Submitting a new theme...
«
on:
July 20, 2006, 04:46:02 PM »
2 questions:
1. How do I take a screencap of a theme?
2. Is it right for me to submit this theme? It's a modifycation of several other themes, with other stuff added on. It's basically to make the perfect theme.
Where would I go to submit a theme?

1) Using the screendump feature of Rockbox. It should be in the manual, if not let me know so we can get it added.
2) How do you mean "submit?" Do you want to just add it to the wiki like other themes, in which case you just go and do that, or submit it for inclusion in Rockbox, in which case you have to read the guidelines at the CustomWPS page.
Remember that all art created by other people is copyright them, so for you to submit it for inclusion or redistribute it, you need permission.

Then if I make a new backdrop, would it be perfect?

What is the normal resolution of the ipod, so I can get to work on a new backdrop...?

I can enable screendump, but don't see anywhere in the manual about taking a pic...

It should say that with screendump enabled you simply insert at USB cable to take screendumps, and then turn it off when you want to use USB like normal again.

I figured it out.
This theme is a variation of the red and black album art theme, but everything has been changed.
Here ya go:

Why the silence?
I know it's not the most 'original' of themes, but I haven't had a chance to make a new theme yet...
I found that if made nicely, the red and black theme could look... extremelly nice...
Or is your silence due to Adema?

Yes, we can see them. Have you uploaded them to the wiki yet, so others can download and use them?

Don't you find that the busy backdrop makes it hard to read the text?

This is true.
I always have busy backdrops. If I could have it, I would have translucent windows on a completely see thru monitor ie monority report if I could. it's the way I am
