Hey Devs,
I am not usually into themeing, I really like stock looks often.
But today while using the SGS III keyboard, I suddenly thought How awesome would it look like if the Samsung Keyboard had the same "finish" like the back of the device or the front near the home button.
Horizontal metallic lines - If anyone wishes to create such a theme, I'd be thrilled to test it
Bye for now
I would love a white keyboard like the one on tab

Try the SwiftKey beta 3 from their website. That has a blue theme and it is also a great keyboard. I haven't got my s3 yet but going by previous Samsung keyboards I guess it is a good option

Same to be said about smartbkeyboard pro.
I'm actually using the galaxy theme on my galaxy s3 but it it has many colours and a much better predictive text than the 'bouncy' stock.
Also tried swiftkey which was good but couldn't get used to the non standard layout

What Do you mean by the "bouncy" stock?

The auto correct for the stock keyboard often changes the words especially shorter ones it abbreviates it with no way of saving your petsonalised words without going into the personal dictionary first
Example being every time I would type in MB or GB et it would place a full stop before it without giving me an option to do so. I referred to it as bouncy as I was constanlty going back and forth to correct the punctuation myself which sounds pittiful but is annoying when you can't type quickly !
The only thing I do miss about the stock keyboard though was that it had an integrated swipe function without changing it in the settings. Now that was handy for texting quickly when you only had one hand

So no takers? Thanks for the suggestions on the alternative keyboards but for those of us who actually "like" the stock keyboard is someone willing to take up the task?
It would be highly appreciated.

The latest version of swype has a new "personalization" option to change the aspect of swype. It comes with some variants, I don't know if one of them has the trace lines in blue. Take a look at it...
I have a themed swype apk that has blue trace line. Though I did download it a while back so it's probably not the newest version.

Just got my nexus all setup the way I want it and installed perfect keyboard pro. Wanted a ggood split keyboard, and did not wanna pay for the tab version of swift. Does anyone have a theme with black background and holo blue keys with black letters? I just cannot dial in the color right on the custom setup.

Loving it so far. Stock Android 4.2 Keyboard comes a close second. I keep the Samsung default keyboard for handwriting purposes.

I don't know what it is about SwiftKey, but I really, really don't like it. I like the stock Samsung keyboard the best, but it's unusable for me since it doesn't have autocorrect. Therefore, I'm using the Android 4.2 keyboard.

I would get android 4.2 keyboard but I bricked my phone this past weekend trying to cwm recovery to flash it. And you can't flash it with twrp for some reason. I also tried manually installing which didn't work either. Idk. I really like SwiftKey 3 though. It's perfect for me.

Swift key all day.

I really don't like keyboards that cant use finger dragging for input. I like swype but have been using the Android 4.2 keyboard for the past few days. I like the 4.2 with the swyping function but still have to play with it a bit before it's a keeper. It has some things I don't like as far as a few common things on the second keyboard screen. A comma is one of them. I might be able to change this but have not tried at all....wait...the comma is also there if I hold down the period key.

Absolutely loving the SwiftKey 3 keyboard. It's freaking perfect. No wonder it's like the 3rd or 4th top paid app. Definitely worth every cent.

Right now I'm using Smart Keyboard Pro with a hot pink theme. I love keyboards that ur able to theme cuz I'm a pink-a-holic! I know Swiftkey has a pinkish type theme, but my fav pink color is bubble gum or hot pink. If Swiftkey ever gets a pink color theme like those I'd definitely switch back to it cuz that is one awesome keyboard. The auto-correction/predictions is out of this world fabulous!

I really like this gray with neon green theme. It looks very clean and the keys have a sort of blackberry look to them which is a very clean look that I'm quite fond of.
