Re: Metro Theme - Proof of Concept
 

I hope people can download it now and tell me what they think, i have OBS access now but dont know how to compile a theme if people know, tell me

Also office icon is replaced with a paperclip

Re: Metro Theme - Proof of Concept
 

downloaded it. The icons are nice but since they only cover the basic icon-set all other icons look odd. Kindly look through F2thak's F.D.B. Theme for better understanding on what all is available for editing. Looking forward to your interpretation of the UI.

Re: Metro Theme - Proof of Concept
 

Yeh, its very hard to do, also if i use his implementation i cant use themechanger, unless that app gets updated to work with third party icons.

I don't think i will do the whole ui, i did that with symbian though

Re: Metro Theme - Proof of Concept
 

yes indeed, would be great to have such icons for more apps.
btw, how did you make them? i'm very interested in technical side of question.

Re: Metro Theme - Proof of Concept
 

I got an email from the ThemeChanger dev recently...
Doesn't help much in this situation, but figured I'd still share what he said.

Re: Metro Theme - Proof of Concept
 

@koe, the technical side is pretty easy but time consuming

you grab the folder where the icons are stored and just make new icons in photoshop the same size as the ones you are replacing.

Most are 80px by 80px

Then created a file called index.theme

which basically names the theme and tells the system to grab icons that arent found from the default theme.

ThemeChanger, does most of the work.

Like i said before if i manage to package the theme, i will post it on Apps For MeeGo

But ThemeChanger, doesnt support third party icons so its hard for me to add more icons as that would involve to much work

Re: Metro Theme - Proof of Concept
 

Why doesn't it show up in themeChanger for me?? I've copied the metro folder to usr/share/themes via ssh and nothing?? Only development and blanco..

Re: Metro Theme - Proof of Concept
 

Giving it a go right now :) Glad to see Aussies on here ;) (Hope you are Aussie, don't know any other country with Telstra :p )

Re: Metro Theme - Proof of Concept
 

App works on my N950, few icons that dont work;

Calendar
WiFi hotspot
AP Mobile
Angry Birds
GOF2 NFS Shift
SIMATK

Of course, apps you download yourself dont include metro icons, but they are the ones that are pre-installed.

Nice to see folder icon support too :)
