New Theme for the Gigabeat: Derivative

(1/3) > >>

Monkeytamer:
Hey all, I had created this theme a long while ago, but refrained from uploading and releasing it due to previous limitations in the display of the WPS. With the advent of Viewports, and in my opinion, very manageable and straightforward syntax, I would like to get some final feedback on my theme before adding it to the Wiki.

I updated it just last night, so the WPS code is a bit hackish, but it definitely displays the manner in which I intended. This is evident by the somewhat excessive amount of whitespace, but if anyone knows a better way to circumvent transparent lines that run across the album art (this is due to conditional lines that update along the album art's location IIRC), I would greatly appreciate your assistance.

Note that this is an adaptation from Deft's BeatMP theme, and hence is why I named it Derivative.

 

Features:
- Large album art (220x220)
- Application of Viewports for precise margins when scrolling track information
- Easy-to-read font (nimbus-12)

I'm open to any suggestions for modifying it's appearance, as I haven't made any aesthetic changes since I had first created it almost a year ago. Thank you for looking!

Chronon:
It looks nice and clean.  Maybe when I get another Gigabeat. . .

Monkeytamer:
I've added the theme to the Wiki, in spite of my ineptitude in editing at this time in the morning. Thank you for the kind words Chronon :)

hhannah:
Nice!
What do you mean by this?:

Febs:
This is a very nice theme, and I hate to be too much of a stickler, but I don't see any license posted for Deft's BeatMP theme, so in order to post your theme on the wiki, you will need to get Deft's permission.
