[ICONSETS] Transparent Frames! uniform style Icons which blend in with wallpapers!

These Icons were originally developed for Androkkid a launcher that mimics some of the looks and functionality of Android.
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 (mostly 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. The Iphone style icons were like square holes in the scenery
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, their transparency will not work. If they are resized by Androkkid they are fine.
If you want to use these and need other icons, ask me and I'll see what I can do.
I am also releasing a template (see below)with all the frames if others would like to make their own icons, which would be sweet
The template was originally based on blumetalaxe's ireflect template but it's now very different
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
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:

Why do the icons look all "crappy and jagged"?
While I don't agree with that they do look all "crappy and jagged", there is definitely a valid point here.
The answer is that in order for the icons to work everywhere I cannot use gradient transparencies which show up like ugly white spots in some launchers. These semi-transparent pixels are what makes graphics smooth when you shrink them to the small sizes we use for the icons.
When you shrink something against a coloured background like they have in iphone style icons, it isn't a problem, but against a transparent background it is. I've put a lot of effort into making them as smooth as they are now.
For a more detailed discussion and examples of "jagged edges" go to page 10 of this thread.

The Making of an icon
I want to show you guys some of the typical things I do when I set out to make a Transparent Frames icon. I had made an Icon for a Car Profile App but it didn't work well for qvga so I thought I'd make a new one that was more clear and obvious for smaller sizes. My idea was to use a stickshift as a very recognizable object easily associated with cars.
I googled stickshift and after much searching I found the following picture of a Lamborghini stickshift that I really liked:
The only problem was the knob which was stylish but not easily recognizable as part of a stickshift, so I googled some more and in the end I found another knob I liked better:
It was nice and shiny but the "glare" was a little messy and the picture also had a lot of noise so I spent quite some time cleaning the glare from the top of the knob. Maybe the difference isn't so great but I liked it a lot better afterwords(It took quite an effort):
Next step was to remove everything but the knob from the second photograph.
When I had done this very boring task I had to reshape the remaining top of the knob to be much more round in shape,
The result:
Next step is to import the image of the knob as a layer on top the stickshift image and scale and stretch until you're pleased with the result.
Then it's the boring and timeconsuming bit again where I remove all the rest of the picture around the stickshift, and here it is almost finished cleaned:
Next step is to import it into the Transparent Frames Template and then scale it down and try to find the best size against one of the frames.
The scaling down process has ofcourse left a contour of gradient transparencies(semi transparent pixels around the edge of the graphic) so next I switch off the frame again and switch on the purplish background layer and export it as a png with this purple background:
I then remove all the purple while I decide pixel by pixel which semi transparent pixels to keep and which to eraze, to get the graphic to be as smooth as it can be.
In the end I import the graphic back into the template and just switch on an off the different frames and export as a pngs
This is typical of the work behind a new icon. Sometimes it's more work and sometimes it's a bit less.

Thank you for this. Just a little advice from a freezing Netherlands: I think you'd better put some examples in the startpost so people actually can see what they download
Cheers,
Arnold

Thanks man I'm working on a template which will make it easier to publish new icons in all the frames (three for now) at once.
I have made some new icons as well and have some more planned
UPDATE! the template is finished see post #1

Hi Teacher1960
Beautiful icons This is good work!
BTW I have QVGA, 48x48 is enough for me so I resized them. If you want I can share the Blue icons, and I'm working on the Gold set.
Thanks

Thanks yourself for kind words. If somebody helps me work on these I think that's great, but you should be aware that resizing them might not be as easy as it seems.
When you shrink graphics the graphic program usually avoids pixelation by making semi transparent pixels(gradient transparencies)and winmo doesn't display partial (gradient)transparencies they become "white holes". It also has a problem with the colour white which become "black holes" That's why my transparent icons are so hard to make. They have to be cleaned of all white and all gradient transparencies, checked on the device and then usually cleaned again. so when you resize them they always look fine on the computer but once you use them within a launcher like Androkkid they are full of "holes" so if you check them first on your device then I'm more than pleased to have them on the thread
ps Look out for the the Dirty Steel Frames which I will probably release later today with screenshots

Hi
Thanks for the explanation, I used Gimp resize but you're right I'll install them and see if there's no issues with holes (this was the reason I dropped Androkid).
Will keep you posted

Actually Androkkid resizes these on the fly with no problems at all it's only when you scale them down in a graphic program you get into trouble. I use Gimp myself wonderful software

How does it look ?

It looks great I love it everytime I see my icons used on other people's phones.
I only hope it works the same in Androkkid, maybe you can send the resized icons to me then I can check them.
Ps tell me about icons you lack. Like I saw that you had a blank icon for Marketplace. Is that Microsoft Marketplace? because I made one for the app OpnMarket see below

Here you are, if they are ok for you, I'll remove the attachment
(BTW resizing is more important on slower processors like mine)

I tested them and I'm sorry to say that they didn't work.
below you can see the icon test. First your resized icon in the 48x48 size, then the same icon scaled to 96x96, As you can see it is very heavily pixelated. I have then put in my 96x96 icon scaled down by Androkkid to 48x48, you can see that it is mostly fine but some of the topbar has disappeared, in the end you see the original icon.
if you zoom in on your resized icons with the Gimp you can see that they have a lot of semi transparent pixels, so please don't spread these from this thread because I have a strong wish that the icons should work everywhere they use pngs, all kinds of launchers and so on

Hi Teacher
Too bad

Super Mario Theme

I see that nobody has made a Super Mario theme for the Epic. Lately I have been messing around and trying to learn how to theme and decided I would try to make a Super Mario theme. I havent done much and I have made a few icons for the status bar and what not. (as you can see I am using the honeycomb fusion theme and just changing icons here and there until it completely transforms into a completely new theme)
Here are some screen shots...

}
I know the time on the lock screen is messed up (I will be changing that tonight) and the status bar I am either considering making the clock text and the battery text black.. or maybe changing the color of the entire status bar... since its hard to see the battery text..
I am mainly making this for me and to get more experience with themes... So I am also wondering... would anyone else like to use this theme? Should I continue developing it?
What does everyone think?

looks sweet! one request I would have is to have the notif. icons a little more cleaned and polished up.

Nice! Keep up the good work...
I'm trying to learn to Theme, too I hopes of making a Simpsons Theme...I've been swiping icons from Hit and Run PC game in hopes of using them...I've been reading the threads and looking youtube videos...I welcome any input and suggestions.

This is just on the edge of awesome, OP. The notification bar needs a little work, but otherwise, very cool. Would love to have this on the EC05 framework-res, so it's compatible with SRF1.1.0.

I think this is looking very awesome. Hope you keep going with it.

Dear OP,
I love you.
Love,
DevinXtreme
P.S. Keep up the great work.

This is cool and look forward to it up and running fully on bonsai 4.0.0
Very nice work!!!

This will definitely be awesome. Have you made a flashable zip yet?

I'd definitely use it. I already have my notification sound as mario jump sound. This would be so awesome.

LOL!!
This theme is awesome. I would be all over it.

Agreed with many that this reeks of total awesomeness. It definitly needs some work/polish, but for saying it is your first theme, you are coming along very nicely! Everyones first project needs some polishing work Regardless, I agree with the others that the notification bar needs some work. I would definitly encourage you to keep developing this theme though, and when I get some spare time I'd even be willing to give you a hand on certain things. Great job so far man keep up the good work!
Also, IMHO if it were my theme, I would make a koopa shell battery icon, like a top down view. The current battery is just too hard to see. Just have the %age number inside the shell. Blue/Green/Yellow/Red colors change for battery levels. I think that'd be a neat idea.
Also, maybe if you used the SMB1 Lvl 2 (The first dungeon stage) Brick texture across the notification bar, that might make all the other things and the clock more readable, since it's a nice Dark Blue/greyish color. Again not trying to tell you what to do, just saying what I would modify myself If I decided to use it Other cool ideas incoming after my brain generates on this at work some haha.

whoa thanks man.. i appreciate the ideas.. ill get working on different versions of the battery icon... but i dont want to keep getting caught up in revising things or making different versions of something (like the battery meter)..i polished it up last night and it took quite some time (since there are around 202 images for it (including the charging icons))..
ill definitely try that texture for the notification bar... i was wanting to keep it looking like the 'status bar' for SMB3... at first i tried the light blue color and it turned out horrible..you could read anything really... then i tried the secondary color (the beige that you see) and obviously you can read stuff..just not that clearly (the battery icon)... SMB3 was revised and had updated graphics in the Super Mario All Stars game, and the status bar was changed to a darker hue of blue... which i could try to use and it should make the text more readable..
i do want to try to keep it looking like the status bar because thats where all your information was in the game...
i am definitely open for ideas...im still kicking around ideas in my head for the wifi signal icon and the 3g...i have ideas for the 3g symbol...just need to put it in photoshop and do the work... but for the wifi... yeah...i dunno about that one yet lol..
if anyone knows what the image name of the 'call lock message notification surrounding box' is, that would be great (its the box that surrounds the mail icon on your lock screen (where you drag down to view the message))
I was trying to find it last night but gave up lol
again..suggestions are greatly appreciated... if you have any ideas/thoughts about the status bar icons, just drop me a line and ill take a look at it.. im going to really try not to get caught up in revising the same icons over and over again and not doing anything else to the theme.

I do have a flashable zip that you can flash with CW3..but its just a rough one... i mainly took the honeycomb fusion flashable zip, put my icons in it, and renamed it to a different name.

This looks really good. I love the stars and the notification really doesn't look that bad. I like the coins and the number next to them. The shells are a cool idea but I think may be better for wifi or signal strength. I think black text in that notification bar would be better than changing the color of it as well. I would certainly look forward to trying this out once your comfortable with how it looks. Keep up the great work!

Can you make one with just the starite stars
I like your theme but I don't like change
I'm sticking with stock theme plus starite stars if possible

morbiddevil82,
This is really cool. I'm not even that big into SMB or putting themes my phone, But I would kick the tires on this... kick them real hard.
As for Ideas they are endless, put the best ones that came to mind would be to change the beautiful widget weather icons. Change the sun over to the Angry Dessert Sun. The clouds into the clouds in the background of SMB 1. When its raining it could be that guy that drops the spike balls that crawl around. The moon could be a ghost.
I like the Battery icon as the coin counter.

Still working on this.. have been very busy with other things this week... I'm kicking around ideas and stuff for the dialer and trying hard not to screw up the dialertabactivity.apk lol. Ill post a pic soon of the dialer, when I get back to a computer

Hey, nice icons!
I'd love to buy a couple of packs actually, though I really want to know the names of the apps you've got icons for, and when I look at your packs on your site, it doesn't even give an example of the icons.
Can you hook me up with a list of the app-names included in the packs? Does all have the same app-icons? I just hate when I get a huge pack of icons, and only 30% of the apps I use are included -_-
Thank you!
Btw, gotta add: PRETTY impressive that your count (if all packs have 542 icons) add up to 40K+ icons. There's some badass workload behind that ._o
EDIT: From your FAQ about what icons are included, is this the list? http://www.thaicon.thasyndicate.com/2010/

You do great work.

Hi ThaPHLASH,

i've just just PM you some details...

I followed the xda news and it said "free". What is free about these? 20 sample, which is only stuff that I dont use. And then I have to pay to get the relevant ones?
Im not complaining about the cost. Just complain that it was misleading when I read the news.. These are not free..
"What’s best about these threads is that you can grab yourself each icon set for free, rather than paying the usual $4.99, each."

wow these look fan-F$%ING-tastic.
about the vivid, icons need some more oempfh
not much contrast between logo and icon (firefox/shazam for instance)
could be fixed by a bit stronger outline or a light shadow
are you going to add a psd template for people to help you out on icons?

Very glad to get such a positive response, and thanks for providing some useful suggestions!
You raise a good point about the Vivid outlines - it's not something that's problematic on my phone, but it's hard to predict how it will look to others given the huge range of screens on Android devices. An outline would certainly be a good 'fail-safe' in situations where there isn't otherwise enough displayed contrast. I'll experiment with your suggestion and release an update in the coming weeks.
I'm in two minds about releasing a template. I'm actually using a pretty complicated setup at present with a lot of custom written scripts (to support multiple themes and resolutions from one template). It would take quite some effort to get that into a state where I could distribute it.
I could take submissions for just the SVG glyphs the etched part of the icon), whichwould approximately half the time to add a new icon. I could even post a template to facilitate that . However, since I hope to add bonuses to the premium theme, I'm not sure how I feel about profiting off the help of others. I'll give this some thought though - perhaps I could include all community icons in the free theme.
Let me know if you come up with any other suggestions.

Icon Requests
Hi mejogid,
It's Testerwoot from Reddit. Again, thanks for making this set, it's not often that new unique icons are made for Android. I like your 3D effect icons, and it's hard to choose between the Candy and Vivid sets.
For both, I was wondering if I could submit a few icon requests. The icons are as follows:
Foursquare
Settings (Samsung)
Songza
Apollo (Music Player)
Viper4Android FX
Samsung WatchON
Cyanogenmod Torch (installed via Aroma on Hyperdrive ROM)
ES File Explorer
iFont
Hyperdrive Hub
Hyperdrive Tweaks
Xposed Installer
Isis Wallet
Root Explorer
QR Droid
Zite
Reddit Flow
AirDroid
Bible
Tasks
Transit
Whew, that's a long list! Whenever you have time, man, keep up the good work!

Thanks for the feedback - I'll add those to my list and will add them as soon as I can. That should be within the next couple of updates, but I might be a little slow to start with as I don't currently have internet at home. Let me know if you have any more requests; it's very helpful to get an idea of what icons my users actually need.

These are great been using them for a few days now.

Nice icon pack!

These are really pretty icons, and I'd love to use them daily, but right now there's just too many icons for apps I use that haven't been themed yet.
I know how tedious it can be to trace icons, tweak the layers, paths, etc., and I have a modicum of ability in photoshop and would love to help out where I can.
Is there any chance you'd be willing to release a template and allow user submissions for inclusion in the free versions of the icon packs?
Regardless, great work on these, I'll definitely keep my eye on them to see how they progress!

I've updated the theme to include all the suggestions I've recieved, including those of busterdev and Jephre above. The themes should be far more comprehensive now.
Give 'em a try if you haven't already! I've added a tonne of icons to every theme as well as making improvements to all existing icons. There are now more than 900 in total across the suite.

thank you for your awesome icon. here some of icon requested and some activity name need to be fix. ill make it easy for you.

Thanks for these suggestions, I've added them to my list. What app did you use to generate them in that way?
I'm glad you enjoy the icons - let me know if you have any feedback about the general style etc.

Cheers, I'll add that to the top post. I've just finished an update including the icons that you (and some others) have requested. It should hit the paid app in the next few hours and the free version shortly after that.

Thx. Now most of my icons theme and it looks awesome!!! Waiting for next release. Hope all icon theme. Great job dev!!

I'm toying round with some potential new ideas for an extra theme... the bottom one needs a lot of work in terms of shadows, but I'm just toying with the idea at this point. I'd like to know if anybody is particularly drawn to either possibility!

Hi all - I've just added a new theme - Etched Material - based on what we've seen of the Android L Developer Preview. It takes inspiration in terms of the Action Button and the color scheme. Let me know what you think!
There have also been a bunch of updates to the existing themes, including much improved icon coverage and new icons.

ZL4.4.2. :good:

Looks extraordinarily busy and incoherent. The Sony logo on the homescreen looks especially bad, the lens flare looks out of place, and when in the app drawer looks pretty awful when behind all the apps. UI elements look pretty meh, the colour gradients scream 90s and early 2000s, the font is inconsistent (the middle pictures in the 1st and 2nd row cause a massive clash between the wallpaper and text). The top notification bar is hard to read - the transparency makes whatever is in the top left of it nigh on impossible to read, as well as the "Sat" being smaller in size then the time. There's a mismatch in layers for the homescreen - the Sony logo appears on top, with the metallic stripes below that, and the lens flare below that, causing unsightly shadows. The halo behind the Sony logo is also not the same shade of blue as the notification bar and navigation buttons.
0/10 would not even go near.

The second link is Vermunds theme. The icons for app drawer is beatiful because its a multi coloured icon theme and i felt it kinda was going well with the ubuntu touch theme. So multicoloured icons will be beautiful
