Finally after much beta testing and making sure everything works as it should, I think I finally have a release version. The Auto Browser is enabled but you must remove the Browser.odex before using the browser to keep auto rotate going. To do this open Terminal Emulator and get root access, then type in rm /system/app/Browser.odex Again, I did not design the initial icons, I got the source for the icons from dene at www.superevildesign.com off his deviant art page, originals here: http://skm-industries.deviantart.com/art/CarbonSOURCE-PSD-87588028
who was kind enough to give me permission to use it for my theme.
Looking for ideas on the color of the status bar as well as a default wallpaper. All default icons have been replaced with this theme.

Theme http://cid-4a44cb45d6e338f8.skydrive.live.com/self.aspx/.Public/update.zip
update with new superuser no more browser.odex file
update for rc33
I changed the status bar, added 3 new wallpapers (3 variations of one design) notification date is now white, and changed the menu icons. These changes are only going into the new rc33 version, with the number of changes made, rc33 lite is needed or you'll need to have removed removed the media folder from system already

Icons look cool, i think i a lighter background would look nice.
For the notification bar definatlely something transparent.
yeah the background is one I had downloaded, would love some ideas for what to use as the default. and I like the idea of a transparent status bar with a lighter background, I would also like to make the icons on the music player larger somehow
i like the background, but i think you need to(well, you probably know) change the icons up top in the notifcation bar like battery and whatnot to match the theme.
I LOVE it!!!! Keep it up and release it!!!!! Please make sure that browser icon worksa for both reg browser and auto-rotate version from Koush. I've heard that it can be a problem somtimes. Overall it looks great. Can't wait to see it released.

Yeah, I use the auto rotate browser so it will be included in the release version for sure
You did a great job on the (dare I say) iphone-ish icons. It's too bad we can't make a truly transparent taskbar because this would look excellent with one.
Looks great! keep it up.
Looks great! I cant wait to see the finished product.
Really nice, one of the best so far. I love the icons!
Wow, great theme. Hope you keep it up and release it.
That is tight as hell, great job man cant wait till it comes out!!
Here is the Kspec Karbon theme with Carbon glow icons
PM jdwme if you want to be a beta tester
dang that was fast! Not all the icons are ready yet, I needed it put into a theme to test out my apk files so I can see if anyone else was having the same issues I am. Anyone who tries this let me know if it causes problems with your phone receiving calls.
Looks really good bro let me see what i can do for a wallpaper for this.

Thanks, can't wait to see what you come up with. wallpapers are my weak point I guess lol. When I first started with the icons I had a wooden one on there but it just didn't flow
awesome work. When this is released it's going to be a hard choice on which theme to run. The icons are very nice!
that is a hot theme man. can't wait until you release it.
i definately like that theme, keep up the good work
Can we get the tab transparent and get the clock (top right)to glow or able to remove it??
Otherwise it looks real tight.
Hey, I am working on a motoblur theme for CM, and I have almost everything perfect. EXEPT the text on all of the buttons and stuff is black against a dark grey button. Can anyone help me out with getting the text on the buttons to be white so they are readable?
Also, another problem I'm having is with the backgrounds. I moved all of the small and normal backgrounds from motoblur into the launcher.apk of my theme, but they are not showing up in the list. Can anyone help out here, either?
Thanks everyone!

i have wondered about the font color as well for a while.
but for the wallpapers, make sure they are named the same as the wallpapers currently in launcher.apk
yo yo
hey man. yeah those wall papers have been pissing me off. i finished two different themes, and that launcher hindered both, thus causing me to start alllll over again. im using this 2.0 sht now, its pretty sick, theres a lot of new **** on 2.0, like a bad ass dock, with all these settings widgets, etc, my theme should be up a little later today. keep and eye out. and Freeky, pm me, lets get this collab going down!

im not 100% sure but I think that irrenhaus' advanced launcher allows you to actually add wallpapers to it .... also i know that if you build Launcher from source you can add your wallpapers in that way

This is a simple theme for CM's Live Stable Eclair 5.0.7-DS. MrInc_Theme_CM-5.0.7-DS It has a Black Bar. Some of it has been collected from other Themers. Some has been created by me. I start with CM's files and replace PNGs only. The 5 APKs I edit are Framework, Launcher, MMS, Email, and Settings. The wall paper I used is from Ubuntu a few versions back.
5/20/2010 - Test7 changed the ballgame on me. I thought I was having problems getting the clock color to change from black to white. Turns out, it is now a feature of Test7. After flashing my theme you will need to go into Spare Parts and change the color of the "Date" and the "Clock". The fun thing is now you are not limited to what I choose for you. You can choose from several colors. Kewl! I also discovered which .9.png to modify to get the search to have a black background. Enjoy!
5/27/2010 - Updated to include a couple of edits to ADW.Launcher.0.7rc3 Just to keep it inline with my taste. It is a full version with my theme edits applied. Awesome work AnderWeb! Donation coming your way. Link below.
06/05/2010 - Here we go again. I can't help myself I've started down the road on the new CM-5.0.8-DS test builds. My slightly themed ADW Launcher hasn't changed and it still works well with the new test1.
06/06/2010 - I changed some more icons. I didn't like what I had done to the bright popup PNGs. I changed that back to the white instead of the biegie-gold. I also cleaned up the CD image in Music so it doesn't have the black background. That is now transparent.
06/07/2010 - Updated for CM-5.0.8-DS-Test2. Fixed the USB Debugging notify icon. Somehow, I don't know how far back, the DPI for the icon was set slightly off. It was 71.986dpi instead of 72dpi. (go figure) I changed the USB Connected icon color from my previous yellow to more of a gold color. I changed the Bright popups to a more opaque white with a gold beveled edge. I like it better than the biegy-orange color I had before (Dirty Blueshirt liked) and I like it better than the transparent white. Not much else changed except CM has incorporated ADW's Launcher into the Test ROM (three cheers for CM!) So you don't need to flash the ADW.Launcher after my theme.
06/10/2010 - I had some problems with Test3 and Test4. I ended up having to wipe and reflash. I don't think it was anything to do with the Theme. I was having some lag issues when trying to make or answer phone calls. All is well now. Since 3 and 4 happened so quickly I ended up skipping 3. I had to make some adjustments with my files and locations to match the new Settings layout including SpareParts and ADWLauncher. I really like having that all together now.
06/19/2010 - Nothing much changed in my stuff. I just updated it to work with CM-5.0.8-DS
It's old school... I haven't got into the metamorph yet.
Copy to SD
Nandroid backup (always)
Flash the zip
Enjoy!

Really enjoyed this theme on t4. Nice work indeed.

Thanks for your work again!

Widget
pretty awesome looking theme can someone tell me where to find that 1X4 widget with the weather and time? I've been looking all over for it ... thanks in adv
mine is actually weather widgets 1x2 and digital clock 1x2 the one in the market with the clouds on the icon. The one you are looking for is actually Beautiful Widgets. I was looking for it too.
I was using the Weather Widgets flip clock but it constantly stopped keeping time. They have a weather service to help stop that but it was killing my battery. I'm having other problem with weather widget now so I may just drop that completely and use the Beautiful Widgets clock.

The black background of HTC's Sense looks really lo-tech to me, like they're not even trying to make it look decent. In my opinion, they could have at least given it a gradient layer.
Anywho, is there a way to get a transparent app drawer background without changing launchers? I've really grown to like Sense GUI and all it's useful little widgets
If this isn't possible, can the app drawer background at least be changed to a custom image of some sort? Or as a more general question, can the drawer be altered in any other way, shape, or form, besides the column/row number?

you can change your theme, by using uot kitchen, just change the part you like , in your case transparency under options...
here is a link : http://uot.dakra.lt/
I don't know. I've used UOT Kitchen before, but I've never come across any such option. Would you, or anyone else, mind telling me which tab to look under?
Tried it in my rom, but it didnt work.
You need to decompile rosie.apk and change colors in xml files.
Custom images not possible.
Google it on xda forum.

Oh, well. I guess I can live with a black app drawer then I'd have tried doing that, but since a more experienced person couldn't do it, I don't see why I should bother with it.
@b02
You misunderstood, I meant the app drawer, not the pull-down status bar, but thanks for the reply =]

can i request a 4x4 paginated semi transparent app drawer please
with semi transparent status bar.
thank you.
i like the one in here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21115614&postcount=1 it's just that it's 4x5.
i cannot post to that thread...low post count.
thanks!
You could go launcher ex it has that option to change the app drawer background
If you use Go Launcher, you lose the Sense widgets which is considered by many to be one of Sense's biggest features... And the OP mentioned that he liked the widgets.
And this thread was ages old!
App Drawer and Dock
Has anybody got a zip that will make the app drawer and dock transparent. I'm running sense and no ROM.
Hi,
I am looking for a hint how to change the color of the bar icons in my CM7.2? The icons for WLAN, Battery and that stuff comes in a disgusting turquois style, I hate that. I would like to have the green color back like in the old version! How to do?
BTW: I use Launcher PRO, and not the AWD launcher. I tried it with AWD launcher and themes, but this only affects the "front", but not the system in the main bar on top of the screen. So I do NOT want to check themes or something, I am satisfied with it like it is, except color.
Thanks! ;-)
In app draver should be theme chooser, select system there.

Did you read my posting!?
I do NOT (!!!!!) want another theme!
I am satisfied with this one, the standard from installing.
I just want to change the main color of the CM System, (used in the battery icon, the WLAN-Icon and other stuff, right on the right top of the phone for example) from turquois to the green and old one.
You can certainly change the colour by editing framework stuff. But I would like to inform you that it is not easy but not impossible.
You will need to use adb and stuff. Sorry I don't remember the exact details/step.
Plus be warned if done incorrectly it can semi-brick your phone. I will insist its better to look for other CM7 themes for theme chooser. The are hundreds of them.

You dont have to install another theme, it should be in the themechooser already named System, but CM7 defaults to their own Cyanbread theme.
You could use UOT kitchen too.

Just kidding. Variety is the spice of life. Hopefully one of these guys will be able to show you an easy way to accomplish this.
