not necessarily.
DancemasterGlenn:
I actually love the "now playing" title bar, I always thought it looked very classy.
DancemasterGlenn:
Since the theme has worked its way in and now been made the default (woo!) I thought I'd re-bring up a post I made a while ago... When updating the database on my player at startup, I see the rockbox splash displayed on a white background... but for a split second after updating is done, I see the rockbox splash on the cabbie gradient background... and it looks really good. The same goes for when I plug in the player to usb and the usb picture flashes over the gradient for a moment before restarting in charge mode. What I was wondering is, is there any interest in changing the splash image/usb mode pictures to use the gradient as a background? the easiest way to do it would be to simply alter those two pictures to take up the whole screen by adding the gradient to the image itself, but I know the larger image size may slow rockbox (maybe), so I was also curious if it's just possible to load the backdrop gradient in one's theme at boot, when the player starts up (which I don't think is possible, but would be pretty nifty, since then anyone's theme would integrate nicely with the boot image/usb picture). How possible is this, and does it actually interest anyone besides me?
Attached is a picture I gimp'd together for the boot image. I was going to make this a flyspray feature request, but it seemed like this might be more appropriate... I can make it a flyspray as well if people are actually interested/people think that would make more sense.
(also, sorry to double post, but this doesn't really feel like a double post)
ZincAlloy:
this was my idea for the splash screen:
DancemasterGlenn:
That fits the reflective WPS style in the cabbie3 theme moreso than the cabbie2 theme, in my opinion.
EDIT: Essentially my point (and personal opinion) is that the simple change in backdrop of the two images in question unifies the theme all the more, and looks great without actually changing anything about the logo or the usb picture. That's all.
