To all,
Could we keep all customization in one thread? Either this on or one of the others so that icons, themes, mods and links to mods can be kept in one place. I find it very difficult sometimes to hunt through xda for something.
Thanks all!

Hi guys. I was wondering, if any of the cool designers on here would be good enough to knock up an XDA icon for me to put on my upcoming site.
I am after an icon 128x128, with no background so I can see the background of my site. Example (albeit, something different): See Attachments.
Thanks

I second this
Hey i also second this,
For those of us that want to link to xda developers forum from our site with a snazzie icon but i was after something like this
google.com/images?um=1&hl=en&client=ie9-lb&biw=1321&bih=790&tbs=isch%3A1%2Cisz%3Ai&sa=1&q=twitter&aq=f&aqi=g10&aql=&oq=&gs_rfai=
i am good at photoshop dont get me wrong but i cant make an icon for the life of me.
Checkout narcarsiss.deviantart.com
so if anyone upto making an icon for XDA i and many more would greatly appreciate it
i apologize in advance if i posted this in the wrong place. i do a lot of searching but very little posting. (honesty) anyway, after countless searches i can't seem to find a them for Phonex that would complement the HTC home on my Tilt. i'm using a diamond style theme and background on this QVGA device. i did find some themes at modaco.com that look like what i want but the problem is once installed the zero button doesn't work. on any of them. thanks for taking the time to read this. you can see themes i was referring to here: sorry. turns out the moderators wont let me post a link.
Moved as not theme release.
Hi all. I have found lots of good mods on this site and finally took the time to consolidate the ones I like into a single package. I also went through and colorized a lot of the notification bar icons. The file is too big to uplaod here, so I have provided a Rapidshare link. The following is included in the file:
1. Smooth Sense Icons
2. Additional colorized icons
3. 50% transparent notification panel
Please let me know what you think and/or if you like this. I have attached a couple of screen shots for your viewing pleasure.

I saw these first in the Virtuous thread as I am running 3.1 and was previously running incredible theme with older versions of virtuous and waiting for someone to do some themeing with newer framework. Are you using newer framework? Not that I'm sure it matters as this is not as extensive as the incredible theme in which it replaced lots of recently updated system apps.
But I do have a question for you. Any way to get rid of the location Icon which I have become use to not seeing in my bar? All though it is attractive.
And a couple of the icons like the headphones, headphones w/mic and tty are jumbled up just as they always have been in smooth sense. I had broght this to jeric's attention long before but was not worth correcting I guess.
Great work buddy!

No, it does not use the new framework. As I said, it is a something I put together with mods I use and like that are already out there. I am no expert on mods. I colorized the icons so it would look nicer on the phone. I can look into getting rid of the location icon, but if you want me to do this, please PM me and I will look into it. Thanks for the kind words.
I have recently started looking into theming and I was wondering if there was a repo somewhere with icons etc. that generally match. atm the moment I'm kinda of pulling from these theme and the other, there a better way to do this? Eventually I'll probably start making some of my own by in the meantime while I'm still dabbling I was hoping I could find these. Right now I've got about 5k images from the various frameworks of themes that I enjoy...Tell me there's an easier way.

There are a few people who have posted guides such as the following:
https://docs.google.com/Doc?docid=0AcdxIJRSH9ypZGZzc2pxNDlfMjdnazk4OHNxZA&hl=en&pli=1
This is a pretty comprehensive guide from people like Manup and Stericson.
Or check here:

I think most of it is the same, but may fill in some extra gaps, and is a forum, so you may find some additional questions answered.
I just started theming as well. I originally was just replacing images as well. But the guys doing the big work actuall create their own images (sometimes image creation, as well as coloring). In addition they usually theme the apps (not just the images) but also go in and edit the xml files to create color coded themes throughout the framework and apps. It's quite a bit of work...
Anyways...check out the links and good luck!

I have seen that {Warez site reference removed} and observed there are very much customisation things for miui roms and it's really appreciable :fingers-crossed:..
but the bad thing is the {Warez site reference removed} which I doesnt know(translator is also misleading) , I can't even take the attachments from that forum since i don't have an account,it's not letting me to create one even ...
so iam here asking to suggest me a thread which is discussed about miui things in English.,
if there isn't any till now..why don't someone starts it.(like a person with better miui rom/framework/UI knowledge.),just initiate a colourful thread and let it set onto the pace for discussions like major things can be found in reg. to MIUI (in English pls)
iam really very very much considered about customisation things of miui roms
hope someone considers this.,
waiting for someone to start an English thread for the MIUI ROM/UI/FRAMEWORK/CUSTOMISATION discusion
Take a look here maybe...
In short, you could use: MIUI Themes, Substratum, CustoMIUIzer and GravityBox, at least for some quite easy UI customisation.
Well, there are also generic tools like KWLP and KWGT that you could expand with Tasker automation.
