ONGOING DEFAULT THEME CONTEST!!!
wpyh:
Hey, the blue gradient actually looks nice :) I was referring to the dark background and the bar still having too much of a gradient, but it looks nicer with the blue background. It's more "refreshing" that way.
A few suggestions for the new background:
1. With the blue background, the Rockbox logo stands out too much -- would be better if it's made more subtler.
2. Make the icons visible in the menu, since it's the default behaviour IIRC. This way we could see it more clearly.
3. Make the gradient bar have less of a gradient. I've attached an edited test_menu.png that more or less describes it. (it's hand-edited so the gradient is coarse)
AlexP:
I very much like the blue background, but I find the logo behind it distracting and that it makes it harder to read the actual text. Perhaps it would be better if it were more subtle?
karashata:
I can make it more subtle, though you'll have to wait until the next batch of screen shots.
I'll also reduce the gradient bars a little so the gradient's a little more subtle.
There have been several votes to leave out the icons, but the theme is configured that it doesn't show or hide them (they'll be shown or hidden according to one's settings), and it sets the tango icon set (on the chance one uses a theme with a different set.)
These are the screen shots for the c200 port. I'm unhappy with how the status icons turned out (note I also changed the layout of the top bar and put the volume as a text pop-up where the total time normally shows, I don't like that much either...) I think I may try putting them at the bottom similar to the H10 20GB port, between the time elapsed and time remaining. Would this be acceptable, or should I put the icons on one side and the time elapsed/time remaining (or time elapsed/total time) on the other..? (Note that this means I'm not going to be including the next track info like I said earlier, sorry to those who really want it.)
EDIT: I have updated screen shots for the H10 20GB with some of the suggested changes, I altered the gradient slightly (slightly more subtle gradient as well as a little closer to the logo's yellow-orange colour) and made the faded logo more subtle. I also altered the status icons slightly, and made the title text blueish to stand out a bit from the rest of the text. If someone can bump the thread so I can make a new post to post those updated images that would be appreciated.
EDIT the 2nd: Updated images have replaced the old c200 screen shots, sorry to anyone who didn't see them but I think these are much better. Please tell me what you think, anything that needs changing and any other complaints/suggestions you might have.
I think I'm nearly ready to make the rest of the ports, so unless there are any changes that need to be made, this should be close to what the final ports will look like.
EDIT the 3rd: Seems my request for a bump has been granted. I'll be posting the screen shots in a new post after all.
AlexP:
Consider it bumped :)
karashata:
If I had waited just 5 minutes longer... Anyway...
Here are the updated screen shots for both the H10 and c200 themes, I hope these impress and I'm nearly finished making changes.
