Title: Made some themes, might upload them.
Post by: Frankenpod on August 12, 2015, 08:11:42 AM
I liked the Redux theme but I wanted the time of day on the WPS, so I modified it to add that, then modified it some more for the sake of it.

Is it worth uploading this?  I am not sure whether its bad to spam the themes section with lots of variations on existing themes?

I think its now significantly different from the original.  Calling it 'ReduxRedux'.  Comes in orange and blue versions. [Obviously, credit to original author of redux, especially the faux spectrum analyser!]

Have also made a few versions of the cabbie theme in different colour schmes, and have ported a couple of other people's ipod colour/photo themes to the classic/video.  But having done so I notice a couple of those existing photo/colour themes don't seem to mention the correct licence agreement in the files, does that mean I can't upload a converted version of them?

My cabbie variant [derived from cabbie2++], and a port of brushedmetal

Maybe will upload when have gotten them into right format for uploads.

(There seem to be quite a few nice themes for the photo/colour that haven't been ported to 320x240.  I might try convert some more)

Having trouble uploading!  Need to load slight fixed version of brushedmetal.

Ended up uploading it again, as 'updating it' just sends you round-and-round in circles, where if you try and upload new version it asks if you want to update it then sends you back to the start again.  If there's any way to delete the first version, please do so!

Have several to upload, but need to test them a lot more first.  Also, would help if I could figure out how to update an uploaded theme, you just get a check box asking if you want to update it but then it takes you back to the start again and you go round in circles.

And I have ported some from the ipod photo section, like the attached one, that don't mention the licence agreement in the files, so does that mean they can't be used?

Wish I could figure out how to update an upload - have some very minor fixes I'd want to make to some but don't want to keep uploading new versions.  Don't know how to delete old versions either.
