I've been on XDADev for a cool minute now, but could never figure out what to contribute till now. I'm embarking on a little project of making a Manila2d theme using Super Mario as the main subject. The thing is, I'm not too sure what to use for the Internet, Music, Programs, and Camera icons. I've gone thru quite a few Mario sites (MarioWiki been the best) looking for something to use that made sense to use for the icons, but nothing caught my attention. Any suggestions? Appreciate it!
hey, this is something I've been looking for!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! well, i would recommend using the icons from super mario bros, paper edition game. If I'm not mistaken, I think those are the ones found on that site. there is a tf3d mario theme floating around here on xda, but, obviously, doesnt work for us qvga'ers. I notice that it's been a minute since this post, but if I can be of any help, let me know. btw, another attempt at the super mario theme but for 3d is here.: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=3352259

Hiya all.
Im creating a Modern Warfare 2 theme for the HD2 and I could do with some help.
As you can see from the attached images, I have the bg images sorted but I think the clock looks out of place.
Ive look on the forums but I cannot find a clock that seems to suit the theme.
Anyone got any suggestions ?
Also, Im going to change the icons and slider to MW2 themed so if anyone has any good ideas for these let me know also.
Thanks for the help !
For an analogue clock try here...... I was thinking that "stealth 1 or 2" would fit well............
I have noticed there are a couple of different watch arts used in the game. Maybe you could get a screen shot of the one you like and post it here, and ask to have it made for you. The artists here are really good about helping out like that.
There are a lot of fun things from the game to incorperate into a theme. Just need to be creative. like an simtex icon for text messaging. There are even a few perk icons you can use for the slider icons.
Good luck
Ive got all the Icons from the game. Symbols etc etc.
Ill see what I can find and post a few ideas
Looks good mate, good luck with making the theme, i love FPS and to add a theme into my phone is great, just like the fallout theme.
Nice work!
Def subscribing to this thread!
Good luck with the production!
Just wondering how is this goin as far as developing? I requested one but I for some reason got the cold shoulder when I asked if someone would kindly do me a theme.
I want to change stuff like icons, the flip clock and other cosmetics. I've got loads of ideas, but no clue of how to make use of them. I am absolutely new to creating themes, but my creative and GIMP skills are superb, if I may say so myself. So how do I do it? I need some kind of program right? Will the theme work on any ROM?

Would also like to know this. I just got the new MIUI rom and there's so much I want to change >.<
This would be very interesting - so I´m still waiting for good posts.

Major bump, I am also, very interested in this.
well i rarely leaves comment on any site but your blog is really so amazing that i can't stop myself from making comment on it...
I made some quick Launcher Pro icons for Brooklyn's finest plumber, and some of his crew.
To be totally honest, I just took the icons from this site:
http://ph03nyx.deviantart.com/art/Super-Mario-Icons-for-Windows-80735574
He said it's ok as long as it's for personal use, and as I'm not selling these or taking donations, I would assume it's ok. If not please let me know.
And then I used the super major brothers font found here:
http://mfs.sub.jp/font.html
Google translate said that it stated it was ok to use for non commercial purposes
and finally, I suggest using this as your launcher pro dock:
http://launcherpro.droidicon.com/docks/mario-blocks-full-1539
I included the dock in the zip, but stop by that site and rate it 5!
If you have beautiful widgets, theres a nice 8 bit clock and weather theme that go with the whole theme.
I attached a screen shot with the widgets and the mario live wallpaper
So far, I'm pleased with how they came out. If you are a mario fan, you may want to check them out. I have a lot of mario sounds too, but I found those through various sites and have no way to prove they are kosher, so I can't post those, but overall, I'm pleased with my super mario themed phone!
A few are previewed below, along with the zip of all of them. 19 icons and the dock are in the zip. I tried to get all the basics and a few extras. If you have any requests or suggestions for new ones, let me know.
I don't use icons , but I'll try these. Awesome thanks. Anyone got Level 1-1 for a wallpaper?
looks great!
These are awesome, man! Good job.
Cool icons...for anyone interested there is a mario live wallpaper in the market that would go great with these!
Swyped from my HTC Evo 4G on the MetroPCS 1X network!
ok, there are just a few things I need help figuring out, and the problem is, as much of a PC/computer dog that I am, I am so lost...this Moto Droid I've got is amazing, but it's almost too open sourced for me...
I'd like a cool theme, maybe...but what I really want to do is have a nice clean app for the weather, see a glimpse of facebook, a smooth running music player (haven't even used the built in one yet, but I like shuffle and choosing where the song is playing at, if the built in one has it, awesome), I need quick links, and a grid for my apps that lets me put a ton of apps in one spot, because as great as it is that I have 3-5 screens for apps, I want just one, lol, and I need to have a percentage indicator by, or as the battery icon, not as an after market app...preferably with better than by 10's or 20's only...
If I did a theme, it would just be so that I can have more colorful or neon-esque icons/app icons...but not the be all and end all...
I'm taking suggestions, and would love help or explanations on installs or developing myself...
Just an idea for some of the more creative people out there, I know this wont get a lot of people interested but its an easy enough project (i think) as most of the work is already done.

used to do alot of cool stuff with retro styled games and ideas, but have since decided to close up and open source it all.

My idea was something like a live wallpaper using the canvas cycle demo. i.e.
http://www.effectgames.com/demos/canvascycle/
Could be as simple as choosing a specific scene, or even something more clever like choose a base scene and it changes depending the time of day and the weather.
Im an engineer and programming in java isn't exactly my forte, just giving an idea out to the awesome creative minds here on xda.
Thanks.
