now (20 years old) and refuse to touch anything else. It's safe, it makes me feel good, why do I need other drugs?
In fact, if you believe commercials, it makes you shoot your friend with your dad's shotgun because you don't know what you're doing, it also makes you jump out of a window and drown in a pool while babysitting. It's amazing how the worst thing I've done while high is pass out, wake up and eat a ton of food... I guess I'm the exception.
i smoke marijuana and hashish, and like it.

Great pic mate! LOL
If in all world this can be a normal reality, I´m sure that consumism will drop and a lot of "Legal Buisness" will go down...
This plant has been used since the human is on this planet. Also if you know a little about the human body, there is a "Canabis receptor" in our brain...
So the problem is not the plant, is how we use it!
Legalize it!
You can see in Holland compared to any other country the consumism rate is very low (Of course does not include all the foreigners travelling there to try it)

a great truth
While I have nothing again using drugs of any kind, including alcohol (my personal favorite), I refuse to use the non-legal type for a simple reason: they would taste & smell like blood. In my country the drug gangs are heavily armed and often fight for control of the distribution points. The problem is that these reckless and ignorant bastards don't just kill themselves, they actually take out a lot of innocent people in the process. I can't conceive giving money, even one cent, to an industry that eventually will kill me at random or those I love. If drugs were free then...
That's a good point, dgaud007. Thankfully, where I'm from, the marijuana is grown by my friends, so I know it's ethical. They're technically criminals I suppose, but they're just regular guys with regular jobs, very nice.
(PS Technically, aren't we from the same country?)
Well you probably are gonna get much reply from us SINCE ITS ILLEGAL lol.... but hey obama is president now hahaha

Valid point there, but it seems to me to be an argument for legalization.
Or for home-grown!
The only ppl that want it legalized are the potheads - which would be the reason why they drive to have it legalized. It's more of a intellectual downgrade than a beneficiary.
Can't say I do, but won't say I never have

Really? Michigan just voted 63-37 to have medical marijuana legalized. Are you telling me 63% of Michigan are potheads? Massachusetts voted 65-35 to decriminalize marijuana, so now anything under an ounce is just a $100 fine. Is 65% of the state of Massachusetts potheads? The fact is, people see it's harmless and have no problem decriminalizing or legalizing it, whether they smoke it or not. Please don't bring your biased opinion here when you have no more experience with pot than what you see on commercials.

Haha oh, okay... What it does to people? What, exactly, is that? I'm not arguing the fact that you don't want to smoke it, I don't care if you do or not, but saying only potheads want it legalized is a statement that isn't even opinionated, it's just flat wrong unless you think more than 6 of 10 people in 2 different states are potheads.

Pizza: Now classified as a vegetable in the USA

Here's the story: Clicky
"The bill also would allow tomato paste on pizzas to be counted as a vegetable, as it is now."
What do you think? Is pizza a vegetable? IMO, not even close! (Btw, tomatos are not a vegetable, it's a fruit. FAIL.)
I concur. Stupid Americans.

I'd err on the side of caution. After all, if one vegetable pizza is good for you, then five vegetable pizzas must be five times as good. Eat enough of them and you'll probably become almost immortal!
Slightly OT, but on the subject of Carrots.. most people have heard of the 'Carrots help you see in the dark' myth, right? (I'll assume there are some that didn't know it was a myth until i said it. Yeah sorry about that, your mum lied to you).
Anyway, not everyone knows how the myth came to be. It was actually a British invention..and for very good reason! In WW2 the Germans didn't understand why the Allied Pilots were becoming so efficient at intercepting German Bombers. They didn't know about the invention of Radar, and the Allies preferred that it stay that way.
So they had the Newspapers publish stories about how our pilots were eating loads of Carrots, after the 'discovery' that it helps you see in the dark. Of course it didn't take long for this factoid to reach German ears and they fell for it, hook, line and sinker!
Trolololooll.
Unfortunately, it's harder to undo the myth than create it in the first place!
That's good trivia.
Thanks Dirk.

Unfortunately you guys don't live in there US so it's still not classified as a vegetable where you live. You guys are way behind the times.

So basically Donuts with Cream followed by BBQ Steaks and Banana Split with nut sprinkles for desert!

How can pizza be a vegetable if it is not grown and is a combination of many ingredients? Dough, tomato paste, cheese, shrooms, pepperoni, chicken, broccoli, parmesan. Damn, sounds like my typical slice.
So... Why Congress speak of these things?

Seriously, this is stupid.
I'll tell you now that i'm quite an accomplished cook, and one of my specialities is pizza! It's actually quite a healthy meal if it's done well. Forget all this processed crap you'd buy from a supermarket, or the disgusting rubbish from Domino's or Pizza hut!
My pizza's are freshly made using dough that i make from scratch, with extra virgin olive oil. The sauce is my own recipe; fresh tomatoes with onion, garlic and fresh herbs for seasoning. The toppings are always the best ingredients, i.e parma ham or fresh tuna and the best king prawns. I'll do a chicken and bacon using nice smoked, and dry cured bacon with quality chicken breast. Add some fresh chilli peppers and mushrooms and you have a well balanced meal with all the food groups covered!
Anybody who has ever had the good fortune to share one of my creations will tell you it's the best pizza they've ever tasted! If you've ever driven a luxury Mercedes, you'll know what it's like to jump back into a 'vintage' Ford Escort. The Merc ruins you for other cars. My pizza will ruin you for takeaway pizza forever!
The one thing i miss about not having my flat any more, is the hours i used to spend in the kitchen! Belting out tunes and getting hammered while conjuring up Italian/Mexican/Indian/Chinese cuisine.
Anybody else feeling hungry right now..?
BTW, Rib-Eye steak should have Salt, Pepper and garlic granules massaged into it before dropping it into a pre-heated pan, containing a dash of olive oil and a knob of butter. Two minutes on each side and served with beer-battered onion rings and ciabatta garlic-bread. (Freshly made ofc).*

I can build the ultimate burger in my own kitchen without having to listen to screaming brats in the background...
I like making my own burgers too, but I do them rather plain - just minced beef with some salt and pepper to season, and then slapped on a George Foreman grill to cook. I tend to make them the shape of bread and make sandwiches, rather than round ones.
What kind of home-made recipes do others use? It'd be interesting to spice them up a little.

The ingredient you are missing to make the perfect burger is... onion soup mix.
Add a full envelope to the mixture and shape the burgers. Then flour--eggs--flour and fry them.

As a fan of Burgers between buttered Toast, the square idea is rather appealing...and is in fact an imminent threat to my diet, thanks!
As for how i make them... Butcher fresh Minced Beef into bowl. Throw in an egg or two for binding. Breadcrumbs for drying. Finely chopped pickles, onions and chilie. Salt, pepper, puree tomato and ginger to season. Make patties, cover and put in fridge for a few hours prior to cooking. Grill to perfection, add a slab of cheese and eat between two halves of whatever bread product.
Anybody else feeling really hungry for a Burger right about now?

Here's one i prepared earlier. I'm having a little difficulty getting my mouth around it...

Random shoes on the road!

Can somebody explain this strange phenomenon to me? Not a single week goes by when i don't drive over a solitary sneaker laying in the middle of the road. Last night alone i passed by two of these lost loafers! Sometimes they're a running shoe without the runner, but could equally be a business shoe without the business man.
So what's going on here? Are people leaving home with their footwear on the roof of their cars only to have their favourite flip-flops go sailing off on the first bend they take? Are moped owners arriving at their destinations only to find that they are one plimsoll short of a pair?
Has anybody here mysteriously lost one half of a nice pair of pumps during their journeys on the road, perhaps stepping out of the car wondering why their stocking clad right foot just took a soaking from that puddle?
Is it the aliens...?

Here's the photographic proof. Bear in mind that once you've seen a random shoe in the road, you can't stop seeing them!

this is probably another apple marketing strategy since iphone 5 is comming up,
mental note: bring another pair of shoes incase of alien abduction, and beer, more beer
People! Come and take your freeeeee shoes!

What if they jump around on one leg because they lost their other shoe on the road!!
By jove, i think we've cracked it!*
* I'm not entirely ruling out any involvement with the Apple mob. They might be working with the Aliens.
where is my f* shoe?!
There's two types of person in the world. One who wonders why there's random shoes in the road, and one who leaves random shoes in the road.
I regularly go to charity shops and buy shoes, preferably very distinctive or colourful ones, and then place them at either end of a county. It's a hobby of mine.
Trolling. If you're just doing it on the internet then you're doing it wrong.
of course apple is with the aliens its obvious,
even wallstreet journal knows that,
the shoe thing was a gimmick to hook you off

Mystery solved/case closed. Now we can wonder about the more important things in life like, for example, is Justin Bieber an Hermaphrodidic species of Alien sent from the far reaches of the Galaxy to inflict torture upon the ears of the human race.

that's not true. Justin Bieber is a government constructed robot, in order to control humans, by either making them follow him like sheep or drive them into insanity, with his monstrous voice.

In all honesty.. I have wondered about the shoe conundrum for several years.. did surveying for quite awhile and have walked down lots of roads and interstates and always was baffled about the 1 shoe issue..
Insanely enough though.. I can top a shoe sighting..
I have seen over 30 "personal massage devices" on the sides of roads..
Wtf?!

Assaulted and given a ticket in Texas. Help!

Hey I need help! I'm 16, I live in Houston TX and back in October a kid assaulted me (jumped me) on my way to class, and I had no choice but use self defence. In the end he RAN away from me, but I STAYED with the teachers, and was very cooperative. The school did NOT see it that way and when I demanded they look at the school cameras they simply said "it didn't catch anything" they gave me a ticket for fighting, and I have court this Friday (nov. 16) my family is really low on money and I can't do community service as I have a job. What can I do so I don't have to pay a fine or get community service?
Ps. The kid broke my glasses (again he jumped me! If I agreed to a fight I wouldn't wear glasses) if I plead not guilty (which I think I should) what would happen? Thank you XDA. If this does not belong on the XDA website please lock the thread AFTER 1:30pm central time November 16. I really need all the help I can get!
Sucks, but just tell the truth and hope for the best!
I hope it goes your way.
I'm the victim here, I HAVE to tell the truth.

supposedly no evidence either of you started it... plead not guilty... either you both are stuck with a ticket, or the case is dropped...
Tell the judge there may be evidence on a school camera. He/She can force the school to show the footage.

A ticket for fighting? I'm moving to Texas. No more getting arrested. Lol
P.S. I've never gotten arrested.

Well, you do have a job, but how much is the ticket?

Lol, for real though, you want to show your billy bad ass, live with the consequences. He could of defended himself, with out whopping the boy that jumped. Truth is, he got mad, and was going to show him was up.

I was jumped. In my way to my locker he comes out of no where and starts fighting me. It was not a planned fight. ( at least for me)

I knew that. But next time, Next time. Every kid knows you don't fight on school property. If he did indeed jump you he will be back with more kid because he just got whooped on.

I'm pretty sure they aren't allowed to just say "it didn't catch anything"
I'm sure there's some way you can see the security footage and use it as evidence if you go to court.
