So, I have had an awful lot of free time on my hands after getting laid off last week. Thought I would play around with GIMP a little more and custom make some icons. I made these for Folder Organizer icons, but they are 72 x 72 px and can be used for whatever devices support that size icon (I believe HDPI devices only, please correct me if I am wrong). I attached a little pic with all of them together.

The first one is them just lain out so you can get an idea of the size. The second one is used in the medium sized icon format of Launch-X Pro widget. I could not upload them to the site without resizing, and I didn't feel like it. It wouldn't look the same anyway. You should be able to right click --> Open in new tab so you don't have to download them. Hope you all enjoy!
These are really great! Thanks I'll be using them
Cool! I'm glad someone else appreciates them like I do. LoL
Thanks for sharing!
My pleasure.
Nice work, but is there any chance to get the wallpaper too?
Sorry, you can insert the only original wallpaper of Batman please?
Is beautiful ^_^
Ty very much! like them alot! +1 on wallpaper
nice. Great job, keep it up.
How do I install these, they are AWSOME!
Very Nice . Any chance u can make a Marvel's Avengers set of icons ? Would love too get a hold of that Batman wallpaper too .
I would donate for a set of spiderman icons....both black and red
These are awesome...sorry to hear about he job, slow for me right now too.
Using the scrolling wallpaper
Using the circle scrolling wallpaper, the Batman image and his icons, I came up with this. Nothing fancy, but still pretty cool (to me at least).
*edit*
Here's a better version of the wallpaper with his shoulders not cropped.
original wallpaper is here
Thanks everyone! Feeling the love Here is the wallpaper: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9903887/default_wallpaper.jpg This one is sized 960 x 854, or perfectly for the Droid 1 and is a bit more on center that the one previous posted. As far as how to install the icons, you can use them easily with Folder Organizer (just open the app, pick a folder, tap on the down arrow on the right side and choose Icon), LauncherPro (long press on dock icons and choose custom icon), or you can use Ninjamorph to substitute them for any app icons of your liking. This is assuming they are already on your SD card and unzipped. As far as making more of them...I would LOVE to! I just need a couple of more days as I am doing a ridiculously detailed theme for my phone that I might release at some date. It's not comic themed as I was looking for something a little more for the masses, but it'll be nice. It's weird because I posted these like a couple of weeks ago on 3 different forums and I think I got maybe 4 responses between them so kind of just figured no one cared. Please start listing a few characters you would like to see and I will try to do the most popular ones. I only ask that it be a figure with a somewhat recognizable symbol so it won't take a year to find something that will work. It took me quite awhile to get the Martian Manhunter icon because of that. Anyway, thanks again for the interest and now I know some more people are interested, I will keep a closer eye on this thread.
Hi - Great job! These Icons with the Scrolling Wallpaper "Dock" and the Batman image combined are the best setup I've had since getting my Captivate.
I have one very minor request, though - Anyway to fill in that hole in the Batman icon and repost it? I don't know if it's just me or my set up, but in the middle of the shine, there is a black hole that looks kind of like a bullet hole. You can see it in my screen capture above.
Again, though, it may just be me...
LoL Wow...I never even noticed. It doesn't show up in the pic I put in the original post until you click on it and enlarge it. I'll look into it a little later on today, so stay tuned. I found a little quicker way to do these so I might be putting more out soon. I already have a couple of Venom ones done...
Actually the same pic that I used for the zip, I had in my dropbox too and I don't notice the hole in this one. Weird. Try it and let me know please. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9903887/Bats.png
Sweet! Looking forward to it!
Looks like it's still showing up, my man. Sorry!
It's cool. I will whip up another one later on tonight after I finish some school work and watch Modern Family heh. Since I'm making another, any preferences on color?
Community,
I am sorry to make my first post a request. I was browsing through this forum the other day and came across an amazing theme/rom (cant remember which). I didn't know a whole lot about how to do what so I went to investigate what I needed to do to get my phone to look that cool. Now that I know what to do, I cant find the post that had the theme/rom. Here is what I know.
-It was in the past day or so that I found the post and I am pretty sure it must have been in one of the first pages of the captivate forums.
-It might not have been the main theme in the post, and instead been a link posted at the start (crediting the inspiration of the theme)
-There were pictures of screen shots in the post
-Its look was very metallic, almost rusty
-There was a circle segment going across one of the screens, I think it was the dock on the main screen
-very simple, dark and apocalyptic
If anyone has any clue which theme/rom this might have been, I would be forever in their debt. I would also appreciate any advice on how to search better for this...I have been at it for hours.
Thank you so much,
Dezdemona

Different animations when swiping home screen?
Does anyone know what them or launcher uses the option to change how you swipe through your homescreens?
Also, when i was running COG 3.04 i had a scrollable bottom dock bar..can't seem to figure out how to get it. Couldnt find it in the options menu's.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

The reason you had a scrollable dock in cog 3.04, was because it came packed with launcher pro (I think..). Launcher pro has the option to have multiple docks. It also has different transition options between homescreens.
Another that does the aforementioned is adw.
Hope this helps!

So you are running a HTC Droid Eris theme on your phone?
That's a nice theme, I'm likeing the keyboard/keypad interface. Has a very fresh/clean look to it, I wonder if I could use it somehow..
I have spent the last several hours downloading wallpapers from 4walled.org for my phone. The wallpapers look so nice on the computer, and I really wanted to start theming my phone with them.
So I've loaded up the 300+ wallpapers to my SD-card, and as I start browsing through them in the gallery, I have realized one immutable fact: they all look horrible. The gradients aren't really gradient, they're splotchy.
It was my understanding that this phone's LCD was capable of 24bit color? Perhaps it is not and this is where my woes are from. I have also noticed that .PNG backgrounds do seem to look better than the .jpg counterparts.
Any comments or wisdom into selecting backgrounds would be greatly appreciated.
I just looked at some of those images and they dont look that high quality to me. Maybe your monitor is older and made them look better than they are. Check here for some more. Maybe you will find some you like. http://wallbase.cc/start/
Look up "wallpaper set and save" on market, it will eliminate the color banding you get when you set a wallpaper through the gallery app.
Also make sure the resolution on any wall you get is a minimum of 960x800.

I use fish bowl photo which will also eliminate the banding. dodol wallpaper maker works great for setting portrait wallpapers too.

Thank you for that site, I always used Interfacelift.net. Nice addition.
I regularly raid DeviantArt for backgrounds and use Wallpaper Wizardrii to set the wallpapers. WW allows you to set a properly sized background without cropping.

Do you prefer that over the Fish Bowl Gallery? And does it support high-resolution images?

I've never used Fish Bowl. I only just started using WW today, but I would think that the no crop feature would only work on a wallpaper that was at or below the correct size for the display.
its all about nik.bot.nu thanks for wallbase.cc tho, another site to lose large chunks of my life too lmao
I get my wallpapers from socwall.com. Thats where I found my current wallpaper.
Thanks for all the links and the info! I will surely check those out!

Here is a collection of HD wallpapers I've made for the Xoom. They are sized appropriately to fit the Xoom's wonderfully large screen =) I take no credit for the images themselves, just sizing, and finding @[email protected]
I do however take credit for 2 of the 3rd Birthday walls, I actually did make those.
These images are SUPER high quality, and I hope you like them! I'll try to update the pack as often as I can.
Note: Some of these may be slightly explicit, nothing over the top, and NO nudity =b
Download the wallpaper pack here http://db.tt/oK7M84K
Download the Evangelion pack here http://db.tt/6l6gO3a
Update 1.1 Added Evangelion pack of 23 pictures
They those look pretty good. Thanks! I've been looking for some good wall papers.
thank you! also, sorry for the size being so big, i tried to keep as much of the original resolution as possible!
If anyone likes anime I have a Haruhi wallpaper I made and reformatted to fit the xoom.
I posted this in another thread.

Yea, I noticed a bit of them are slightly explicit...I am guessing those are from hentais lol. Anyway, good work on resizing to fit good.
actually no, nothing is from Hentai. the two groups that are the most explicit are the Ikkitousen ones and the Ladies Vs. Butlers.

My bad, I suppose I just see things in a different way lol, as I only looked at your photo with all the pics BC I'm not sure if I am able to download files on my Xoom so I will have to wait
Thanks for the wallpaper, i'm always on the lookout for high quality wallpapers and i'm both a gamer and an otaku.
no problem! its nice to see some people like them =) makes me feel useful XD
These will go great with my "just pictures" live wallpaper. If you're like me and don't want to choose just one image or don't feel like changing it manually, I'm using the app Just Pictures which also comes with a live wallpaper function. It works just like how windows 7 will cycle through wallpapers.
These are some awesome wallpapers by the way. Thanks for packing them all up nice and neat for us XD
^ awesome! i will definitely try that! also as an added little bonus, im adding to the pack soon i got a lot of great new ones that just need resized and compressed!
just added the new pack, check it out!
Thanks for posting these =]
This will work on any rom except AOSP and CM12. I'm posting this now so you can get rid of that stock UI, I'm doing about 3 more apk's then a much more formal posting will be put up.
I also themed the HTC 9 camera that is available, the M9 has many more features, and takes much better pics than the Google camera. A seperate link will be posted below. I did not create the Zip,and i take no credit for it's creation, I just themed it. I don't want donations, but if you can HIT THE THANKS BUTTON I would really appreciate it.
If you allow app updates for any of the themed apk's it will untheme that apk, so uninstall updates for that particular app and the theme will return, i've done lot's of app updates, and hardly ever do I notice a difference in the app.
I completely revamped this on July 26. Colors are better blended, and took out some of the Gold, and removed some red. Hope you try it out, you will be impressed Also, make sure that your main Google app is updated or it will FC after flash

More APK's and a more formal post to come in a couple days. Attention to detail was a constant in making this, and it looks great on the phone. Hope you enjoy.

This will liven up your phone considerably
will you make other themes?

Eventually yes, this one took almost 3 weeks so I need to recover a bit before I start another one. I just got calendar done and it looks awesome, I will post that tonight or tommorow morning

What does me not liking your theme have to do with my theme making ability (or lack thereof)? Next you'll tell me that I can't say "Nickelback sucks" because I can't play guitar.
You asked for thoughts... so I shared mine. If you're going to create things and ask for feedback, you shouldn't get your feelings hurt so easily.

I must agree with Ryjabo here. This is just constructive criticism coming from another graphical designer, but the color scheme is horrendous.
I do see the work you put in and everything you have themed and you have amazing potential to create amazing themes, just work on the color scheme to make it something elegant. This is an elegant device, the theming should represent and complement that designing style.
Look at other themes posted both on here and the Play Store to get some coloring ideas. Don't copy those themes, just use them as a base for your own creation.

ummm....
protip 1: avoid mixing blue and red [emoji14]
and avoid mustard color altogether
Thanks for sharing though, you have potential as a themer and with enough practice (and less contrasts in your color schemes) you could end up making some nice looking work [emoji106]
Musicman may not be a professional designer, but as graphic artists.... We should lend suggestions or constructive criticism to help him as he makes his way into the material based GPE rather then just calling it ugly. As @DarK_DemoN stated he has potential he knows how to use VTS and work his way through the xml, its just getting the color scheme down.

Everything is so subjective when trying to determine what colors to use, what 5 people hate, 5 more people may really like so in a way picking out the proper colors is tough. If people took the time to flash it they may like it, a few screenshots can't paint the whole picture.
I don't mind at all constructive criticism, but to bark out "it's ugly" I must admit set me off a bit. LP was very hard to theme, and a great deal of time was put into that and I realize not everyone is going to like it.
Thank you for the input
