It is a very nice, useable theme that accentuates the Rockbox color theme and stands out from what the majority of original firmwares are doing.

I have to agree.  It works very nice on both my Sansa and my Gigabeat.  I think with some minor changes it would be fine on landscape targets as well.  Its simple, but nice looking, doesn't require any extra patches, and matches the rockbox logo quite nicely.

Anyone else looked at it?

elborak:
I think it's a well designed theme, accomplishing what it aims to accomplish.

But I also think it's a rather ugly color scheme.

Hello,
I am the author of the 'Cabbie' theme, and I heard about this contest a few weeks ago. This is the first chance I've had to look this up. I had no idea that the theme was popular enough to even be considered for use as the default theme for RockBox.

I am willing to port it to all targets, if I get a little help. People have already ported it to several targets, and these could be used with the permission of the maintainers. Also, the license can be changed to something more permissive.

Requests for changes would also be welcome.

All this is assuming that there will be some sort of a demand for a default theme for RockBox.

Thanks.

Yohann

GodEater:
There's very definitely a demand for it. I don't think anyone is in any doubt that the current default one sucks.

rmahoney:
One problem I had with the default theme is that the font is so tiny.  I created a large font theme (called BigFont) and it is currently available for the Sansa.  I think it would be a good idea to include a large font theme as an addition to the chosen new default theme.
