The theme I've been working on is taking way too long, so I thought I'd share some of the custom PNG files I've been making for others to use and incorporate into their own themes.
If you would like to share as well, please make an animated GIF or thumbnail sheet along with a link to the files and I'll try to add them to the OP.
Don't be a scumbag
If you are using somebody else's stuff, get their permission to distribute them BEFORE posting.
If you use any of the content shared by others in your theme, get their permission to distribute them BEFORE posting.
Anyhoo, here are some Gingerbread-ish files customized or created by me.

Wow, that makes me want to wait for your theme...

The items I posted aren't themes themselves, but image assets to put into themes.
I'm working on one, but I've been repeatedly sidetracked and it is taking forever.
Like I said in the OP, I thought I'd share the custom PNG's for anyone who wants to incorporate them into their own theme.
As for assembly, there are numerous "how to" threads throughout XDA. Theming Android isn't as hard as it is tedious, but I wouldn't recommend it for a "newbie" especially since the Tab's backup/restore procedure isn't as easy/safe as on on other devices. At least not yet.
Hi ZoinksS2k
I'm trying to port VA Green Theme from I9000 to P1000. every thing is OK, except the Settings menu's background[Image 4]. I was successfully changed the sub menu, quick panel, status bar and drop expandable menu.
Do you have any IDEA ?!
????????????????????????????
Thanks

I have searched for themes (although admittedly not all that hard as I am searching on my Vox on EDGE) and all of the custom ones I can find are very visually busy and/or hard to read.
I just want onto that is nice and simple with no unnecessary words, logos, or anything else.
But I want it to display:
MRU
profile
next 2 appts (I'll settle for one)
SMS/MMS/email
time, date
Anyone know where to find some?
Well since I couldn't find any I just made* my own. (*made meaning compiled and tweaked, not created)
Here it it: (for a first try, I think it is not too bad)

I would if I knew how.
SUper!
Hi CHillin,
I am also on ROgers. Can you tell me what is your "receipe" for getting your home screen installed with wich plugin etc.
Regards,
JL
I think this is all you need.... I think.
I used Facade, Endless (attached), HTC Home (attached), and a pic I took using with the Vox's cam (attached)
Colour Scheme: Endless: Blue
Wallpaper: IMAGE_004
I have attached the xml file, that I Think will give you the layout. Since I can't attach xml files I added .txt to the end of the file name. So simply delete ".txt" from the file name after you download it and it should work.
Actually I think you will need this one too.
Hey everyone.... I was having trouble finding some good icons to use for the Sprint shortcut launcher. Since I am artistically challenged, I was able to find a bunch of .ico files that seemed pretty good. I will post a picture of the first few that I put on my phone here. If people are interested I can convert the rest of them and post for everyone to enjoy.

Also I am taking no credit here for the actual artwork, I believe they originally came from a german forum, not sure who acually made them.
So yeah, just let me know if I should post them all here or not.

Interested.

I am interested!! As far as I am concern, I actually like to make my kaiser as diff from the 'original' as possible so that it can be more original (??). Ha2.
Hello everyone,
I'm skinning my keyboard and so for it looks good IMO, but I want to change the fonts.
Here is the photoshop PSD I made:
{
"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"
}
This is what is how it looks on the phone:
I want the upper light grey row(with 1, 2, 3 @, etc) to be entirely removed or invisible and the black text should move up some pixels and preferrably be in bold instead of regular.
The thing I want most is the upper grey row with alternative symbols removed, then I can edit my images to place them under the black qwerty.
I know how to edit the XML's but I have no idea where the data is stored and after which byte sequence.
I hope someone can enlighten me on this (ohsaka?).

There threads in the themes and wallpapers section of the forum about editing the keyboard.
I wonder where, beause search only showed up this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=512285&highlight=keyboard
which isn't what I'm looking for.
This thread should be moved to themes section..
However I appreciate the work you're doing
Hope you'll find the solution
Actually this is development because we're changing sources, not images...
I suggest modifying the google keyboard since sources are available. Look in resources/inputmethods/LatinIME

I think that the two keyboards are not comparable
Moreover Google one only supports English
damn can't wait for someone to help him on this!!
Been trying to figure this myself a while now. Wanting white text.
I know there is an older version of HTC_IME without the long presses, not sure if you can still find one somewhere, maybe off an early H build?
are you still workin on this project too
how do you get to edit the xml?
Is anyone interested in an icon set like this? This is what I've made so far.

Looks great!
Keep working!
used to use this theme on my ipod, can't see myself using it for my nexus though... nice theme nonetheless.
Posting to express interest.
Looks great!
I don't know what you've planned, but would be great with icons for these functions/programs as well:
Phone
App drawer
Navigation
SMS/MMS
Browser
Market
File Manager
Documents
Gallery
I know it's a lot, but I would totally dig it
It already exists though. http://www.macthemes.net/forum/viewtopic.php?id=16804800
True dat! Either someone's stealing these, or someones stealing these? Another option would be that he is just adding on for Android purposes. I am downloding the pack now to see if indeed he has stolen credit
EDIT: They aren't stolen, those are not in the icon pack provided on the website you gave. I like these icons, keep up the good work
BTW, the creator included a template in the rar for more to be made...
Yeah there should be given credit to the guys over at MacThemes for the template and work they've done.
Would still be nice with some androidesque versions of this style of icons.
Suave HD already exists but its pretty iphone specific when it comes to apps. I will obviously give credit to them if I decide to release an android specific icon pack.
Bump it up please. I've been looking for a new icon pack, and this looks awesome
love it. would like to have some folder icon like these.
Love it!
Love what you are doing there! Fabulous icons -- would love to see more! Good luck and keep me in the loop!
Sincerely,
SisterX
I have been working on a themed tweetdeck for the last couple of days. My goal here was just to have it fit in with the INCredible rEVOlution theme.
I have only done Facebook and Twitter, as I don't really use foursquare or buzz... and the only thing I have not been able to locate that I would like to change is the yellow and grey text in the title bar and the scrollbar...
Please note this is not near complete. I have only edited the things I use, these include:
Twitter Columns, Facebook Columns, buttons, and the bar widget
If anyone wants to helpout, or wants this, let me know and I would be happy to post it!
EDIT: Here is the link to download...
Tweetdeck INCredible
You cannot install this over an already installed tweetdeck.
Uninstall and then reinstall to get it to work.
Here are a couple of screens...

Post, it looks nice.
Thanks!
@touchpro, I posted the link in the original post. Glad you like how it looks!
Looks good man....thanks for the contribution!
@SoCal thanks so much! I am starting to learn android development and figured decoding some apps and theming them would help me learn the structure and the way the XML layout files work. So truly just a super newbie at this stuff with android, but am a web designer and developer by trade.

Good thing is, you will find it in the xml.files.
As I changed those colors couple of days ago....
I changed almost all text colors, but only because I am still searching for the main text color and user color in main columns.
I gave up for now...I bet it´s in some smali.files ....
