looking for some opinions on icons
here are some icons I have been making started out with blackberry bold icons but started to make icons so here are the ones I made some still are like the blackberry bold but made them more brighter looking for some ideas and good opinions but not to go to far from the design
i like them, simple and nice. what program are you using to make the icons?
Very nice, minimalistic and simple, yet stylish. Well done.
i like simple and clean and i have adobe photoshop elements i had for a good 10 years and i use paint.net and gimp but the icons i did in photoshop i have a hard time going to a new photoshop
I love those Icons, they make a nice interface for the phone.
nice nice.. need em.. lol
Love em. You need to make a theme using these. Preferably a completely dark theme so that the icons stand out a lot.
I like dark backgrounds and I have started a theme I hope to have it out by Saturday.so far I have gutting good replies but my concerns are which my faves icon do you think I should use and do you think the settings looks ok the way it is or do you think the gear needs to be bigger or I was thinking no gear and add a wrench. oh decisions ineed to make up for my stargate theme lol
I like the myFaves icon with the people, but I don't use myFaves at all so my opinion on that doesn't really matter xD
Which icon is the Settings one? The one that looks like a Toolbox? I think that you should make the icon for that either a wrench or gears, but honestly the toolbox will be good enough to identify it since there would be text underneath each icon.
<3 them kron. just waiting for you to release them
Very nice, very nice.
what size do the icon have to be 46x46????
48x48 is the icon size
Great icons! I like the "people" icon for my favs, they all look very nice. hurry up with this theme, lol.
Changing Market app icons?
Does any one know if you need to do anything special to repackage a market app icon? I tried changing an icon for cinema player and signed it with the test keys and it wont install. it says it installed but it isn't.
i would love to know as well
The market icon is in vending.apk
You added your icon to the music app close it, reopened it to make sure it saved it, then resigned it and I didnt work? If you are having trouble signing files try the Stericson signing made easy thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=473580
I don't mean the market app, I mean apps from the market like cinema or shopsavy for example.
i get same error. I can change any of the app icons in the update.zip but when i extract an app with astro and update and sign, it wont install. I even tried the desktop install tool. No luck.
Someone correct me if i'm wrong but wouldn't you need access to that developers source code to do this.
this is for people who don't won't the bugs with magic rom but like the looks .theme still in the works and added some htc magic wallpaper on post two. don't need to install rc33 light or move sound files .

it will look cool if u can
and the phone things need sum work
but good job its a good theme
Like the theme just think the gesture lock is too dark also maybe change the zoom buttons on the. Web page
first i am going to change the lock screen then change the zoom buttons and phone dialer
thas cool i switched to this theme from gloss because it looks really sleek and easy to see without making brightness 100
updated first post with picks of new lock screen and zoom buttons .working on a new dialer now

i did have the icon you have in it but i like the one i have .both icons are used depending on the magic build.i think the one i have looks good with the calender and contacts icon but if more people like the one you posted i will add it when i add the dialer first i need to make it.
This was a smooth idea making this theme its cool as hell more up to date than the original default theme.
I like that icon so i made a few edits and will be adding to my bettercut icon pack. Thanks
the new icon is nice i agree its funny the first theme i started out with was deep black now im back to ur theme are u going to change the gesture unlock kinda hard to see the circles
i am going to look in to the gesture unlock but i am going to do the dialer first i have had no time today working on my bike.manup456 i like the icons you made for your theme would you mind if i used them in a harley theme when i get the time to make it
Can't wait to see what u can do the g1 keeps getting better and better thank u devs
I have been searching the forums for an icon pack that is just plain bright white and compatible with CM9 or AOKP(although I really don't know that compatibility is an issue with icons, maybe someone can correct me there) and am not finding anything.
I'm really not looking for anything too fancy, just basic icons that are a bright white instead of the stock icons, similar to what you see in the Black Infinitum theme menus. I'm not really looking for much, just standard apps (gmail, calendar, messaging, phone, play, contacts, email, camera, maps, navigation, calculator, browser, voice) and maybe a few others of the really popular apps (facebook, dropbox, scorecenter, etc...)
If anyone could point me to icons that would work I would appreciate it, if there are none if a dev could take it on I would also appreciate it very much.
Thanks!
Found these on XDA
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=913747

That second link is almost exactly what I'm looking for, but same as you I don't find a download link. Thanks for the links nonetheless!

You can buy droidicon on the market for $5. It has a number of icon packs available in a number of colors and styles. It was previously called launcher pro icons and docks and meant for lpp, but you can use them on any launcher that you can change icons on. You will have to edit them yourself though, you can't install them as a theme or pack. You download the icons one by one from a list. I use the white icons on it for aokp with nova launcher, pics for the doc and text for the nav bar, they look really good. I would post screenies but I'm running miui.us atm. Hope I could help tho.
MOD EDITED

I used that for awhile... some of the icons are pretty generic, but the custimazation options are limitless, which more than makes up for it...
I really like that! I am going to give it a shot.
[EDIT] So I installed it and REALLY like these icons. They are pretty run of the mill designwise, but I wasn't looking for anything too off the wall anyway. What a great find, thank you!
I installed this theme called torridteal a few days ago, and by far this is the best theme ive ever seen for CM10, AOKP, PA.
But the wallpaper that came with the theme wasnt as awesome. So i decided to make a wallpaper with the same swatches, just without the torrid teal text on it. After using that my desktop seemed very empty fo i added some texts. My friends loved it and told me post it on xda so here i am.
If u want the same wallpaper with custom text, i will be making it but dont expect me to reply instantly because i am in grade 12 and i have to work hard to get into a good uni....u know what i mean...
so here it is...
P.S. i am running PA 2.54
and the hex values for the status bar and nav bar are:
status bar #8B0E3D37
NAV BAR #CC0E3D37
both nav bar glow and button color are pure white....
ITS MY FIRST POST ON XDA SO PLS BE NICE
Just a friendly heads up, attaching images compresses the heck out of them, so i'd host them elsewhere and link to it
Thanks for the advice..
But it seems that i am new to xda so i am not allowed to post links...

I am not sure if this is in the right spot but it said Q&A so thinking its a good place to start. I am looking to find out if I can change the status bar icons to be colors. I amd running [JB:CM10:HYBRID][OFFICIAL]ParanoidAndroid 2.55 for T989[18 Nov 2012] (Love it btw) so I guess the best way to word this is I use go sms pro for txting and the icon that comes up when I get a txt is a very nice noticable green color and I know I have a txt in a quick glance, I also have the facebook app and when I get a notice from facebook its a white and so are my mail and all the other icons so it is hard tell the diffrents between them. so I was wonding if there was a way to change this or if there is a mod for it. if anyone needs more info I am happy to post it. Thank you
If you would like to modify some of the notification bar icons you would have to modify some images in the system framework of your phone which would be difficult if it's your first time.
The easier way to change them, is that since you're using a CM10 ROM you can try out some CM10 Themes from the Play Store. Click here to view all of the available themes.
All the themes will help you change the overall look of your phone, that includes the notification icons. You will just need to apply the themes with the Theme Chooser application. Cheers!
