Theming (another question!) - Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm taking MattedBlues and changing all of the blue to red, while keeping the gray aspect (it's looking sexy so far.) I'm stuck though, I've been using hue-saturation to edit the colors to from blue to red, but I've come across ALOT of non RGB colored layers. How do I change their colors in GIMP? It's impossible!!! Atleast what I've tried had no dice.
Any help will be granted a +1 thanks!

Changing highlight/select color

So the rom/theme I'm using uses green for a highlight/select color, but I like the blue (or possibly purple or something for some). I was wondering what elements where would need to be edited?
It's not the only thing I'd want to edit, so really the starting point should be sufficient.

You need to read the how to theme threads. Your awnsers are in there. The green highlights arte either controlled by images or xml code. Everything is found in the framework-res.apk that would need to be changed. In order to edit an xml file you need to de compile the apk. Images can just be dragged and dropped using 7zip our winrar

The theming how to has been really great so far, there is a section of the How To that lists all the tools you will need her. I am working on switching my color from blue to red! I am playing with shades of red and trying to figure out a way to change the highlighting shape on the keypad.. want to change it from a square / rectangle to a star.

I cracked open the framework-res from emotionless today, gonna have to try it on my desktop instead of my netbook so I can do editing. Thanks for the link, think I stubled across it (way too many sites/forums and some are so nonspecific)
My next challenge is bootani, I broke the one on baked snack 1.6 somehow.

There is alot of information about this in either the Extreme kernel thread or the ACS Rom thread.

blue overscroll to orange

Hey guys,
Do any of u know how/what to modify so the blue overscroll can be scanned to orange?
I'm stock rooted and not looking to rom/deodex to get custom themes and stuff on there...just the blue to orange change..
+10 orange like cm7 would be nice. What about all of the blue highlights

Shoot a PM to one of the themers like overstew, they'll probably be the best to ask. Its somewhere in the framework probably, but they'll know where
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
go to system/framework. Open framework-res.apk. Open res folder. Open drawable-hdpi folder. Put the attached images in it and overwrite.
Thanks crawj. And question for anyone that sees it. What's with any thread mentioning cm7 or its progress being locked.
Edit....never mind. I see.

New Theme Requests

Hi All,
As you know I was the one who brought you the Sensation Theme and more recently the New Senzation ROM. I am still working on that project, but honestly am getting bored with Blue and Green Themes.
Therefore I ask that you as a community recommend some different themes for me to try and port. Please include a link to the original.
Look forward to your ideas....
How about a dark purple and black theme? With no battery % or a gold and black theme..
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Back in my HTC Hero days, there was a white and dark gray/ black theme called GTX and the exact opposite called XTG by signals23, also another was the Steel My Elegance theme from Gomorrah (sp?)... would be nice. Let me see if I can find any links.
Edit: Links added.

Its a green theme but not like the ones weve seen so far, so its a 50/50. The same person also made these 2. Well, ported anyways.
Emotionless Beast, one of my favorites from the OG Epic. Thanks.

Silver and Black would always be elegant. Just my .02 cents worth.
I will be coming out with a group of themes... and no, none of them are green or blue In about a month I would suppose.. maybe sooner.
I would love something with pastel colors (not girly, just pastel). Don't just focus on one or two colors, try three at minimum. I've always imagined a theme along the lines of this Kirby game. Without all the super bezeled/embossed stuff, too, because too much starts to look tacky
I'd also love a darker grey theme (with very delicate gradients) with accents of light orange, lighter red, and mustard yellow, etc.
Maybe a theme with the statusbar on the bottom of the screen
Man I've been photoshopping for ages, I need to just learn to theme for myself
I would love to see a theme with deep purple, bright turquoise, and hot pink on black. It looks tropical and awesome in my Hancent app.
Something multi-colorful...I agree about the three or more colors idea.
I like the silver on black idea though, but silver is metallic and would have to appear dimensional in order to truly look silvery. Something like the ObsidianAlloy clock theme of Beautiful Widgets. Otherwise it would basically be black and light gray.
Thanks for being open to input from others!
I would like to see a matte/carbon fiber theme (with maybe some very minor silver accents). I think it would give it a real simple, and elegant look.
Similar to this Matted blues theme but with Carbon Fiber/silver accents instead of blue.
Grey with turquoise would be sweet

Theme Information
Hello Everyone,
Just to reiterate I am not a themer myself, I am just a glorified copy/paste specialist. Therefore what I am looking for is existing themes from other android device that I can port over. So far I have seen a few and looking for more to help decide. Thanks.
How about something like this without the battery % http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1445494

I would LOVE to see these ported. These themes are to die for in my opinion. Although they have green/blue, they also have orange/red. The orange one revamped would be AWESOME. Especially if you made a lot more items orange accented and darkened the orange just a tad so it stands out.

[REQ] AMOLED wallpapers

Looking for more wallpapers that complement our amazing screens - mostly black with a little color preferred.. or black and white.
I have a small collection I'll be attaching to this post tomorrow.

Forgot to add in OP that I have already looked through most of Wallbase..
OP updated with some nice wallpapers.
I like those, I usually just do Google image searches for different things. These are all Icelandic volcano eruptions. Also check out zedge app they actually have an extensive selection

Those are sharp.
I have a bunch in Dropbox. I think there is about 60 in here. Mostly blue with black to match the theme I use. No volcanoes but here's a lightning one I like a lot. Help yourselves.

[Q] changing colors

I was wondering if you can change the color of the site to something dark. I know you can change it from white to yellow, I believe it's classic & modern. I thought there was a dark with light text a while ago. maybe that was a different forum. Seem to be on this forum a lot lately and the on screen time is killing my battery. Just wondering. Please & thank you

If you are using the XDA Premium app, then you can change the theme, also XDA as a whole is surpose to be getting a new look this year, this might include some theme options.
Does the premium have a dark theme?
