New (iPod 5G) theme: Pen&Paper

I made this theme because the summer holiday is about to end and I'm going back to school - that's why it look like something scribbled in a notebook.

Any suggestions are welcome.

A couple of little doodles on the menu would give it that authentic "student who's bored in class" look!  

Can you tell us a little more about how everything in the WPS screen works? (Icons, battery meter, etc.)

hah! awesome!
I love it. ditto what Lambda said tho.

I think a font that looks more like handwriting would be a great touch too!  Cool idea -- I like it!

Looks very good! Can you port it to Gigabeat?

you know.. you can change the font yourself if you dont like.

Lambada: I thought of adding something like that to the menu, but I'm no good when it comes to drawing. Maybe you could help? Just grab a pen and a white paper, make some doodles, scan it/take a photo and send it to me!

The battery meter, volume meter and play mode works just like on any wps - the spots on the battery disappear as the power drains (I haven't made a charging indicator), "sound waves" are added/removed from the volume meter as it changes. The repeat mode changes to "One" or "Shuff." instead of "All" when you choose those modes, it disappears if you turn it off - the same thing goes for the shuffle indicator.There is a hold icon too, but the iconset is not included.

Chronon: If you know a better font, just let me know what it is.
Soader: I'll probably post the photoshop source when it's finished and maybe someone will port it then.

Good, I could do it.

jswetzen: Some stick figures would be cool enough!

[cocobomb]

Draw a bad dragon or uhh a cool car or something like a stick figure

[jswetzen]

I drew one thing for the menu (it's a beginning at least) and a stick figure for the wps that waves at you whenever you pause

A silly idea: For any ports of this theme, replace the doodle of the iPod with whatever device it's ported to.

[cocobomb]

could you port this to ipod nano?

cocobomb:I've uploaded the source, you can get it at http://files.filefront.com/PenPaper+psd+sourcezip/;8365705;;/fileinfo.html and you will need photoshop CS2.

Agree with you, and thanks for the source, I'll try to make it for Gigabeat.
