newbie working on a new theme for the gigabeat f

(1/4) > >>

Hello, I'm new here.  I just installed Rockbox on my Gigabeat F40 about a week ago and I must say that this is one of the best things I've come across in a long time and I would like to say thank you to all the people involved in making such an awesome thing.  I have decided to give back by designing a new theme.  I have no prior coding knowledge but it seems pretty easy to pick up after reading the manual and looking at some of the other themes I've installed for reference points.  I already have most of the wps file done but I had a little question.

I'm attempting to do a new theme for the Gigabeat F and I was wondering about the date & time tags.  I looked in the manual and I didn't see those listed, does anyone have a complete list of tags for the WPS?  Also does anyone have any pointers about making themes that isn't listed in the manual such as album art and placement of custom bmp's (like how many pixels = 1 line?  I tried to make sure I searched around 1st before asking questions, so be easy on me!  ;D  Thanks!

Thank you, I was going off the PDF and it wasn't in there.  I almost have it done.  I have it running on my Gigabeat now, I just need to get an ok from the artist who made the background (which shouldn't be a problem) and make some minor cosmetic changes.  It's pretty simple but very clean & nice looking.

Maybe this should be added to the PDFs.

Here's the screen shots I have so far.  I'm still going to change a couple things before I release it.  No set date yet.  Let me know what you guys think and if and what you'd like to see implemented.  I don'treally know how to add album art functionality, maybe someone could help me out with that?
