Hey everyone, just wanted to make this thread for anyone interested in getting some custom work done for a signature, wallpaper, logo, app icon, etc. I'm a freelance artist with a degree and have 10+ years of combined "digital art" experience as I like to call it. I am not trying to sell anything here, just doing this out of fun and to give back to the community so DO NOT EXPECT DEADLINES! However, If you need work done for commercial use (app icon, etc.) and have a deadline, we can negotiate through G+ as far as pricing goes.
P.S. If you are an app developer and like my work I will be more than happy to make revisions or updates to work I do for you as needed.
IMPORTANT
I am not taking requests directly from this thread, I am making this thread to initially gauge some feedback on people's interest in getting some work done and will have a reserved section under this post where I will post a link to my G+ Community where you can join and make requests.
This will make it easier for me personally to keep track of everything and stay organized.
More info to come on the G+ Community page (pending feedback from the XDA community)
Thank you if you took time out of your day/schedule to read this!

Moderators, please feel free to move this to another forum if it doesn't fit here.
There are currently no Usenet groups for Android software or supported trans-coded video files. There are advantages to hosting these files on Usenet, rather than on this, or other websites. Please PM me if you would like to hear my opinion. I will not discuss this openly.
I would like to propose one be created, but actual new group additions to Usenet are a pain in the rear and require a community backing.
Is anyone else here familiar with the process?
I have never added a group myself, but I have worked for a Usenet provider and know that it is not a simple process. It would require a proposal in the alt.control newsgroup, as well as a discussion and justification of the group between supporters and the ISC (www.isc.org). For this, we need people to speak up and support our group in the alt.control newsgroup.
Notice how I say OUR group. I propose the group be un-moderated, because suggesting a moderated group requires a lot more organization, time, and discussion before the ISC will consider the addition.
Again, if anyone has actually undergone the addition of a new group, please speak up. If no one has, but people are interested, I will try to work with Usenet assistance groups on getting a group added.
Thoughts?
I'd be surprised if a quarter of this forum knows what a newsgroup is.

Ahh, well if there is not a community interest, I won't pursue it. In my opinion, the brightest people use this site, so I'm only posting here.
I guess then, I am one of the 25%. I gave up on usenet years ago when the content to spam ratio got too bad.
I still grin when I think of alt.barney.die.die.die
I guess it all depends on what exactly the OP wants out of a newsgroup. These days most interest groups / communities on the internet form around http-based services like forums and bulletin boards. There are also hybrid http/email mailing list type things. Generally the whole of the Android community is well served by these tools already. Between the various fansites (phandroid, androidguys, etc), the Google android-discuss groups, xda-dev, and #[email protected], I think there are plenty of points on the internet as-is for all comers alike.
Of course, then theres the modern-day usage of usenet, which is not so much discussion-centric rather than a no-holds-barred haven for digital piracy and pretty much every kind of porn under the sky.
Okay, so here is my goal. (MODS, if this is not where you want this posted let me know)
I have setup a site at http://android-look.co.cc/. I love XDA's forums (sometimes..), and wanted a site that had all of the themes for Cyanogen's mods and Metamorph is one place. I have posted numerous themes to the site all organized by theme type.
I have unlimited bandwidth and unlimited space available and would love to utilize it.
I am willing to allow developers to post their own pages and updates too.
Most developer's pages link right back to XDA for screenshots and installation instructions.
If you are a themer and are interested in hosting your themes on my site, please sign up and email me. I will give you moderator access which will allow you to post and edit content.

Suggestions and input is always welcome. If this is something the community is not wanting, then I will not continue the project.
I am restaurant manager and have limited time. Until themers get involved, I will only updated 1-3 times a week.

That's fine. Fixed. I am not really interested in maintaining this site. I am hoping that the theme developer's will use this site as free hosting (instead of those terrible file-sharing sites). If you are interested, please let me know.
About 5 months ago, I had the idea of creating a site strictly for themes for rooted Android phones. Of course, I did my research and there are a few out there, but none of them had the organization or information one needed about any certain theme. So, I went with my idea and now today, here I am with the initial design of my latest project, Central Themes.
The way I see Central Themes is a place where developers can sign up for their own developer profiles where they will be allowed to upload their themes with screenshots, features, descriptions, etc.
Now, while users will not be able to sign-up for their own profiles, they will be able to comment and leave their feedback on themes on the website.
Now, why am I posting this here? Simply put, I need your feedback and who better to ask for feedback than the users of the themes and the developers who create them!
Right now, all I have are the initial designs and that's where you guys come in. Check out http://www.centralthemes.com/feedback and tell me what you think!
What features would you like to see added, what other information needs to be put on the theme pages, would you like forums, etc, etc, etc.
So, please, feel free to send an e-mail to the address on the website or feel free to leave your constructive criticism in this thread.
Thanks,
Travis James
I'm sure most everyone is already aware, through other sites, or facebook, or twitter, but I just wanted to post it here too. CassDroid aka Cassy Wright passed away on Sunday. The details are unclear but there was a lot of unusual activity and posts on her facebook account.
I wanted to also propose some form of donation page for her family. I can't personally start it up, but I would hope that one of the XDA Admins would be willing to; I can pass along her family's contact info to whomever does take that responsibility.
Cassy was a valued member of the Android community with her friendly personality, her wit, and her vast knowledge of a large majority of the spectrum of Android phones. Many have already posted notes of condolence to her family and close friends.
Google is your friend if you want more posts/details.
Edit: Donation page already up by her friends

Hi everyone. I was selected as one of the 60 finalists for the OP3 peer review team, and now I need your help getting into the top 30, and what better place to come to than xda? Currently I sit at 31, and every vote counts. You can vote for me here: (You will have to remove the space before the .net and .eu)
Mod Edit: Link removed.
I'm also the #1 Canadian candidate, and the #3 North American, so if you're from here, show some love
You can view the current results here:
Mod Edit: Link removed.
Now, the things I mainly want to cover are the battery life, strength of the cell signal, fluidity of the OS, and temperature measuring during daily and extensive use. I am posting here not just as a way to get votes, but as a sort of request-taking procedure. If there are any specific things you would like tested (besides putting it in a blender, I don't work for BlendTech) I am willing to do them and contribute that to my official review, which I will link here. If you have any questions regarding myself, my plans on what to test on the phone, or anything else, I am more than willing to answer any and all questions. Thanks for your support!
Hi!
You are welcome to enjoy XDA as it's meant for, info, sharing, helping, etc. But it's not a place to rally others for votes for off site endeavours. :good:
Please, no duplicate threads either.
