(note: where the time is displayed,in the apple menu also the volume bar is displayed. i dont need that.
i would be happy with the normal volume bar like in the cabbie theme)

eifel, please use complete words rather than slang on these forums.  You can find the forum guidelines HERE.

Tell me if you want to have anything changed.
If you want to use AlbumArt, re-size pictures to 80x80 pixel.
PS I could not manage to import the original (Myriad) font into rockbox. If you don't like the font i chose, you'll have to convert it yourself, but it's a pretty complicated procedure and i think it looks just as good with the font i used.
I just realized, my theme lacked that ipod style gradient. So i added that.

ein simples danke wäre schön, wenn es bei dir jetzt funktioniert.

hallo,
leider bin ich noch in der schule ohne ipod,habe bis 6 unterricht.
werde es heute abend aber auf jeden fall testen.
Vlt kann man bei nem normalen menü nach blau als Hintergrundfarbe für den ausgewählten punkt holen,aber dass lässt sich ja hoffentlich im rockbox menü ändern.(ich meine,ich hätte da so ein  menüpunkt gesehen.
Aber vielen dank dir,dass du dir die Mühe gemacht hast.
Danke!

i tested the skin and noticed a few "glitches"
The font is to big for my Ipod Colour. The menu entrys arent display full when they are long.
Also:
In the main menu the menu entrys begin under the rockbox logo.
but if i choose any category like playing,the entrys begin in the first line,not in the 2. line.That looks some strange,but i can live with it if it isnt changeable.
Also i miss the volume bar in the top at the "now playing" window.

But at all:

Great work so far man!

If these few things would be fixed it would be perfect an BdN3504  would be my hero

No worries.  We just ask that you avoid purposely using 'net slang' terms as these tend to confuse translation software and screen readers.

Why not post it in the gallery?  Is there some Apple copyright being infringed upon?

If you used images from the OF, it's a copyright violation. Which means it shouldn't be here or in the wiki.

And are those themes all licensed in such a way as you have permission to re-use images from them?

If there is no clear licence, and you cannot contact the copyright holder to ask, then you cannot use it.
