Re: New approach to theming. I need a programmers help.
 

That would be cool if you don't mind setting me up with an account on it. Right now I'm going to hand upload a packages and setup our db and add entrys to db by hand. That way we can test it on the app then I need a webscript that takes a file, type, name, and description uploads file to correct folder for type. Then add entry to database.

Guess I need to register a domain name also.

This is really a great idea andrewfblack! :)

Re: New approach to theming. I need a programmers help.
 

Sounds very exciting. Looking forward to this project.

I'm not sure the the one programmer who was offering to help is still going to or not havn't seen in a few days but I am going to offer a bounty to help me get atleast a basic program working. Something that maybe I can use to help me learn and build on it from their.

Pay will depend on how much work you are willing to do. Please PM or see me on IRC if you want to talk about it.

Just an idea:

what you want to do is easier to achieve with a project which would be the opposite of theme maker: a software to build the complete png template image from an existing theme. I guess that this should be doable with a photoshop macro...

I think you didn't get the idea of this project :)

Re: New approach to theming. I need a programmers help.
 

Possibly. I thought that the idea was to customize an existing theme. What I suggest allows that in a simple manner. It does not allow to customize a theme in the device itself, that is true.

The idea was to have a "bank" on the internet with peaces of themes where user can choose which parts they want to use and then download it to the phone. Theme creators or modders could then just release for example a cool lock screen and users could download it to their phone with the software inside the phone.
