I have an idea for Icons, quick links, notifications, slider, and bottom soft key bar that I would like to see come to life.
The problem is, I'm not a dev, I do not have Photo shop, and if I ran out and bought it, I would'nt know how to use it.
SOOOO, My idea with your talents, and this would be one rockin package. I might even learn a few things along the way
I was looking at a pic of a etched glass globe, and said WOW that would look so nice as icons/theme on my phone. I wonder how hard it would be to do.
Here is the pic of my insperation. If your interested in taking this on, please contact me, and lets get the ball rolling.
Cheers

Hey, you dont need to create a whole theme for this i guess, you already have all the tools in this forum to do so. E.g Just use Hello00's glossy theme and a glass icon set, then use the above globe image as your background.
See my screenshot, the clock is hel00s gloss clock and the icons are Dinik's Anastasia set if i remember correctly. It will look sweet with the globe.
Try and out and let us know how u get on.
thanks for the tip, looks nice.
But, I was thinking of making the images for the glass icons in an etched look, and doing the rest of the elements IE, soft bar, slider, clock, ect etched as well. The flip clock is probibly already out there (or something close to it) and shouldnt take to much to do.
The rest how ever would take a lot of PS time.
Ah, i see what you mean.
Im sure somebody will be able to help you with this.
It will look good when done.
Ill be watching this thread, good luck with it.
Very nice concept, far beyond my abilty, but I will look forward to a capable designer to create these.
its not so easy...you have to know 3d editing...like 3d max...there is a 3d ball and a texture placed on it. it looks only good...because the globe texture need to be round...but if you place something not round...like home...it gonna look horrible.
honestly, I was not seeing a 3D image in my mind. more like taking your Anastasia template and putting a etched image in the layers representing the app.
The idea of a 3D image would look nice, but be a lot of work.

Hello everybody,
I did search but no luck. Maybe it has not been done yet.
What I would like is to have a mania 2.1 theme that looks exactly as the sub-menus look. White.
This would be good for several reasons:
1. You would actually see your screen in direct sunlight. I suppose you know what I mean...
2. It would give the phone an elegant clean look.
3. It would give the good old manila a new look but at the same time it would not be exaggerated or too colorful.
I would be glad to help any developer who is interested, but unfortunately I don't have the coding knowledge...I know design though and would be glad to provide any kind of image manipulation services if it's needed.
If this already exists please help me with a link
Also, what we might need if a white upper and lower taskbar theme to make this complete.
The HTC Fuze (for AT&T) stock ROM includes a white theme. It shouldn't be too hard to modify the art a bit to remove the AT&T-ificiation, and make a nice white theme.

Personally, I have experienced that white text/icons on a black or black-ish background give me sufficient contrast for daylight use. Perhaps you should turn off your light-meter and set the backlight lumens to 100%.
Thank you for your reply. Yes. I was looking for something similar... The only difference would be to have it the default touchflo 3d sub-menu color scheme.
It would also help me if someone would guide me to a thread that is about changing the text color...that would be useful too. If I could change the text, the only thing that remains would be the slide-bar which is easily customizable.
Thanks
As I was looking further I found a thread and it seems like he has only just started the work.
Here's the thread:
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=79323
And the image:
that reminds me of chocolate vanilla poptarts. and now i really want some poptarts!
edit: by the way that doesnt look like manila 2.1 (i typed vanilla at first, hehe, damn delicious poptarts!) like he wanted. but it looks like a white background and a white slider canvas and a black flip clock. how hard could it be to get those up and working?
Yes.
All we would need would be:
1. Black text - which I couldn't find
2. A Custom Slider - which is not as important
3. A black clock which can also be found somewhere - not too important either.
And it seemed easy to me too, but unfortunately no one has made this before. If it is that easy please point me to a thread where I can get the black text from (for manila 2.1) and I'll be happy because the slidebar isn't that bad this way either.
ask in the manila 2.1 port thread. im sure someone will get you some black text.
hey look what i found. retro eh?
Yeah, retro indeed. I asked in the manila 2.1 port thread but they seem to be too busy with answering other questions and didn't take the time to even respond.
I can understand them because they have enough on their mind...poor guys work a lot for free so you can't be mad at them for not answering.
I just hope that one day someone will take the time to change the manila text to black.
I have been looking for this sort of thing for a LONG time. Since my TouchPro2.
I have tried to do it myself in the past using HDWalls but to no avail, the slider icons were always off center and I didnt know how to edit the clock.
My idea was to have all the slider icons be DHARMA Initiative logos, have the clock be identical to the hatch clock. With the clock starting out @ 108:00 then flipping to the actual time, or even the red/black hieroglyphics to start then flipping to the correct time.
This could also be a little out there and impossible to do, but I was thinking, was doing an animated wallpaper of maybe a jungle background with black smoke moving through it. Or maybe just DHARMA logos falling...or white and black rocks.
DHARMA Lady by Geronimo Jackson as a ring tone.
This is just random ideas, I would be willing to take any well made Lost/DHARMA theme done in anyway.
Ive seen Lost themes for iPhones and Palms, and would love to have one for WM on my TMOUSA HD2.
Thank you all for your time...hope someone could make something as I am sure I am not the only Lost fan out here that would love this sort of thing (would also be willing a give financial compensation thru PayPal for any that rule)
160+ views and no responses? maybe I am the only Lost fan out there...lol
Its a very hard request, probably why you dont have any replies like the clock idea, I dont think thats possible, well not too anyone, but to the average/intermediate user thats hard, you would need to talk to someone like santod040, co0kiemonster those kinda guys
thats what I figured... worth a shot tho...lol I honestly just wanted custom slider icons more than anything...I tried to do em myself but they always came out off center.
yeah, this would be very nice
sometimes i use lost-wallpaper, but it isnt enough for me
lost it up!
ur not the only one.
i tried making an animated wallpaper using logos from this wallpaper... but I did somethign wrong along the way cuz the logos wouldnt drift. =/

At last! The release that no one has been waiting for...
A Homepage 'mini-theme' based on all of my 'glass' ('flip' or digital) clocks.
Each of the attached cabs installs one coloured glass 'mini-theme' to your Today/Homepage. The mini-theme consists of the flip clock and the other 'furniture on the page (i.e. the background for the Weather, the Calendar and the mini-Date/Time bar you see when you scroll down to the quicklinks).
I am only attaching a small selection of screenshots to the first two posts to save space.
Today Page #1...

Today Page #2...
You can install each 'mini-theme' as usual using the cab files attached in the next posts. Uninstalling is done, as usual, via Settings/Remove Programs. If anything in the previous two sentences doesn't make sense to you, you probably should not install these cabs...!
The 'mini-themes' work on Manila 2.5.1920 because that is what I have on my HD2. I think they should also work on 1921 (but I cannot guarantee it) and I haven't got a clue about other versions.
The original wallpapers are not mine. But they are available on this forum from the usual suspects. I cannot remember who posted which wallpaper, so credit goes to all of them...
Glass Icons, slider etc. are from Jaguaralani and Dinik respectively.
If you only want the clocks, you can find them at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=650245.
[Update]
If you would like to see what the 'marble' and 'tiled effect' clocks look like, you can find them at at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=675912.

Some more...
Just cabs this time...
More cabs...
If anyone knows how to change the colour of the font on the Today/Homepage from white to black, they might want to try this one.
I wouldn't recommend it otherwise...
Have you been stockpiling these badboys?
I've not seen such a huge release since I last went to the Curry House.
The difference being that on that occasion, I had a bad dose of the squits. Your release was far from that... You my friend are an artist.
Thank you.

Thank you for the glowing praise (and for sharing those Curry House images...).
Yes. I have been saving these up (or too lazy to post them, if you prefer the more honest answer).
I have one more release (No. Not the Curry House variety) to make. Hope to complete the set over the weekend...
I would be willing to donate to anyone who can do this. I did search but could not find anything that I was looking for.
Honestly I think a wallpaper would do just fine. I dont really care what is in the background I like darker colors.
Any how I am looking for the firefighters prayer.
It might not be possible which if it isnt not that big of a deal but you never know unless you ask!!!

The Fireman's Prayer
"When I am called to duty, God, wherever flames may rage;
Give me the strength to save some life, whatever be it's age.
Help me embrace a little child before it is to late;
Or save an older person from the horrors of that fate.
Enable me to be alert, and hear the weakest shout,
and quickly and efficiently put the fire out.
I want to fill my calling and to give the best in me;
To guard my every neighbor and protect his property.
And if according to Your will I am to give my life,
Please bless with Your protecting hand,
My children and my wife."
something like this? let me know if you want any changes. try and be a bit more specific.

THAT IS AWESOME!!!!
Thanks now for the noob question do I just go here on my phone and save it then apply as wallpaper or how do I do that?
Everytime I try to make something my wall paper it is always to big for my screen if that makes sense?
Looks great though hope I can use it!!!
you can e-mail it to yourself, you can plug your phone into your computer and drop it on the sd card, or you can go to this site and download it that way.
when you go to set it as wallpaper you will see a green box over the image, resize that box with your finger so most (if not all) of the wallpaper will fit inside of it. then hit set wallpaper.
Awesome thanks figured it out is their anyway you could just put a black background white lettering?
Sorry to be picky lol its just hard to see my clock now haha
Anyway how are you doing this? like what program?
this one has smaller text than ^ that one ^
i'm using photoshop by the way
I collect the watches and love them to death. Would sure love to have an awesome clock widget on my phone that matches my wrist. I found one in an HD2 thread but it is for CHT and I don't think that works on my phone running Myn's 2.2. Here is a pic of what I am looking for. Maybe this is already out there, otherwise I would be willing to cough up a ransom for something like this too.

Where did you get the images of the dials? I've got a Black Seal Automatic that I wouldn't mind seeing in a widget. I'm looking to get into Android development and this might start me down that route.
Here is the thread I found the image in.
◆◆◆ [Clocks for CHT] ◆◆◆ Lume up your Home Tab
It is set up for Cookies Home Tab for the HD2.....never heard of Cookies Home Tab....but doubt it can work on the Evo.....

I would ask in the thread you found the attached image for the base .psd file used to make the clock faces. It should be just a matter of getting the hands on there as well (maybe include a picture of your watch for reference or again ask the original dev for his .psd files for those as well) which probably wouldn't be too hard to do. If you get all of that try asking iamthebigcheeze if he could throw it together for you. Like I said with all the right image files already created it really shouldn't be hard to throw together a flashable for this clock.
On a related note, I'm a watch lover too but I'm a Tag Heuer fan
Thanks. I will put in a request on that thread an PM the developer for that stuff. I will let you know what happens.
BTW....fixed the link in the above post too
