New Theme for 220x176x16: Winterdark

(1/3) > >>

wintermute23:
This is my first from-scratch WPS. I was previously using a modified jClix (and it probably shows), but I figured I could probably do better.


The status bar shows time and date or battery details, depending on the position of the hold switch. The general idea is to show as much information as might possibly be useful, and still have it re usable.

So, what do you think? Any changes that you'd recommend? Anyone here think they might use it?

soap:
It has more information on display than I find I want (I don't care about bitrate, codec, etc.) but it looks fine and all I beg of you is to release it under a free and open license.
 ;D

yapper:
One good thing about having too much information is that others who use the theme can easily remove the information they don't want, and replace it with what they find important.

Personally, I would remove the 'percentage played' from the progress bar, and replace it with the playlist position, but WPS do tend to be based on personal preference ...  :)

Edit: Oops - missed the playlist info in bottom right of screen.

wintermute23:
Yapper: Playlist position is in the bottom right corner. Personally, I like having plenty of room for the track times, because I listen to a lot of hour plus podcasts, which can overflow the tiny windows they're often given.

Terrence: Yes, proper repeat and shuffle icons are needed. In fact, all the icons could do with a once-over. I'm no graphic artist, and these were about the best I could do. Maybe once it's released, someone will improve it for me ;)

Chronon:
They can only make improvements if you release this under an open license of some kind.
