BACK 2 BLUE - a simple theme for CM12.x/CM13
BACKGROUND
As many CM users already know, CM changed how the stock Browser app looks in CM13, using a green palette. Just recently, they also quietly changed the palette for the Messaging app, this time in a more shocking purple. I don't understand why CM decide to put so much eye strain on us, nor do I want to stand the disharmony it caused on my homescreen.
Since there are so many devices of different nature and density, one modified browser/messaging app can't fit all, so I'm inspired to start my first Android "app" project according to CM's guidelines, the result of which is this simple theme that solves the above problem universally.
THEME DESCRIPTION
This theme, as of version 1 r2, themes the following elements:
Browser - revert to a blue version of Lollipop's browser icon; blue palette
Calculator (stock, KitKat and below) - use Marshmallow calculator icon
Email - blue icon and palette
Messaging - blue icon and palette
Sound Recorder - gray palette
Snap Camera - use stock Camera2 icon
Eleven (CM music player) - use icon prior to May 2016
SCREENSHOTS
Before you ask, the statusbar and navbar color effects are achieved by the Xposed module PerfectColorBar, not by the theme.

Version 1 r2 - Now hosted on AndroidFileHost
FINAL WORDS
The theme's aim is to correct the stray colors while keeping things as close to stock CM as possible - I created the project solely to satisfy my needs, to get rid of icons I see as discordance, so I will only theme certain system apps when necessary and will not theme user apps. I don't intend to become a pro themer and compete with all the wonderful full-fledged themes out there, and you might want to consider those themes or even make one yourself if you want further customization. It's easy - I created this one in mere hours, and if you are familiar with Android Studio, you can do it maybe even faster!
Thanks for checking out my first Android "app" project! Toss any useful suggestions below, but as said above, don't expect any requests get integrated
Version 1 r2 reverts the icon of Eleven (the default music player in CM) from the new pinkish one introduced in May to the gray one used prior to the change.

Windows Phone 7 Theme v2.0 Beta
Title says it all.
I just made this to see if there was any interest in this, it's still a work in progress. If there is enough interest in this I will also expand the theme.
This is a simplistic theme, using no glow, no transparency, no bevel effects and no, colours. Also this uses my own pathed versions of Windows Phone 7 buttons and iconography and everything is designed to fit a styleguide.
This theme is compatible with any and all honeycomb devices or ROMs.
Theme includes:
Segoe WP fonts
Some custom launcher icons (still adding more)
Custom WP 7 icons for the nav bar
Custom WP7 notification icons
Framework modifications
Requirements:
CWM
Busybox
Instructions:
Flash the .zip file through CWM
????
PROFIT!
Future changes:
If there's enough interest I'll continue this project and expand the theme.
Fix the up/downstream logo's
make more icons
possibly change the clock font colour
possibly change some apps
and I'll probably think of more things when I get to it.

And of course a screenshot. Icons on the left side are for keyboard dock and MicroSD.

Beautiful indeed. Will try when I get the time...
Follow me on twitter at THE_Yakitori for pre-releases, and updates before they get posted here.
This is a modified port of my Caelum theme for the D1 LGB. There have been a lot of improvements and a somewhat different feel to it. It has a very gentle white/black appearance and less blue (although still has blue in it)
This is for LTB 2.2 only. Cannot garuntee it will work on any other versions or roms..but I will be porting to future releases of LTB.
Thank You's and Credits:
thebowers (FW images/checkboxes/dialog backgrounds/progress bars)
ecsnead (inverted calculator)
stetsonaw and MBK (GB keyboard)
bored (volume dialog icon)
Liquid (for the ROM and images that were in there already..that I didnt touch)
DreamLyfe (for the demo docks I modified them)
Everyone else Im probably forgetting.
Whats themed:
FW
SysUI
Browser
Calculator
Camera
Contacts
Deskclock
Email
Gallery
Gmail
GoogleQuickSearchBox
GO keyboard (NEW)...see theme setting below.
LauncherPro (demo dreamlyfe docks I modified)
MMS
Music
Phone
Settings
Vending (credit ecsnead for inverted black market)
Launcher Pro already has the docks built into the theme. To change docks, go to preferences, appearance, dock backgrounds, and pick Froyo, Froyo wide, smoked glass, glass. If you want a custom Dock, you will have to use it from your gallery like normal. If you dont like the text dock icons, you can delete LP from the theme and install it from the market (or go with the one in LTB)
I will be updating the OP with pictures, as well as a zip of signed themed apps that go well with this theme. I recommend ecsneads inverted google+, thebowers twitter, Inverted FB, Inverted dropbox to enhance the black and white softness of this theme.
I use Go Keyboard with this theme. I have themed the black theme skin that you can apply to the go keyboard. To enable go keyboard, go to settings/lang and keyboard/check go keyboard...then go into go keyboard settings and theme setting and enable the black theme. I have updated this theme with a more black/gloss bubble keypad.
Installation:
1. THEME, install by flashing through recovery.
2. No zip for signed apps...they are now scripted to install to /data/app with my updater script.

Here is a screenshot for updated Signal bars I have included. They flow better with the theme. The pics in the first post are not of the current signal bars. This is what they look like.
Make a version for monotherory
hmmm....Ill consider it. Depends on my schedule. Im in a wedding this weekend unfortunately...cause I dont like being in weddings (tux rental, gifts, etc....not my cup a tea).
I have a theory theme, so I can port it to Monolitheory...shouldnt take forever...but at least need to find about 4 hours to work on it. Its a matter of finding 4 hours alone with a computer. lol

I've been very busy with my android desktop and was a big rush to get my supplies LauncherAdvanced, unique thread of my development HERE
I would like to clarify that I have compiled this launcher for a long time, then the android trendy JB was 4.2, I had to make some optimizations so that it can get better at 4.4 and 5.1 (maybe in the future 6.0).
The purpose of the launcher is the same as I always have in mind, do not like and have never liked large packages and applications do not like too much RAM consumption, thinking that I developed this launcher, it is a typical size coming from ADW sources @AnderWeb (Thanks).
Their characteristics are very clear, see below:
Desktop settings
Set icons and wallpaper
Set style dock bar
You can set colors and transparencies in the apps grid
you can create folders and name them
Speed to open the apps grid
Animations, themes etc ..
You can also back up and restore it if you want to save your settings
Known bugs:
At the moment he does not have a transparent status bar (I will fix this)
By using wallpaper is a blur in the dock bar (only the launcher wallpapers, you can use other without problems)
Some other?
It is fully in the development of state and I will appreciate if you understand java and can help me with corrections, so I'll leave my sources available on GitHub
DOWNLOAD HERE
To install:
Download the latest launcher
Pass to your SD
Install usually how to install an apk SD
enjoy
Hi dev I'm using this launcher from past 3 days, really I'm loving it.
I got every thing which I want like ,
It's light weight.
Smooth
I can set it to full screen by hiding status bar.
Specially the short cut icon sick at the bottom ( I really loved the concept).
But after using it I felt like I'm using kitkat launcher in my One plus one (5.1 lollipop).
And their is no smooth scrolling.
Their is a problem with animation.
I'm not getting the widgets properly like my cm weather widget unable to display weather only time and date .
Each icon using more space then the actual size.
I'm unable to increase the size of icons .
Old type widget and shortcut section menu etc .
But I'm still using it coz I'm loving it.
Hope you ll update it soon with latest standards.
Thank you dev
