D4rKworKs - M4riNa D4rK Theme/Icons
 

M4riNa D4rK Theme 1.0-9 and Iconset 1.0-6 are available in extras-devel as of now.

A load of new icons and fixes, please post any issues on this thread!

Changelogs:

http://maemo.org/packages/view/m4rina-d4rk-icons/

http://maemo.org/packages/view/m4rina-d4rk-theme/

Also note that for everything to work visually it's best to use the theme customizer and set the font to Tahoma. The hex of the blue I use is 1952FF.

Many many thanks to wazd for the original Marina Theme, D-iivil for his constant help at every stage (pretty much since I joined the community!) Mankir for the calendars and all the originators of the original pre-modded icons, including Biggzy for his systeminfowidget and the original bookmark applet from which I based mine. Icons not made by myself are generally from the usual sources like DeviantART, iconsite myway and iconarchive.

Any requests for other icons please just ask!

Dany-69's Pixmaps and Widget Script

Thanks to Dany-69 we now have a way of installing ALL widget and pixmap images via the 'Extra D4rK' Icon which will appear in your main menu on reboot after the 1.0-6 Icon Theme update.

Thank you so, so much Dany, sorry for the hassle and thanks for not pushing through the injunction :D

Grazie fratello!!!!

I've tested it as much as possible, however over to you guys, as ever any issues please let me know and they'll be resolved asap.

Screenshots

Alternative wallpapers are here:

And here:


Desktop Clock Widget and Calendar Home Widget are mandatory for 'the look', the clock theme files are in the 'Random Bits' folder attached.

Custom Hildon-Desktop

One of the easiest ways of making your N900 seem like a new device is to use a custom hildon-desktop. I've attached my preferred hildon-desktop, courtesy of a collaboration between MohammadAG, Matan and thp which includes: Faster kinetic scrolling throughout the OS, a custom transition.ini from MohammadAG, modified task switcher, the ability to have up to 9 desktops and a host of other patches and fixes.

To install copy to your N900 (or MyDocs, or /home/user/MyDocs, they're all the same thing- the first folder you see when you connect your N900 to your PC in mass storage mode). Then enter the following (bold bit only!) in x-term:

To make it even easier once you've typed as far as:

dpkg -i hildon-desk press the 'tab' button on the screen in terminal and the name will autocomplete.

Additional Thanks

Also a HUUUUGE Thank you to everyone in this incredible community simply for doing what you do, not limited to but including Nicolai, Matan, Titan, MohammadAG, Jacekowski, No!No!No!Yes!, Biggzy, Leetut, Qosmio, Dany-69, Hopbeat, juhar, and everyone from the Screenshot and Mods threads.

Kind Regards,

As a small P.S. I'll be away from now till the 29th November with limited interwebs, however I'll try my very best to answer any queries/requests as soon as I can! :D

<tips cap> Nice one fella, will get it on right now.... :D

Re: [ANNOUNCE] -D4rKworKs- M4rina D4rK Theme/Icons
 

hi
i like your theme. However i have some critics.
- the blue font (e-mail widget) could be brighter.
- the ninja as standard contact is not soo good.
- most of the time i can't see the desktop button (upper left corner)

otherwise really nice

Re: [ANNOUNCE] -D4rKworKs- M4rina D4rK Theme/Icons
 

There is no desktop button, all on purpose so that is staying but I'll look into the email widget for you and release an alternative for the default avatar :D

What would you like?

Kind Regards,
D4rKlar

Re: [ANNOUNCE] -D4rKworKs- M4rina D4rK Theme/Icons
 

funny i was gonna ask for this after admiring your screenshots for a while!
cheers for putting this together,
installing.....

Re: [ANNOUNCE] -D4rKworKs- M4rina D4rK Theme/Icons
 

Nice Job! As always. Many Thanks
Installing too ....

Re: [ANNOUNCE] -D4rKworKs- M4rina D4rK Theme/Icons
 

Waauw, a Theme with 4s instead of 2s in the Name alone, that's gotta be badass :P hehe just messing with ya, great looking skin!

Re: [ANNOUNCE] -D4rKworKs- M4rina D4rK Theme/Icons
 

Doesn't really matter. I use the phone at work and need a respectable and professional appearance. Maybe just a recolored version of the standard avatar? But I leave it to you.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] -D4rKworKs- M4rina D4rK Theme/Icons

Re: [ANNOUNCE] -D4rKworKs- m4riNa D4rK Theme/Icons
 

Hi guys,

for that ask a menu buttons, i've created this two images, the result is this:

And then when the menu button is pressed:

For install you must dowload the images and copy in /usr/share/themes/name_of_the_theme/images whit filefox or via x-term

Re: [ANNOUNCE] -D4rKworKs- m4riNa D4rK Theme/Icons

Re: [ANNOUNCE] -D4rKworKs- m4riNa D4rK Theme/Icons
 

Hello mate, not sure that style would suit the theme, but you can always mod any part you're not happy with yourself! I'd be happy to help :D

Veleno thank you mate, I'm sure people will appreciate that! :D

Kind Regards,
D4rKlar

Re: [ANNOUNCE] -D4rKworKs- m4riNa D4rK Theme/Icons

Re: [ANNOUNCE] -D4rKworKs- m4riNa D4rK Theme/Icons
 

hi d4rk, loving the theme...

was wondering if you will be doing HAM/catorise category icons, just to complete the package...

rgrds

Re: [ANNOUNCE] -D4rKworKs- m4riNa D4rK Theme/Icons
 

This theme is amaaaaaaayzing altho it does look like Im missing some bits :s but It could be that after 6 months of owning this phone I still dont know anything about it or how to use it for anything as a phone or a mobile fap machine, I cant even manage to install a bloody different font for gods sake. Is there any chance you could add some icons for Xchat, BattleGeweled, Mediabox, TVCatchup and Grooveshark?

Re: [ANNOUNCE] -D4rKworKs- m4riNa D4rK Theme/Icons
 

awesome another super-glossy colorswap just like the last twenty 'new' themes

Re: [ANNOUNCE] -D4rKworKs- m4riNa D4rK Theme/Icons
 

Any update on this?

Re: [ANNOUNCE] -D4rKworKs- m4riNa D4rK Theme/Icons
 

Hey guys, just got back so I'll try and have an update out by the end of the week.

There are a few bits that need tweaking like the black bar on the lockscreen (lol which isn't long enough for Wednesdays), new call buttons, more icons to do and a few little extras :D

@stenny I appreciate the criticism, but wouldn't it be more useful if you'd elaborate a bit as to what you'd actually like from a theme so someone could help? You might even end up with a theme you like ;)

Also, the icon pack can be used on it's own without the theme.

@trashcanman Under 'settings' you can access D-iivils theme customizer (installed automatically with the theme) which takes all the hard work out of modding! Change fonts, font colours, app backgrounds and more besides. Have a look at this thread here.

Kind Regards,
D4rKlar

Re: [ANNOUNCE] -D4rKworKs- M4rina D4rK Theme/Icons
 

Awsome icons man thank you! But how can you ever have limited interweb access when you own a N900?

Re: [ANNOUNCE] -D4rKworKs- m4riNa D4rK Theme/Icons
 

At last... Hope my requests will be added :p waiting mode.
