ONGOING DEFAULT THEME CONTEST!!!
crzyboyster:
I see that we need to do a lot of renaming...
Llorean: What else do we need to do for this to become the default theme? What would be the next steps and does this actually have the potential to become the default for many players?

I (or someone else) will commit the theme itself as soon as its ready to go into SVN (renamed, etc). Then we can look into getting that patch setup to work with this theme as the default. Once we're sure it works, I don't think anyone will object to committing it.

How exactly does the renaming thing work? Does every part of the theme need to have a suffix with the screen dimensions? I couldn't find out much from the source link (http://svn.rockbox.org/viewvc.cgi/trunk/wps/iCatcher/).
Still, this theme will make it into every copy of rockbox even if it's not the default one, correct?

As far as I know - all the different bitmaps (i.e. icons in different sizes/colours) need unique names so that they can still be referenced correctly when they are stored in one "cabbie2" folder. Of course the already mentioned renamed .wps files will have to use these new bitmap file names. The .cfg files will be made automatically from what someone defines in the WPSLIST file (during the build process). I'm not sure if this one is already prepared for a gradient or coloured line selector, maybe it needs some work beforehand.

I'm going to do this for the ipod video version just to see how it goes. When it's uploaded, can someone check if it's done properly?
EDIT: I added a table row thing for renaming on the wiki and *attempted* to rename the ipod video default version (not unifont yet). Can someone who knows how all this works tell me if it's ok and also can someone bug check it on a sim or the real device? I just added a "-screenize" after each file unique to the ipod video (all wps image files, wps folder, wps file, backdrop) but I didn't do it for the theme file (was I supposed to?).
Also, if the gigabeat version uses the same size icons (not sure right now), would it be allright to link up to the 320 screen size files and copy over the video wps images into the gigabeat version?
