I want to Know what people want in a Theme.
Post your opinions...
Personally
I have been looking for something that completly revamps TF3D. I am tired of the same Home, Message, Email, Internet, Music, ect, style Icons. I want them to look different which the only problem is Conveying the same message. If I made the people Icon a bear, then that might be confusing. The message icon could be a pidgeon with a note tied to its leg lol! jk. I just want it to be different. I think it would be cool for the battery icon to be a chocolate bar or a cooking that gets bites taken out while it drains or something lol.
I am just asking what people want in a theme because I am creating my own and would like the input. It would also help the Real theme creators to get a feel for what people want.

BUILD YOUR OWN THEME
Ok folks, here it is, a change to make your own theme. As cool as I think I am, I bet you guys have some pretty good ideas for themes so Im making this a cooking thread for your own person recipes.
These are the ingredients I need:
- Build type, RC30 and ADP1 are preferred but I can make RC8 as well
- Icon pack, you can find any group of icons to use in an size, this means application icons, status bar icons, just anything you want but you have to supply it
- Image for the status bar in portrait and landscape.
So ya, I am kinda figuring this out as I go so post what you want made into a theme and I will see what I can do.
You rock!! I gather a list for ya and post it soon.

This is a pretty cool idea, though I suspect you're gonna get absolutely flooded with requests
If you need files sizes or types let me know or ask and Im sure a bunch of people can answer.
You do know there are requests for themes here.
You can start with a few of those
gucci theme
i dont really have any real ingredients as you put it jus diff icons and use the gucci colors
Well I was hoping it would be more for the people who know exactly what they want and dont know how to put it together than just the people coming up with new ideas. So if you know you you want my carbon fiber status bar, with the silver status icons from Blue Star 5 and defaults icons with one of your own, I could take those things and make a theme out of them in like 30 minutes.
Just close this thread if you would rather me pick it up in the other thread.
What you stated is exactly what i had in mind. Ill pm with my "wishlist and icons" and we can go from there.

I really like your Karbon theme, id like the status bar just grey like deep black, your status icons , and this battery meter. is this possible?
http://www.filehosting.org/file/deta...parannoyed.rar
Not sure but i think i saw that icon set on deviant art. might want to take a look.
The status icons from Karbon are great, just the batt meter change.
here are a few icons id like included:
D3ath star=settings
Kerry King guitar=my music
internet=browser
email=email
not sure if you are changing the settings context (menu key menu) with pics
craniac=dialer
flame=messaging
book=contacts
I have an idea....this is gonna get carried away lol
Place all pics in a zip folder with a text file directing what should get done and upload a zip ONLY.

Im building it now, I assume you want RC30 right? And if you can get those icons as PNG files with transparent backgrounds it would be best, if not I can see what I can do.
And just to confirm, the status bar in a dark color will make it so you cant see the text, if thats fine its fine with me.
To respond to Mikey1022, would it also be ok to host them on a site like photobucket and link the pic in the post or would you prefer zip files?

I would just say use your own judgement. If someone will look at the theme and be instantly reminded of another one you pulled from you might want to give a lot of credit to it, but if it was just a platform to start with and its mostly your own creation I would just mention who the theme came from. Just think about it as if it was your theme being used by someone else. Personally its a huge compliment.
you are right perhaps the light grey status bar from macdroid would be better.
Yes RC30, sorry for the lack of info.
I am really contemplating dual booting fedora or mandriva, to better acquaint myself with this stuff.
Ya, I was going to do it with this one but it was way too dark until we can change font colors.
good call, i hope you guys will have access to changing font color soon.
Thanx for doin this, til i force myself to figure it out on my own.
Just for everyone's knowledge, these icons are not my creation. I have collected them over the last year or so from different icon packs mainly downloaded from deviantart. this is mainly a personal theme, that i find appealing for me to look at.
Ask How to get theme
damn i see randum access is going hard on the themes.... im diggin the majority of them, some id add much more to, but i like tha idea to have multiple mini-variations.... hopefully people would invest enough of their free time to learn to edit and create themes, its not that bad and kinda fun... especially with the end result and feedback is like a pat on the back
quick question, i now have access, and im sure u do as well to all of Better Android's apps, since we are theme makers they reimburse anything that we buy from them... i used bettercut to change up the icon, would this help in your travels? just place the pngs on the sdcard and change icon > pick picture....
i kno it doesnt permanently keep that icon changed, but thought id throw that out there, wish it was a way to impliment permanent changes or as open home changes skins, maybe icons 2
** Edit, posted on wrong theme lol . Damn tabbed browsing.
Nice theme
I'm running this theme now, but i LOVE Fallout and wish we could get a full working system like this for Windows Mobile:

We should have a thread where people can come and ask other peoples opinions on what they should put in their theme. For example, im currently working on a Porsche 911 GT2 Theme, and im wondering what people think I shuld make for the clock, im thinking mayb a tachometer, and im unsure about what I shuld make for icons, but for the pull up bar im going to make it the shifter of a 911 GT2. I need ideas, and feel free to ask for ideas if u need some too.
We do it's create a tile: [Theme] *Name of theme* *Rom version* W.I.P.
you will definately get peoples ideas
Yep thats the way to do it.
Great idea, maybe have the clock transparent with the porsche logo, and a wallpaper of the dash. Good luck with the theme.
Haha, I didnt even think of [email protected], I guess I shuld, n the clock idea isnt bad
this is a work in progress, trying to find and make some different icons...
sephiroth is the boot image and cloud is the loader
http://www.mediafire.com/file/oolyt1tzjhj/finalfantasy7.zip
Hehe very nice. Are the dialer buttons supposed to be materia?
If you can customize the "force close" message, have it say "Sephiroth has to kill Aerith."
this is on my phone cant wait for icons
Sorry if I'm being spamy. I would like to make few sujestions. I would like to the line on the wall papers gone... idk it just bugs me and also the batteery icon should be the color og green material it blends in a bit to much. Oh maybe put a hint of red from the summoning material. But even if u don't make these changes I still love ur theme
i will make a few changes, no problem
ff10
make a final fantacy 10 model lol that will be even better lol
Please insert in your title what rom version this theme is for!??!
It doesn't work on JFv1.42, freeze on T-Mobile G1 Screen, that's my experience.
It works on jf. Rc33 lite. I'm runing it right now promise. Also if the dev reads reds this battery color is slighty off center.
it works on lite or regualar, if u removed the stock tones and notifications....i know the color is slightly off, only my second theme, so i am slowing down now and taking my time making them, i was over excited finally being able to make them....
I was just given u a feed little back. If this is only your second theme than I can't wait for your third. U are very good at this. This is an art and one in my opion you are very good at. Sorry if it came off like I was putting down your work. Take all the time you need to make this theme even better than it allready is.
no apologies i didnt take ur comment like that, thanks for thecompliment, i am working on a hulk theme, i actually have it done but i have to replace some things, i liked gloss suites apps bar, so i used it, but i am going to make a different one and , see what people think...
i wish you would come with some icons for this theme... but oh well its still cool
icons are coming, got wrapped up in making other ones...i will update in a few days....
Hey i have a few more things to sort out on my theme but i just dont know how to. Was wondering if anyone could do the finishing touches for me please. Inbox me
update. infact i have given up on trying to do something which is more technical then i can achieve. im uploading the theme for someone to hopefully take the project on. all i see is green or blue themes and the odd orange one has popped out but most of the themes are unfinished. you still go into stock apps like clock, contacts, gmail and so on and find the stock blue and gray look with the stock blue highlights. what i was trying to do is have a blend of black white and silver so that you could use any colours on your homepage and so on without being effected by the phone colour theme anyway if someone like minded but with the tech is up for taking it on then please do and just keep me updated if u finish it so i can use it
http://www.multiupload.com/B49FW9L9W0
come on people. for me im at a dead end but i know for some of u the last mods i need are easy. its just some last touches needed. driving me mad cause i cant settle for anything less then perfect lol
