ONGOING DEFAULT THEME CONTEST!!!
dannyboi:
Is there a theme for the 5.5G Ipod that has font that is large as the original firmware, but manages to fit everything altogether on the screen?
I tried font 18 for the default Cabbie theme, but that meant some album names and next songs were missing from the WPS screen.
karashata:
I realize that this "contest" has pretty much been over since CabbieV2 was committed and made the new default, however, I'd like to submit a theme I've been working on recently, if not for a new default, at least for possible inclusion.
I've only got it made for one target screen size currently (160x128x16, the iriver H10 20GB and iAudio X5 screens) but I plan to make this theme for the other targets if people think it's worth possibly commiting to SVN.
Also, I don't currently have a name for this theme (any suggestions..?), and I'm looking for a little criticism/suggestions for improvement, particularly for the status icons for the shuffle, repeat, and crossfade modes. Any and all ideas would be appreciated.
LambdaCalculus:
Wow, very nice and pleasant to look at. Maybe for a future major release, we can use a default theme like this one.
I think we should still have the Tango icons display on the menu, to keep consistency with Cabbiev2. This will also make it appear a little more pleasing to users.
Maybe you can call this "Cabbie Modern"?
karashata:
I never much liked showing the icons so I always keep them disabled. I suppose I can tweak the theme to use the Tango icons (right now it just defaults them to the original, it doesn't disable showing them).
I'm not entirely sure I'd want to associate it with the previous versions of the Cabbie themes (it wasn't intended to resemble them too much, the colour scheme is based off the logo's main colour and the layout is one I've found works rather nicely for me...), however I'll keep it in mind unless better suggestions come along.
Any suggestions on how to improve the status icons along the bottom..? (I'm not too happy with them, really, since I'm not sure I could make them fit too well on smaller screened targets...)
EDIT: Just to update the menu image to show the icons...
MarcGuay:
I think it looks better without the icons - the colours take away from it's simplicity. For names, the lurking logo summons words like Stealth, Smog, Cloud, etc.
As for the WPS images/icons, I think part of the problem is that you have a light colour on a colour. Maybe darken up the foreground yellow? But then again, it kind of suits the smoky aura. (Check my art-class lingo).
