Still working on the Faenza icon pack. Should be available in a day or so. You will see them in the latest version of the maemo.org theme by Andrew, but they'll also be available as a stand alone pack. (I think I have already said that but anyway...)

Still a few apps to make icons for.

Re: Show off your Maemo 5 screenshots
 

guys is there a tutorial somewhere for putting icon x on contact, icon y on web?

+darklar, is your blue screenshot/theme available for use?

Re: Show off your Maemo 5 screenshots
 

Do you mean changing the icon for contacts and web?

If you mean 'contacts' icon rather than an individual icon, it's in opt/usr/share/icons/hicolor/64x64/hildon and it's called general_contacts.png i believe
Web is same place and called general_web.png

Re: Show off your Maemo 5 screenshots
 

i mean changing icons. in generally.
for menu, for messages, for battery...

Re: Show off your Maemo 5 screenshots
 

Can someone explain to me how to set up an automatic slideshow for the background images?

Re: Show off your Maemo 5 screenshots
 

You can write a script that will change the path of the wallpaper and execute it at some interval using scheduler.

Re: Show off your Maemo 5 screenshots
 

Two more from me. Updated my games page with QBW widgets, lots of thanks to Qosmio for this because the QBW icons i borrowed/stole from him then used photoshop to replace the icons inside (removed the 'G' and 'S' and put the words and icons in myself), and the background is one of his from D4klar's deviantart page - thanks guys! In the centre of the page is my custom app search widget icon, and the 'marshall' menu icon is my icon for multitasking
Anyway, icons themselves are OC to 900MHz and 1GHz, General, Silent, Cellular strength, Wifi strength, rootfs space and uptime.

The internet page has an overhaul thanks to D4klar providing the black applet backgrounds to stack web pages. Relocated the shortcuts to the bottom of the screen for a cleaner looking desktop and to admire the view.

Re: Show off your Maemo 5 screenshots
 

If you mean the backgrounds, they're available here mate:

The theme is based on Marina....

http://maemo.org/downloads/product/M...-theme-marina/

...but is heavily customized. I'm trying desperately to get permission from wazd to release my own version of Marina, obviously the second I can I will,

Kind Regards,

What's the name of that Notes desktop widget? I've not seen that before.

Re: Show off your Maemo 5 screenshots
 

GPE To-do list, I think.

Re: Show off your Maemo 5 screenshots
 

It's the Yellow Note widget, with a Desktop Command Execution widget providing the "Notes" label.

Re: Show off your Maemo 5 screenshots
 

is someone working on making icons etc for the pipboy theme? last i read that the person who made this theme has something else in progress and has no time to make the pipboy theme anymore? it would be great to use "full" pipboy style theme and now more than ever because new vegas is out :) i'm going to try to do somekind of icons myself, but i'm not very experienced with image editing tools. is there someplace in the web that i could find some ready icons? tried to use google, but found images of Iphone theme only..

edit: just noticed okuda icons couple posts up. could they fit for a pipboy theme, and is there a way to get the icons to be used like in themecustomizer?

Re: Show off your Maemo 5 screenshots
 

could you please share those icons?

Re: Show off your Maemo 5 screenshots
 

Why don't you guys package these and release them into the repos!

There are some very nice looking themes/icons!

Re: Show off your Maemo 5 screenshots
 

Just a slight update to my last post, i've done some work on the games/QBW page. Modified the Angry Birds, Airport Touch and Tower blocks icons to have no backgrounds (especially important for Tower Blocks, let's face it, the default one is awful!) and moved the icons around with drnoksnes and picodrive perched on appropriate parts of the background, and an angry bird trying to kamikaze Tux ;) and QBW I just did some amendments to have a whole grey/ice-blue theme and also reworked the icon font from wavy to all being upper-arc writing. QBW icons themselves are 900MHz, 1GHz, general, silent, cellular strength, wifi strength, uptime and root space used.

Re: Show off your Maemo 5 screenshots
 

Those icons are from here.

Since they are all mono icons, it is easy to change their color in photoshop/gimp/whatever to suit your needs (I just use the color overlay option in layer properties in Photoshop). I change the color to suit whatever theme I am currently using. I have even used them with the Pipboy 3000 theme.

New com-desk with new icons =).

Meaning of icons from left to right: email, fmms, sms and addressbook. Icons are run by qbw. (please correct someone if i am using wrong terms)

Re: Show off your Maemo 5 screenshots

My desktop. I just like it clean and concise and thus I've left out things like Conky which doesn't bring anything useful on it. I have a separate desktop for networked stuff, like SSH on/off, a few links, and RSS and Facebook feeds. But those are less used so that's why they're not on the main desktop.

Re: Show off your Maemo 5 screenshots
 

@Qosmio, et al.

Somebody should do an "ICON theme" customizer app?

Qosmio changes ICONs like some folks change their underwear!

Re: Show off your Maemo 5 screenshots
 

Brilliant as ever Q!

Can someone please tell me how to get QBW to do calls etc, i see Qosmio has the 'call' icon etc, how do you do that?

Also, Qosmio, what font is that? It's immense

Re: Show off your Maemo 5 screenshots
 

Great Screenshot , what kind of theme is it ?:p

Re: Show off your Maemo 5 screenshots
 

Not completly done yet, still need some more tweaks.
Got kinda bored of my Ubuntu and Alienware themes, and wanted something more "minimalistic".(Still trying to figure out how to change the PNG on Desktop Command Ex Widget, tell me if you know)

So! new theme in progress, I present : Stairway To Heaven. (lol)

Re: Show off your Maemo 5 screenshots
 

That's really good!
RE: cmd, i'd just move to QBW, much more customisable and it's the same codes so you won't have to learn anything. I was really, really overwhelmed by it at first but the basic stuff like that is easy - just 'add cmd' like you do in command execution widget, then change the actual icon presets to what you want.

Re: Show off your Maemo 5 screenshots
 

Thanks alot :)

I've been struggling with QBW for a while, can't really wrap my head around it. (im slow)
The script part is easy, but when it comes to changing the images/icons i get stuck. always ends up as a rectangular grey bar. :|
I'll read some more on that tomorrow i guess.

Re: Show off your Maemo 5 screenshots
 

Just put the image you want (.png) in the queen_beecon_dir in .images in MyDocs, and then in the QBW settings you put the file name in the 'command title settings' bar. So if you want a battery icon and you call the file battery, just put 'battery.png' in that line.
Then all the other lines remove any existing text. So when you open it you'll have 'hide background' etc and under that are 5 white boxes, clear the text from those.
Under that is command title settings, put the .png name in there (the 'scale' is what you use to determine the icon size on the desktop, play around with it and use the height/width meters at the top to get it all together) command results settings leave blank for this type of stuff.
Under that is 'press and progress animation FX' click 'disabled' in the Frames tab. And update policies underneath is similar to the CMD widget, just say 'yes' on the ones you want it to update with.

Re: Show off your Maemo 5 screenshots
 

I don't know why you colored that "screenshot" word since it clearly was a screenshot. But oh well, here's another one so maybe you'll be satisfied now: http://i54.tinypic.com/2ebr8nt.jpg

It's just the maemo.org theme, I only modified the icons to match the orange-grey coloring. Simple yet elegant.

Re: Show off your Maemo 5 screenshots
 

How do i do this? I mean everything that people show here!?

Re: Show off your Maemo 5 screenshots
 

While am connected with N900 on ~Wifi from my Win 7 system using WinSCP,
Why am i not allowed to edit the .ini files under '/usr..'

It says permission denied?!
Error 3

Re: Show off your Maemo 5 screenshots
 

Because all files under /usr are owned by root, not user. You need to log in as root from WinSCP, or copy files to /home/user and then move the files to correct location as root in terminal.

Re: Show off your Maemo 5 screenshots
 

There is no short answer, but essentially it is by applying themes and modifying images and icons.

The truly epic Maemo 5 Mods thread.
I realise it is a huge thread, but there are some gems of information in there.


It would be a good idea to save that general_images icon somewhere as it is likely to be altered and you might not like the next version and it could get changed in a theme update.

I'm not happy with the background colour of that icon, and I'm tweaking some of my other icons as well.

Re: Show off your Maemo 5 screenshots
 

Alright, Logging in as Root in WinSCP seems simpler than the later.. :D
Can you guide me how am i supposed to login as root in WinSCP? :(

Re: Show off your Maemo 5 screenshots
 

first you must to change the root pasword, use in x terminal

sudo gainroot
passwd user and set a new password for root, diferent that you use to login in winscp (went you type the pasword can not see the letters you write)
retype the password and you get it changed, after that in winscp in the part of loggin write root and in password your new password for root. and that is all.

i did it whit putty, but i think so is same from xterminal, just try it

Re: Show off your Maemo 5 screenshots
 

I wish we have more thanks option for this.. :rolleyes:
Worked Charm... :rolleyes:
Alright if someone else is checking on this.. In a more clear way..

In WinSCP when logging in again,
Host name: IPAddress assigned to N900 on the same subnet as PC
Username: root
Password: ***** the one new password we typed in X Term to change it..:cool:
