[theme] DETROIT TIGERS rc33 jf 1.42 updated3-2

I am building a Detroit Tigers theme for my own use, and thought I would throw it up here to see if anyone else was interested in downloading it when its finished. I plan on changing some of the other icons (calender for sure) and changing the top bar to a more "tiger" color (maybe orange).

ok cool im glad to see some interest! i will get back to work on it today. I have high hopes for the final look. And yes im going to make the clock bigger, or the arms smaller. keep checking back it should be done by the weekend.
3-1-09
DONE! I hope all of the tiger fans out there enjoy this theme I know I will.
If anyone has any problems with it please let me know. If anyone can think what would make it look even better let me know and I will see what I can do.

Why is the clock so small and the arms so big,was that suppose to be like that?

that's awesome, i posted that clock (sans the arms) weeks ago with hopes someone would do something with it. i have way to much on my plate to be designing into the wee hours, so i am glad you have done this detroit theme!

Cant w8 for the finished product. Someone should try to do a Pistons Theme and a UofM Theme(GO BLUE!!!!!)

Dude? make one for the Cubs too, and that would be the most awesome thing I have ever seen. Please man, if you have time as a personal request, do it for the Cubbies too, I havent had a Championship in over a century, atleast give me this *sniff*

NO Ohio theme
Ya I wont be creating a ohio state theme.... But I will make a U OF M theme, but not until its closer to the start of the football season

theme ready
its ready for download!

Very nice theme mate, another fellow Detroiter? The map icon of I-75 gave it away ;p

ya i am from the detroit area. im glad you like it.. did you download it?

Naw, It's not my style. I like sleek, minimal, glossy themes. Its still a cool theme though, just not up my ally lol.

why is it 40 plus mb?

40+mb
its 40+ mb because when i started to build it I built it on JF 1.42 not on a blank zip folder, or on top of another theme (like I should have) by the time I realized what i was doing it was too late to sw over. So when you download it, it is the whole JF 1.42 build not just the Theme. I hope I explained it right. I can assure you that it works though and there is nothing wrong with putting the whole thing on, it will just take a few more seconds to download and update to the phone. sorry, I hope people still use it because i spent a lot of time and effort on it, and I love it.

its been downloaded 6 times

Vista Theme? Is anyone really interested?

I have been kicking around the idea of a Vista theme for quite sometime. But didn't think anyone would be interested. I have played around with the idea and it actually looks pretty cool. I will put up some screen shots later.
But Before i go all out is anyone really interested in this idea?

I would be interested to see what you come up with. I would like some more themes to switch between

As would I, I bet it looks real nice. Lets see the screens of the direction you are taking.

I know there is already and "Aero" theme so not sure if you want to do a second theme.

I'm def interested in a vista theme, i currently use a vista wallpaper and a theme would just be heaven in my opinion

I would love a vista or windows 7 theme.

i am very interested in a vista or windows 7 theme for rc33....

Im definitely interested.

with how fade to blue turned out, i'd b willing to try just about anything you come up with, you are very dedicated and a perfectionist

Please make a vista or windows 7 theme for rc33,I want one so bad.

I think you should go for the Vista theme. Windows 7 is beta still and vista isn't, so use what the one that is complete.

Would love a windows vista theme, I say you should go for it

Yes!!!!!!!! And if it comes out as good as FadeToBlue - i'll donate another few bucks your way. Can't wait.

Well its settled, i am making a Vista theme. It is starting to look better then the theme i was making for the contest so i think I will be using this one for the contest instead. So in 2 weeks you guys will see it.
Sorry for the news, hope it made someone happy. I know how much people are hating this contest right now because of the delays in themes and tips.

it made me happy! lol because since it's for the contest, you will put much more effort on this, can't wait. Plus it's just two weeks, I could deal with that.

Hehe a week ago I was hating this contest for holding back so many themes, but as it draws closer I'm anxious to see all the themes that will come out of it. Hopefully when windows 7 is finally released you'd be willing to make a true windows 7 theme.

I thought that about the contest at first but then realized that a bunch of great themes will be released at once! Every contestants theme will be their best I'm sure and this one I will be looking forward to! Love Vista's looks but hate the hardware compatibilty issues. I'm sure a serivce pack fixed that early issue, right? I bought a new pc 3 months ago but ordered it with XP, lol... Love Vista's looks though. One of my co workers has one and I installed a cellular usb dongle for her. It was more of a pain than XP but has a beautiful interface. Windows 7 looks good but it's still beta. I was too scared to use the beta (didn't want to reinstall everything) , did anyone else try it out yet?

[Theme] Got Weed? JF1.42 RC33

Got Weed?
Ask How to get theme
*Requested*
Couldnt find anything that said I cant post this here.
Anyways if not allowed, im sorry and will take it down and replace it with a different theme as soon as i can.
I do not smoke marijuana (anymore) nor do I endorse the use of drugs (anymore)... to each their own.... as for me I quit a long time ago.

Very nice man. And, I can't speak for the mods or the site, but I can't see any reason why it wouldn't be allowed. Weed's not illegal everywhere and we do have alot of european visitors. Besides, it's not like you're distributing product. You're just distributing a picture.

i was thinkin of making a theme such as this.... but did think about the fact that it might be questionable...
i for one cant say your telling people to smoke weed... thats a personal choice.... i mean what if i made this bob marley theme and had a weed icon... what then?

looks very nice, i quit too, but i still am gonna use this theme for a bit

YEA MANG! bout time to see merrijuwanna theme and another for RANDUM
pot heads only
please if u don't smoke don't criticize.. keep it to urself it won't help..
Legalize weed

its official.. i love you in the most non gay way imaginable..
i should spark a j while i apply this theme lololol

LOL I asked and it appeared! Fantastic!
I'm going to "celebrate" this new theme as soon as I get home

sik werk Bro!
Lovin it!

Been waitin for someone to do this
Thanks! RA!
To the topic of weed:
Its medicine to some people and its natural, and its legal here in Cali for those purposes.

Great concept clock needs a little work.
Trust i never hate lol....

That's pimp dude. Gonna download this right meow.

funny theme

Like The Theme But It's Going To Wierd Having It On When My Teacher Takes My Phone Away Or My Parents Ask Me To Use My Phone. lol

my G1 will be wearing some green for St Patrick's Day

?
The theme installed to the phone fine however the clock nor the wallpaper change. Am I doing something wrong or missing something?

Here's a pretty sweet wallpaper to go with this theme.

[Theme] Uncanny X-men beta 2.5 jf1.42 rc33 {UPDATED4/23]

......this was a requested theme, for mimic so praise goes to him for the inspiration...added some more screen shots
http://www.mediafire.com/?k3tmjimjjya

Dude you alway have the best themes. Well theme that at least work for me

thanks appreciate it....i am going to change a few more things, just dont want to make the file to big like my others...

it looks good. a wolverine theme would probably look sick, but beggars can't be choosers so thanks for your hard work

if you have a problem with the update being too big try using PNG crush, i'm sure you can find it if you are a windows user(or something similar) i use linux and crush all my images before i zip and sign cause i ttend to make the images a little too big. i took a theme by me that was 11MB and got it down to 10.4 i believe and then it flashed just fine(i added fonts where eat space)

Rom Version?

i am going to make a wolverine one, unless someone beats me to it...the rom is 1.42 rc33

sweet! can't wait for that

ima huge fan of marvel and DC comics since i was like 4, and this is pretty sick. I was just wondering if u could change the the notification bar a little? You dont have to cause this would only fit my personal liking and well..not urs , and since ur the creator u should have it as whatever you like. Anyways. Great theme!!! =O

yeah i will change it, i made that one just for a preview,. i will make a better one .....

lol
So since I did request this lol and since your already making a wolverine theme, lol... can you feature gambit a little more... at least change the lock screen pic to a cool one of him...if you google "gambit wallpapers" through the image search there are some sick pics on the first page... there's one that just shows his and with cards (bootimage?). Don't get me wrong I love wolverine. Just like gambit more...also.. the security lock screen, maybe gene/ the phoenix or colossus

ight will do that, no prob

Good looking out!

Awesome Skin man! =) finally retired the ol Mario one i'd been stickin with since it's release (you dont happen to be the maker of that one too by any chance do you?). Funny story about the wallpaper used on this one -
Aside from House of M, Civil War - Uncanny X-Men and Age of Apocolypse i havent really read much X-men in the last 15 years or so. This wallpaper got me really curious cuz i never remembered Colossus having claws and Psylocke was already on the left for the Psy-Blade bearing female on the right to be her. So i went to Marvel forums and found out that these 2 indivuduals aren't actually X Men.
They're actually 2 charicter's from Top Cow's Cyberforce comic. Marvel recently did an X-men/Cyberforce crossover w/ Top Cow and this is what the artwork is from.
The Colossus-looking cat is a charicter named Ripclaw and the Psylocke-lookin chick is named Cyblade, (funny cuz not only does she look like Psylocke and have her power but "Cyblade" is a clear respelling of Psylocke's "Psy-blade" ability =)).
I'm looking forward to that Wolverine skin fo sho!! =) another recommendation/request i'd like to throw down is The Amazing Spider-Man. Any interest in building a theme based on the Spider-Man Comics? Maybe a wallpaper from Quesada's work on One More Day? =) You could probably do something wicked with the menu like webbing or something.
Once again, AWESOME work man. It took me a long time to retire that Mario skin and you managed to do so with this X Men one =)

Yo this theme FLAMES!!!! thanks alot

thanks for the complements, i am workin on the wolverine, and i made a spiderman one, but something went wrong and it mixed with a them i had on before it, so i am going to restart it....ninja turtles is another one i may get into....

[THEME] Robotech - Macross JFv1.5 Hv1.5r3

Built this theme upon request by a friend who recently bought a G1 from me. Being a huge fan myself I had a lot of fun w/ this one =) Features JrBourque's red VK. If anyone wants a port, this can be done relatively easy so feel free to throw that out there if interested.
http://www.mediafire.com/file/mimfg25tzmj/Robotech_Hv1.5r3_A2SD.zip
Aight. Decided to make the switch this evening so I ported my latest theme over. Ended up ranting bout a bunch of stuff that came to my mind after the icons of this theme were criticized. Here is the link and screen shots to spare anyone not interested bout the rant lol. To give credit where credit is due, I compiled JrBourque's Red VK into this build. Anyone who need's a custom VK should hit him and Diaztradeinc up asap. Quality stuff fo sho.
http://www.mediafire.com/file/gmyyzgnyxa2/Robotech_JFv1.5.zip
Thus far, posting this las night (in Hv1.5 form) I've only gotten one post of criticism regarding the icons... but I don't really care. I'm open to constructive criticism within my means and MO, but I'm not here to please absolutely everyone. I enjoy making these things, have a zillion different ideas for themes that I'd like to see on my own phone and will continue to post them up as I make them, for whomever might be interested in them (no point in keeping them to myself).
This criticism over my icons put a lot on my mind today so I suppose I'll take the opportunity to put it out there. There seem to be 2 destinctive types of themes to me - Graphic driven themes and Subject driven themes. By graphic driven theme I mean those like Aero and Gloss that are based on no subject but built from scratch, open completely to unique artistic creation to no end. By subject driven themes, well, that's self explanatory (IE Mario, X-men, Punisher, Spider-Man, Gambit, Megaman, Robotech etc. etc. etc.).
Don't expect any of my themes to be graphic driven themes. Subject matter inspires me to build these themes, not graphic design, and I really don't see that changing anytime soon. I really only do this for the enjoyment of seeing my work and particular subjects come to fruition and don't have much interest in pushing my graphic art skills beyond where they currently are. I'd consider my graphic art skills intermediate at best. My skills are not nearly up to par w/ other designers on here. I'm far more inspired to see themes based on my favorite comic books and anime (among other potential mediums) come to fruition than I am to take the time to create unique and original designs. I'm in constant awe of what other members create and share w/ the community. I'm not in this for competition or comparison. I'll let peeps do their thang while I do mine. Jus in this for my own personal enjoyment and there's no point in keeping the fruits of my labors to myself if anyone else is ever interested in running it themselves.
To speak more directly regarding my feelings about icons representing the individual apps instead of the subject matter... in building a subject driven theme, I feel if the icons don't represent the subject in particular, they aren't nearly as interesting. I guess I think of it in the terms of what a Desktop theme would look like (because, Android really is a miniaturized desktop afterall). Even if I extracted a calculator (for example) from the source of the subject (like a calculator that appears in an episode of Robotech in this case), it wouldn't be recognizable as representation of that subject unless it were a character holding a friggin calculator or something. And if an icon like that was made you really wouldn't see the calculator once the image was scaled to the small size that the system icons are.
My work being criticized as though it should be similar to other themes in this regard bothered me enough that I guess I felt compelled to rant and explain my point of view, (and if you're readin this, naw man, I'm still not offended, jus put a lot on my mind). Anyways. This thing is long enough I suppose lol

OK... but don't you think you could make the icons at least sort of related to the apps?

If I wasn't at such a loss for source material I would have. I'm not kidding. About 80 or 90 google image search pages later I was still at square 2 where in previous endeavors id be at square 6.
Besides, I DO honestly strive for that (my settings icon in my Megaman theme being a good example of that, it was the start menu of MM2), however, I compare my work to that of a couple other cats on here and their icons aren't too particular to the individual apps either.
I agree. It would be REALLY sweet to be able to be that specific but the truth of the matter is I'm decent w/ Gimp (photoshop clone, much better), but I'm no ace by any means. There aren't enough pictures out there to do such a thing in the way id prefer. Calendar/calculator for example. Don't know if either ever appeared in a robotexh episode but if they did, even though it was taken from robotech it wouldn't feel in accordance w/ the theme cuz it wouldn't be familiar looking at all nor would it be destinctively related to the subject matter.
Sorry for the novel lol. You touched a softspot for me, not in a way that I'm offended at all, more like I WISH I COULD make the icons in stronger accordance w/ the individual apps but it's just not possible.
Id actually be curious to see someone else's attempt at such. Do you know of a charicter/show/whatever based theme that's been able to pull this off well? If so you should point me in that direction so I can scope it out

Man. Ain't no other Robotech fans up on here? Really? =) guess I stand alone. Or maybe no one is running H's 1.5 anymore now that he's released 6.0 =) I'm actually gonna update my phone to JFs 1.5 update so I think ill be porting it anyways and when I do ill post the port as well I guess.

Would be nice if you could make a proper Samurai Champloo, after seeing this I'm sure it will be great

Haha I just posted on the other one. Do you have to wipe for this? I haven't flashed a theme in a good while, also like i posted there is there any way that you can make a Samurai Champloo? After seeing this i would jump on your work of SC

Ha ha ha. FUNNY thing you mention that. I just decided this evening to start workin on a Cowboy Bebop theme. The robotech theme was on my list and when my friend bought a G1 from me and said "hey you should make a robotech theme" I took that as a sign. Now a dif friend is buyin a G1 from me on Sat and said "hey you should build a cowboy bebop theme" (which was also on my list =)) followed just a few hours later by "man a Samurai Champloo theme would be awesome too" lol. So I'm thinking at this point w/ 2 people already requesting both, both being on my list, that I can't make one w/ out doing the other ha ha. Once my Cowboy Bebop theme is done and released I'll def have to dive into Samurai Champloo as well ha ha.
Oh and, no wipe necessary. What build are you running? If you're runnin Haykuro's 1.5 jus flash it and it should update fine (in which case you'd want to grab the Hv1.5 theme on the other thread). Same w/ JF's too. =)

Ah perfect! Damn i wish i would have known this earlier to beat your friend and have you make the Samurai Champloo first but a man can wait I'm running JF1.51 ADP. So maybe you can work on it... whenever you're done a nice thank you will be heading your way

Yeah. there are some major complications regarding 1.51 US that I wasn't really wanting to get into. I'll prolly look into it further but ultimately the only real dif between 1.5 and 1.51 was MyFaves and Amazon for me so I decided against updateing. And from what I understand, flashing a theme built on 1.5 onto 1.51 US doesn't really work right =(. If someone figures out an easy way to extract the framework-res.apk I might jump on board. Otherwise I might actually look into 1.51 UK (which is also compatible w/ the JF1.5 themes that I'm constructing I do believe). I'm pretty sure that the only thing dif about US and UK is that the US f/w has My Faves, which isn't really a big deal since you can adjust your faves (if you even have any) using t mo's website.

heh, CbBb, my all-time favorite anime/show/whatever. I was thinking of one a while back, thought of making it real subtle, in-so-that only a fan would know it was anime/Cowboy Bebop. Heavy use of the opening credit style, pictures of the swordfish, profile silhouettes, etc etc etc.
