Rockdroid - 720x1280 touch screen theme
ZincAlloy:
The album art code is still in the .wps file, but commented out.
You can put it back in by simply deleting the hash characters, but you shouldn't. Album art display works, but this theme needs covers so large that music playback is going to be compromised due to insufficient memory size (it will stop after a couple of seconds).
As soon as this patch is commited and album art display and music playback are working at the same time I'll update the theme. ;)

Thanks!
I enabled albumart and it's working fine on my Galaxy Nexus. Not slowing down at all.

Interesting. On my Galaxy S3 playback stops after a couple of seconds when I have album art enabled.

I was using a galaxy nexus and playback was fine although some albumart did not load.
I am not using a phone with a 768x1280 display. Can I just edit the theme files for the 720 theme to work with the 768 resolution?

Sure.
The lazy route, the absolute minimum you could get away with, is kludging 48px of empty space onto the bottom of the sbs and wps backdrops because the backdrop images must match the device's framebuffer exactly. That would 'Just Work' with zero additional changes but would leave a large-ish area of empty space on the bottom of the theme.
The slightly more technical route if you wanted to even that empty space out slightly, and what I would probably do with this, is to add 24px to the bottom of each backdrop image and 24px to the top of each backdrop image (but underneath the status bar strip), and then to drop the y axis down 24px for all the affected viewports and touch areas. Effectively distributing the 48px of additional empty space across two areas half the size.
However, honestly I don't think that taking the 'lazy route' described above would look that bad at all or even be particularly noticeable.
Looking at the theme source just now, either are very simple tasks.

EDIT: looking at it again, the album art could probably be adjusted to absorb the additional 24px of 'extra' space, it could even be adjusted to absorb the entire 48px of extra space, but that does two things. It worsens the memory requirements, and makes adjusting the theme to suit a bit more complex than simply pushing everything down 24px.
