3 new ipod nano themes
« on: January 01, 2007, 08:38:20 PM »
ok i got 3 new ipod nano themes
1st is a simple one i tested based off the  Suzumiya theme
2nd is a solarsystem theme based off jack's candy cane theme
3rd is my zelda theme that took me forever to make its based off my knowledge on themes.
i cant upload them t the wiki. i have to leave, but could some one do it for me.
here are the files.
http://www.sharebigfile.com/file/49080/themes.7z.html

Comments:
placing all three themes into one folder is not really good practice, as it makes it difficult for inexperienced users to add just the theme they want, and wastes download bandwidth.  A suggested format is here...
http://www.rockbox-themes.org/temp/hatchinatore.zip

The Earth theme is using black text on black background and is unreadable


The Green theme uses a non-standard font (Espy+asian-12.fnt) this should really be supplied with the theme...


The Zelda theme, does not specify a forground colour... and the font does not look right

I assume this means that it does not work with a standard Rockbox build...?  It would be good to specify that, and which build you have designed it for (along with a link to get said build)

BTW, what's with the 140K of MacOS folder inside the zip? They don't seem to serve any purpose other than to increase the size of the download

And finally, could I suggest keeping each theme in a separate zips, and upload then separately to either the Wiki and/or Rockbox-themes.org,  rather then these rather irritating free download sites that a lot of people of quite nervous about accessing.

ok the build is
http://forums.rockbox.org/index.php?topic=5695.0< jonbuild v1.2
the whole macosx_ folder is because i am on a mac computer, and when you create an archive, mac creates a folder that serves no purpose. it is just there. i ont have a windows pc, i went to my friends house one time, and formatted my ipod to fat32, and installed loader 2, so i am constantly on a mac.
sorry about all the hastle with download sites. i registered to the wiki the other day, and never got the email with the confirmation code. ill check again for it so this stuff doesnt happen again.

other than all the font related things i messed up, are there any other graphics i should add, or more song info. i want to maake these themes as best as i can. these are my first themes, so there will be glitches, plus i made them all at once, so i kinda got confused on some things.
i am open to all suggestions.

That's a rather old build you are using...

Have you considered using something like senabs build -

You need to ask in the irc channel for write permissions. I've checked, this is also stated on the wiki registration page.
