Background EDIT Requests - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II

Hey everyone,
I have been with XDA for some time now. Helped out here and there on threads and what not.
I am starting this thread to take requests for people wanting a background edited or changed up. This includes color changing, adding/removing objects, etc.
I can make some from scratch BUT I am not gonna start doing this right now (enough request and I may start a thread for that).
REQUEST RULES!!!!
1. Post original image and link to image. (Link to original image if possible. This is important!!!)
2. Explain in detail what you want changed.
3. Static or Scrolling?
4. PATIENCE! lol
I will upload files to my Photobucket account. Just click the thumbnail of the picture you want to try and it will open in a new page. Then from Photobucket, click "Options" to the top-right of the picture and choose download.
Other than that. Happy posting! :highfive:
Thanks Button Goes A Long Way
EXAMPLE: Here is a photo I did for Sideous. His request was to get rid of the rainbow ring and make the ring blue.

Any way you can change this to dark cherry wood color?
http://img94.imageshack.us/img94/6763/83123woodhdblur.jpg.
And if you make your own creation with it including the cherry wood color and holo/jelly bean/ICS blue I'd like to see that too.
To give you an idea what I did with it on my wallpaper I rotated it so the bend was on the left and put all my icons down the left side of the screen to make them look like they're floating.

Let me know if this is to red or to bright. I can de-saturate and/or make it darker. I also shrank the file to 50% of it's overall size and made it 300dpi vs 72dpi... HD in a sense lol
CHERRY WOOD
ICS BLUE

Didn't want to quote you to avoid reposting pictures... I like both... the cherry is a little bright but is there anyway to combine the 2 uniquely because those colors really pop out together... forgive me if I'm being a pain in the butt...I also have done Photoshop for a long time 14 years or so but never dove into much else besides human photo retouching and business logos. I really liked that wood background and wanted someone else's flair here is the exact way I set it on my wallpaper

Don't stress yourself and you can leave it at the same size as the original file as my DPI is set to 192 in tablet mode on Paranoid right now and I love the extra room the original file shows amazing definition even in 72 DPI...the ones you uploaded seem pixelated but that could be my stupid self not viewing in browser but rather the xda premium app. I know that's been a problem for me before but again don't stress yourself out over it. If I have to stick with the plain cherry wood I will I'm not too picky

[Q] What would make a perfect theme?

What would make the perfect theme for you?
What color combos?
Flat or shiny?
Flat popups or roundish popup?
Dark or bright?
What is it that you guys would like to see in a theme? I would like to make something totally different but i have so many ideas in my head i just cant seem to put everything into one. Post what you like but cant seem to find.
This can apply to AOSP or Sense roms.
Darker themes tend to be nice, though with 'highlights'
Think dark colored car, and epic under carriage lights.

Wow, this thread definitely shows how everyone wants their android different.
I would say
Blue, blue...and more blue
I myself don't like glass icons. Makes everything look too uniform, like an iphone.
Honeycomb theming. Blue glows on dark bg.
Bdub25 has an aosp rom here on xda that fits all this criteria. Would love to see it on sense, or sense w/o rosie.
I love the way virus themed the rosie for airborne. (Sorry if pic is blurry. Accidentally selected small size upload via xda app, now it wont let me upload another)
Btw, thanks for asking xsmagical.

I love the theme builder that is a part of VaelPak's ROM's.. Gives you the option to change status bar icons and screen animations.. its very easy to use and it signs the zip file for you, just gotta go into recovery and flash.. But that defiantly is a feature that I love.. IDK if something like that could be used as part of a theme but it would be pretty sweet!
I'm working on a new theme today called FireZone. It will be a red theme for HDPI phones for now. I will try to have screen shots and maybe a Beta APK up sometime today.

I appreciate your offer and realize that you probably get requests more for creating wallpapers, but I was hoping you could help me with a "resizing wallpaper" problem. This is the original image that I want to make into a properly sized wallpaper for a stock T989;
However, I can't get it sized so that the center desktop, (desktop 4), has the entire image of the band name centered correctly. No matter what I tried, the B and the I are always cut off, and the partial letters appear on desktops 3 and 5. Is there a way to size this correctly without losing either too much of the image, or messing up the aspect ratio so that the band name is centered cleanly on desktop 4? (It almost seems like the answer would be to extend the image right and left a bit.. I don't know..)
Thanks..

This is doable, are you using the stock Touchwiz launcher?

There is a great tutorial in the android section under themes. The font color requires an xml edit tat would probably change more than what you want and cause other text to be difficult to or impossible to read without other modifications that i don't know how to do.

also, i think i edited my last reply too late and think you didn't see me asking if you were going edit this more?
hey, i just realized there is a small bug when recieving calls.
the pulling menu images doesn't have any colors, and the words are cut off.
I think Im going to be done with this for now. But you should pick it up and port the whole theme. Would be a great start in learning how to theme. Pm me if you have any theming questions and ill help you out where i can.

[MOD] Custom Holo dark background ~ Do it yourself! [Any ROM]

I thought i would post this for everyone, even if it isnt a massive deal and probably not something most need... We were all noobs once, so if it helps someone get their phone a little closer to what they want... Or if it helps get someone into making a theme... Then i cant say having this up is a bad thing at all...
So its a simple MOD that will allow you to add your own holo dark images to any ROM... Yes, this will even work for those of you running a theme... Where you maybe don't like the holo dark image(s) used...
Simple instructions for a simple MOD...
- Download "MyBackground.zip" from here and save it to your computer!
- Download the "HoloImages.zip" from here and save it to your computer...
- Drag and drop the two images from "HoloImages.zip" onto your desktop and edit them however you like! (Id stay at 720x1280 or stock 500x500)
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
- Now open each Image and edit as you wish! I would recommend a simple program like GIMP or Paint.net to edit .png files...
- Once you have your image(s) just right, save them...
- Now open "MyBackground.zip" with 7-zip or WinRAR (WinfRAR seems to work better for VRtheme stuff)
- Go into:
Code:
vrtheme -> system -> framework -> framework-res.apk -> res -> drawable-nodpi
- Add your new images (it will override the current images)
- Once added, save "MyBackground.zip".... "As"... That means change the name of the zip and save it as a new file...
- Drop this into your phones storage and boot into recovery!
- Backup... Duh...
- Flash...
- Enjoy!
The absolute worst thing that can happen, is it simply won’t work... I suggest a backup, just because its a good idea... That said you really can’t even boot-loop if you follow the above... If the image(s) are named wrong, or the wrong file type... It simply won’t work... The holo background you had previous to a your flash... Will simply still be present..
NOTE: If your ROM had a transparent holo, this MOD will NOT break it... If you flashed a theme with a transparent level... Again this will NOT break it... Simply set your image(s) to the desired transparent level...
pics would be nice

How it looks is completely up to you... All theme work is trial and error... What you think looks great on your laptop, may not look great in the background of your settings or dial keypad...
Here is a sample showing stock black... To a more Touchwiz blue... As i think this is where Samsung went wrong... A simple attempt to match their blue inside the background completely changes the look of Touchwiz... Its cleaner... Its vibrant... Its still classy...
But in the end, it really does loop back around to you as a user, and what you think looks good... I can post screen shots all day, and never once hit the mark with everyone...
Very well said, but the you actually did exactly what I wanted Lol. I wasn't sure exactly what our changes would replace, wasn't quite sure what holo dark images were. Thank you very much!

Feel free to post a screen shot of what you did... The mod is getting downloads, but no one is showing their work off...

Not quite your mod, but did tell me where the images for the background came from, which turned on the bulb on how to do this

Yep as you can see, I thought I got them, but missed a couple. What's killing me is that navigation bar

Is there a way you could post the background image that you used in this screenshot? That looks simply perfect but my computer is out of service and I would love to use it for my note 2 background in settings
