[Q] Is It JUst Me? - About xda-developers.com

I was just wondering, and i didn't know where else to put this thread.
Who here likes the 2010 xda them better than the 2013 xda theme?
i like the 2010 xda theme, mainly because the 2013 theme look bland, and unoriginal. if i was to look at another forum the theme would look pretty similar, but the 2010 theme looks original and you could easily tell its xda-developers.com
just my opinion, whats your opinion?

IMO, so what if it looks somewhat like other sites? It's usefulness that matters. And when you get used to the new theme, you forget about looks. It's clearer also

:good: It's usefulness that matters. Very well said

Moved to About XDA section.

it was just my opnion, i was wondering if anyone else felt the sameway

Due to the fact that I'm only on my phone, the majority of the time I use the app, but I do jump on desktop version sometimes and from what I've seen, I prefer the 2013 theme to be honest. But I'm not sure about the functionality difference though.

I find the 2013 theme way too cluttered to be useful. It's not just because I need to get used to it. Everything is all over the place.

:highfive: i was starting to think i was the only one, but its alright because xda gives you an option to use the 2010 theme!!!

The fonts are too small in the new theme...
Other than that, I'm all good with the new theme...

Xda 2010 theme rocks.

The 90's wants its Bulletin Board design back

simple, smooth, easy on the eyes
I use to not be a fan, but it has grown on me over the years.
Very Nice
Not much of a valuable subject for a thread but since it's here, this is easy on the eyes, very smooth, and does not seek to put it's design above the content. Sorry to disagree, but this forum needs no changes to improve it's information delivery. Maybe others do, this one doesn't. It's easy to ready and find what I want, what more could you ask for?

Well, that's not true. Check the Android Hacking: Themes forum and Bboy does blacked out versions. I'm a transparent person, myself. I curse the day Impaler went missing.

No, like the app makers are putting more privacy stuff in that makes it harder to work with.

Community Theme

We have a lot of good themers in this section and was wondering if everyone was interested in creating a community theme. We would need to decide on a theme to start with, then divide up the different parts of the themeing. Then we would need people to port to all the roms. Anyone interested.

Sounds like a great idea. probably would have to vote on the colours.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using XDA App
Exactly vote on a color scheme for the framework and then have different themers develop different dialers, keyboards, and other apps that can be flashed separately to the liking of the community giving everyone different options.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
I really like this idea. It would really bring a much more cohesive working environment for this community.
Have you tried PMing the other popular themers here? I think that would be a great first step. As well as voting for colors via poll is a good idea too.
Ya we need more orange n white along with a glossy Copper or a charcoal grey n yellow with black doesn't sound bad either way I'm here to test let me know wassup

On another note, we barely have any original themes. Most of them here are ports, its easy to drag images from one theme to another. I'm just saying it needs to be a lil more original around here

Nice glad to see some interest. I just feel like when i am doing a theme by myself i get one sided, and i lose focus . I think with more ideas from different people it will make the theme even better.

I don't have much time lately, at all :/ but if there are a few small simple items you guys need me to do I'd love to take part in this somehow.
Also, even if it will be original, a lot of the stuff from my Daybreak theme was 100% from me, so if you guys want anything from it, or even like it just recolored, let me know and I'll work it up for you. Best to email me, I dont ever see I have a PM on here...

Go team!
If i can port sexy theme that community loves than i rather be a porter. As long as the theme stands out. I don't need to be original because we can combine other theme and make better themes. And some ppl just don't have time to make it original! XDA is all about sharing so as long as i get permission to port it i will be porting it because i port sexy theme No offense/hard feeling.

I completely agree with this. The ports are ported for a reason since they were so complete and established over on the I9100 forums. Themes like Sensation and Black hole are too fine to not port. Which I love btw.
Keep doing what you're doing man, the more ports there are, the better options for us users and ideas themers can take with their own themes.

[APP]IPhone Launcher

What you have here is an amazing iphone like launcher which greatly exceeds espier launcher. Check it out at:

What you have here is a phone that is already awesome. F iphone.
Why would you want that
Google should ban crap like this from the market oops I mean play store
Thanks apple
some people like the launcher of iOS coupled with the versatility of android. nothing wrong with that.
with that being said, this works suprosingly well, just needs options for customization. Menu button does nothing. folders would be dope too but its still in beta stage
This launcher has no settings or any kind of options, just like the regular iPhone, go figure.
They should implement a Launcher menu, but I guess they didn't think it was important to since iPhone users usually stick with stock...EVERYTHING.
oh yeah...it'll be much better. The devs are working on adding alot of recommended customizations

Why would u wanna ruin a perfectly great phone with this type of stuff.... Tsk tsk

This launcher doesnt have anything better of both worlds. It's dull, boring, and unattractive, then again that's just my opinion
P.S . But I know its a WIP, so it has the potential to get better.
MIUI is identical to the iPhone, you don't see people bashing that ROM now do you? Kills iPhone in every aspect IMO.

XDA 2013 Theme

I Started This Thread To Talk About The New Theme
So What Can You Say About The 2013 Theme??
For me, the 2013 Theme is Professional Looking, but lacks the ambiance and feel of the Spirit of XDA...
I Am Still Adjusting, but 2013 Theme is much more simple, and surely will benefit everyone, especially people with not so strong internet connection..So Whats your insight?:highfive:
nice.. it look much more better than 2010.. and it look much more professional..
New theme look great............more pro..

yes, it will take some time to get used to because 2013 theme is leaned more on the left
