abb1 Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 Looking Good Dragon, keep the themes coming! I have to ask, what program do you use to design these themes? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

VBLUE42 Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 I still have the leopard theme that was posted on here a while back. I can PM it to you if you would like. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
diaftia Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 Not sure of you should use the Safari icon or the Maps icon. For most iPhone users that icon us synonymous with accessing the web, not navigation. Cool idea though! Will be cool to see how it turns out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
abb1 Posted January 9, 2010 Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 I am not sure, but the light grey bars you have look great, but keep in mind that the text and channel numbers are white and might be washed out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dragon24 Posted January 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 i tested what i had done so far.... lets just say it was real bad and i will have to go back and start it over again. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
abb1 Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 Lol, i hear ya! I spent nearly half a day making an 'Ice theme', which actually looked pretty good until I found out that the text in behind it wasn't readable ! It would have been awesome if the text would have been black or dark blue, but there is no way of changing that so my plans went in the garbage Oh well, this is how you learn, I guess.......

dragon24 Posted October 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2010 i started this theme over again. here are two pic's of what the iPod & AV menu would look like. i have all the buttons done. they will look like the ones under the iPod dial & will change to blue when pushed. the icons are based off of the iphone app buttons. im looking for some mac styled AM & FM radio icon. if anyone can post a link that would be great. photoshop or PNG files work the best. any mac/apple templates would even work better if you got them could you post a link. thanks if you got them.
