[Theme] Burberry Checks

My first time uploading a theme I did for Sense 2.1.
Its based on Burberry's Original, Black and Purple Checks. This includes the background and clock of Sense 2.1. I can't make a screen shot, so sorry about that, maybe someone who tried it can be kind enough to post it for me.

Checked out your theme. Very nice clock...I am not very familiar with Burberry the colors for the wallpaper are they the right ones? if you had something a little brighter or lighter it would show up better against tabs, programs and other options. I took some screen shots and will upload them for anyone who wants to see the good work you did. Thanks, I will find a place amongst my collection of clocks that actually work as they should.
Great job and hope to see some more quality work from you. Maybe a theme that could go a little futher and skin other buttons and options?

Chavtastic!!

[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!

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...

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)

Awesome! Thanks. That file is really helpful! I'll post more screencaps when I can do some more work on the theme.

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.

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!

Thanks for the link. There is some good stuff I might be able to use in there... credit to the creator of course!

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? ??

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!

I have abandoned this project... it was too big for me to take on. If anyone wants to pick this up...?

its the blue version of the red galaxy theme i have....i was planning to do it at some point, depending on how complete the original is (the red one needed A LOT of work)
ill take a look at it today or tomorrow....but it might not get done til after new years
dang...i think im taking on a lot of themes

nitsu this is exactly what i was talking about ... PM me when you finish and we'll see about some donations.. and i like the top bar not all black like that but the fading kind u should have an option to pick which ones

Its all good. Take all the time you need. It does look pretty *****in though.

I don't actually take donations,,but thanks ......my thing with donations.are they should go to either the original creator of a theme or to the.guys who really make things happen on this phone...ie kernels, roms, mods
But i did take a look at the framework yesterday...,and it needs a lot of work....it looks like many of the system images were ripped from a lighter blue theme that doesn't match the status bar really at all....and the data images are just blue ones from theme kitchen....not blue ones from themed from the original red theme
Im not saying i wont/can't due it....it just might take awhile as i can't due a lot on vacation or my wife wouldnt be to happy.

That's what's up.

ultimately i decided not to do this theme as now that aosp is out my time is kinda taken up by porting stuff to that...and really no offense to the guy who made this, but...imo it was kinda all over the place with the images it contained...it seemed they came from multiple themes and didnt match
id pretty much have to do the entire thing myself over...and probably by the time i did it, dj05 would be a distant memory or something

[Q] Can I use a Biffmod theme on Gtab?

I love and still use the chromatic theme on my MT3G and would want to know if i can use it on my Gtab. I would love to have matching devices.

Lol, thats a pretty gray theme for "chromatic"..... Which rom? Looks like it would be pretty simple to port. I've been working on a gray theme also.... Not done, but preview: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/11212115/Pics/Ghosted.png

Made a metamorph, bored while backing up. I didn't add any of the themes xmls though so it may not look the same, tell me what is different and I can see about adding it.
Also, to apply this I had to change up the metamorph time, menu on main screen, bottom bar most of the way to the right...

Chromatic Rom
Its from the Chromatic Rom. It was a lite CM based Froyo build streamlined to run on the G1/MT3G/Magic. Fell in love with the rom and would like to continue the legacy even if only in style. I will check out your links and get back to you. Thanks!
Edit/
GTO777: That is a neat theme! Would love to see it on the tablet. Also Downloaded your .zip. Will give it a look as soon as I get in from my saturday night with the fiance. Thanks for your time

Looks great. I like the simple black. What realy sealed the deal with the chromatic theme was the black and red android in the corner of the notification pulldown window. I will have to poke around the rom and see if i can extract it and maybe adb push it in. I really apriciate your help and the port.

[req] themers not forget to theme contact pics

excuse the title. didn't know how else to put it.
i figured id make a post of this instead of requesting it in each theme thread.
first off i honestly do thank all you themers etc. yall make using my phone a better experience.
what im requesting is that themers not forget to change or theme the pictures in the call log, contacts and favorites sections of our phones.
for example, i was running nitsuj's gb theme. he theme'd all those pics with a green android. looks great. then i tried the new cyan theme. looks great! except some pics are a blue person, some are a nitsuj's green androids. there's no consistency.
i use my phone with those pics in those places a lot. so when i see they're not themed it's a bummer.
i don't know how long it takes or how much work it takes, but if themers could all theme all the pics in call log, contacts and favorites that'd be great!
thanks.

Honestly unless every released theme changes the exact same things
There is always going to be carry over from some themes to others....to avoid this...reflash your rom before flashing a new theme (yes I know that's annoying)

thanks nitsuj.
sometimes what i do is flash the theme with the contact pics i like and then flash the new one that doesnt have themed contacts. that way theyre all the same (thanks to the previous theme).
or take your lucid theme. in that one the mms isnt themed. its the old samsung colored theme. i flashed that, then flashed the mms from your gb theme. voila. i now have your dark/silver themed lucid theme with the dark mms of your gb theme.
it is kinda a pain and sometimes you can't flash over like that to get things like you want. which is why i hoped it would be something easy themers could remember to do. ahh well.
