New iPod 5G wps called iRocker, based on iRock by Gaston

Hello everyone,

I really liked the basis for Gaston's iRock v2 wps and theme(http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/WpsIpod5g#iRock_v2), but there were a few things I would have liked different. I didn't know anything about making wps's, so I set out to learn, and in a couple hours, tweaked Gaston's theme to my liking. The formatting of information is closer to that of the iPod's original firmware, having the track info listed Track Title, Artist, and Album from top to bottom. There are a few other changes too, like 12 hour time format, volume bar from the escape pod wps, and the next song icon from the jBlackGlass theme by PiesJulius. As well as minor text formatting adjustments.

I can't figure out how to upload it to the wps gallery, but here's a screenshot:




I would really like to upload it to the gallery, so any help with that would be appreciated. It displays album art the same was as Gaston's original theme, and covers the slightly visible iTunes icon. It also requires the same patches as his original theme.

Let me know what you think! I call it iRocker.

edit: after finding Gaston's original thread about his theme, I think there's some stuff in this one that many people wanted. Also I might as well tell you everything I changed: I moved the shuffle icon and did a little rework; I changed the calendar icon; battery icon now evenly filled, with no "blank" battery; "N on N" changed to "N of N" and moved to center above the progress bar; removed total time, moved remaining time to left aligned above progress bar, more consistent with the iPod's original firmware; updated "hold" icon to be a little better looking; no more "playlist" icon; updated ID3 tag display not to show "N/N." before track name, and no longer displays the year after the album name; removed "Rockbox" from top bar; replaced "Rockbox" on main background with Apple logo.

Wow, I had no idea there was so much. Anyway, if you want it, help me upload it!

Harry:

fatherfork:
