Hi everyone,
So this is my first venture into theming and icon pack making. I have to give a big thanks to all the members on XDA who've posted theming guides, as well as to Pooley for his knowledge in icon making and also Team EOS cause without their themer try out event I probably still wouldn't be back into theming and developing.
So without further ado I present Inside Awesome. The pack is completely icon masked as of right now however by the end of the week I should have my pack fully themed for icon picker and the major apps.
Since its my first it is free on the play store and until I actually get really good most my packs will be free. I am always open to criticism and requests for certain apps to be fully skinned.

I've been searching around and have only found one guide on creating a custom icon metamorph theme, it doesn't seem too bad. Thy only problem is it only said you can only morph app icons in system/app so since those are only rom apps, is there a way to change the icons on downloaded apps? I'm not sure where they are located but can you just move the apk and odex files for the downloaded apps to system/app and be able to morph them?
I'm using the MIUI rom but hate the way it puts the purple rounded box around icons, I'd like to be able to change the icon to a larger size that fills up the entire box.
Thanks in advance for any help or guidance

Thanks for linking us to the pack - now we can all use it
P.S., There should be a new rule in xda. If you post an awesome homescreen or say you found an enormous theme pack, you must link to the wallpaper, theme and all widgets - otherwise you are just teasing us.
Welcome to Nitro Vivid 1.0 - Tested on Super Clean
This theme is a spin off of some of my other themes and with a lot of color. A lot of the launcher images are from manup in this theme.
Features:
Full Black UI with custom menus and launchers on nearly every icon (manup and myself)
Superclean 2.9.2 battery
Modded gingerbread dialer (tabs taken from nitsuj's Sense)
Blacked out Contacts from NitroDark
Blacked out mms app (kenesis)
Black Google Talk
Black Google Voice
Settings menu icons HTC style
Calendar highlights green (nitsuj's sense, landscape modded by me)
Themed widgets (voice, talk, search, facebook, twitter, launcherpro widgets)
Themed launcherpro (yes it is the old version for now)
Custom drop downs and buttons
Overall just quite a few windows, icons, launchers modded and cleaned up.
Just as the title suggests. Everything is just vivid!
Themed android keyboard and swype
Swype keyboard layout from thatdudebutch
Green tracer and glow added to swype
Custom bootanimation (not sure where from)
Wallpapers are included if anyone wants it. (sdcard/nitrowallpapers)
Mashups of all sorts of stuff
Items working on:
Themed phone.apk
New pull down/toggles
New signal strength
New buttons
Add some more detail so that it is more complete
themed mms
Download v1.0: http://www.mediafire.com/?sxux57fzxiye10w
I have posted an attachment at the bottom with an updated launcherpro 0.8.4 for this theme. Remove the old one with rootexplorer and drop this one in system/app which is the same location as the previous version.
If you would like the stock android keyboard instead of the dark black and blue flash this: http://www.mediafire.com/?f3fxk4uupd8h4cy

The wallpapers are pushed to your SD card during the install. It should be in NitroWallpapers folder.

Its vivid compared to his other great themes. This is a great one as well. Ever wonder why people stop makeing themes? Because when they make them and for the most part everyone likes it, there is always one person that has to be a smart ass about it one way or another. I'm sure the devs get sick of the crappy post about work they are doing for FREE! just saying
Hey, I'm really digging this one a lot ...
I have a couple of suggestions.....
The new version of launcher pro is on the market, 84 I think it is...
One of the themes I've played with.....maybe a few versions ago of either superdark or nitrodark had these cool nifty colored icons in the pulldown menu that I think would match this concept.....
I really like the themed launcher pro setup, just adds to the cool factor and it works right without me having to reenter my registration key for the plus parts, I guess its stored in a setting on sdcard, but its cool nonetheless

I am actually going to to change the notification bar to the one from superdark that I also used in my NitroDark theme in some of the earlier versions. I have an updated launcherpro for this version if anyone wants it. I am going through and updating the launcherpro's that I use in my themes right now. I will post a zip if anyone wants it in the original post in about 5-10 minutes.
Thanks again for another great theme. Nice job!

Hi guys,
Hope all of you are well.
So I'm back after a two year break from iOs to Android.
As I was browsing through the internet and try to look if there are any new alternatives to sweeter home I really couldn't get wiser out of all the information. So before I will start building themes again I was wondering if anyone knows what the top theme alternative apps for the moment are (2012-2013) and would like to share that with me.
In the past I have made some themes on sweeter home like these:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nOIopL7bbi4
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0QOCowHO65c
But that was in the very beginning of the mobile Android platform and there were not many options to customizing your home screen.
So hereby my humble request to some information in the right direction.
With kind regards,
DizzyDix

Wow, uccw is deffinitly something I was looking for.
Seems like a very powerfull app and one could modify every aspect of their UI.
Thank you for your reply!
Uccw is amazing.. don't forget about widget locker.

I believe the top two launcher apps right now are apex and nova. And the apps that have already been named above are amazing for customization.

Great news
Wow guys,
This is wonderful, thank you all for the input.
I think you have helped me a long way now with all this info.
I was really stunned by the uccw app, because of its possibilities.
But I will surely check out all apps.
I was kind of disappointed yesterday when I found out my S3 has no scrolling wallpaper function, so they force me again to make my own UI.
And because I dont like using ROM's I rather work with a launcher app/home screen replacement.
While browsing I have seen many good functional and good looking themes, so it is really a challenge for me to bring something out.
First I will play around with android and hopefully start theme'ing after a while.
Wish you all a good day.
Cheers
Dizzy
go for apex as your launcher..

Launcher/ Home replacement
Hi all,
There has been some mix up, I think because of me.
I get a lot of input from you guys and that is totally cool, never expected that but your info is by far great nice to see the xda community being so helpful.
The mixup:
I don't think I am looking for a "launcher app".
I'm looking for a skin app which lets me change every aspect of the android UI, in this case TouchWiz.
So let's say we have Touchwiz with bottom bar where the apps icon always is outlined on the right and we have the home screen with the status bar etc.
What I want to do is: replace all elements of the TouchWiz. So for example that my homescreen will look like the Mac Os Lion interface on a mac or like the Windows 8 interface on a laptop.
The only app which lets me do that (that I know of) is SweeterHome, but I can't find sweeterhome in the market anymore and Beta 2.0 has bugs.
So then I was informed about:
UCCW
Apex
Nova
Home
iHome
aHome
SPB
LIghting launcher with uccw (that is totally not what I am looking for as I am designing my own theme so I dont want to use someones theme as a consumer but use an app that lets me build a new UI on the android OS.)
Ss launcher
holo launcher
zooper widget (not looking for a widget shell, but thanks for the input)
So, the most important question:
Is there an app that can do the same as SweeterHome?
Im looking forward to hearing from you guys,
Regards,
Dizzy

Hey Bud, thanks for your reply.. but I dont think you understood my message..
I am not looking for someone's theme.
I make themes.
Thanks though..
Unless I'm mistaken it sounds like you're looking for something that would completely change the visual aspects of android ui such as the status bar, menus pop ups and things of that nature afaik the only thing similar to that requires you to be rooted and running custom roms, which has the theme manager and allows you to theme to entire system and framework of android, if your looking for only third party apps available in the market that are themeable I believe super status bar comes with a theme engine as well as omega status bar (for the status bar) however they don't perform very well, and many custom launchers such as apex and nova allows for custom icons and icon packs as well as docks etc... However most themeing will require root as well as a custom roms like CM or PA (paranoid android) or aokp which all have the theme engine included.
Just a side note the theme engine included in these roms are based off the tmobile theme engine and cannot be used as a standalone app

Sorry for the double post, just wanted to let you know there are third party apps that you can use in place of rooting however none will be as effective or theme as thoroughly as using the theme engine. Here's a list of some apps that might do what you need
Widget locker (for lock screen)
Super Status Bar (for status bar)
Go Launcher Pro (for home screen and launcher) not much experience with this but it seems pretty thorough in its themeing capabilities
Hopefully these can be viable alternatives for you ill add more if I think of any or of you have any other questions lemme know

+1 to what he said ^^^^ very detailed. But here is my shorter version, look into how to make a "Theme Choser" (or Theme Engine) theme, that is the most complete way to change how your phone look. Another alternative would be MIUI ROM, which is extremely customizable and dynamic when it comes to theming capability. Hope it helps :laugh:

Yesss!!!
Kagedin, thank you you've just answered more questions than I needed.
I was not sure if I needed to root but this confirms it. I got very noob at the moment because of the breakaway of 2 years from android so sorry for the complex questions.
But your answer confirms that I need root. And I also came to know that if you want to make an Apex theme... these days its done on your desktop through Python or etc.
Things has changed a lot since the beginning of Android, back then it was root into your phone, take aspects of the UI, redesign them on your desktop and place them back into their original folder on the phone and you where good to go.
I will go with Widget locker, Super Status Bar, Go Launcher Pro and Apex for the moment but first of all root.
BIG THANK YOU!
Hello Guys,
This is my first attempt in making an icon pack or anything graphical. I've been working on this icon pack for almost over a month since my summer holidays started. Right now there are only about 120 icons included, but I'm working hard to get more icons added. Please use the in built icon request to help me.
I hope you like my work and please give me feedback and suggestions on how to make this icon pack better.
Thank you.
Work on nova, Apex etc...

Icons are being redesigned
When you install this app, there is an application called Pomade where you can send me icons that have not been themed yet.
