Wing Request; Easy to read theme for Visually impaired? Larger/bolder fonts?

Hello to all,
Just found this site and I'm really impressed! This is definitely what the internet is all about; the free exchange of ideas and spreading the love worldwide =)
I have a request for the GURUS; I am visually impaired and hate using the clumsy & cumbersome magnification tools available for WM6 (even mobile speak/mobile magnifier are booty at $90/each!).
My plan is to install Touch-it (how cool is that!!!!) and the other assorted goodies available for my new wing but was wondering if anyone has designed a theme for low vision/easy viewing?
To be honest I would be happy with larger, bolder fonts and easy to read coloration (black on white background or similar) can anyone recommend a theme or possibly help making one for me?
All help & suggestions are welcome, and links are great because searching through threads with my vision can be frustrating or near impossible at times.
Thanks to all & keep up the good work

Please forgive the jumbo text. Looking to make life easier.
I wanted to post since you've gotten 20+ views and no replys. Annoying when people read what you have to say and offer no insight.
I cruise a lot of the different app sites and forums; I haven't seen anything other than the large start menu mod that ttran implemented on a version of his open touch rom so far. You should post this up in the Herald Mobile 6 forum so that perhaps a cook or two might see this and have some ideas for you.
In the mean time, if I come across anything worthwhile, I'll dig the thread up and let you know.
Peace out

Cool deal,
I'll try over there and I'll check out the TTran mod =)

i dont know what nice cool themes are.. i just keep my top/bottom bars black and change the wallpapers.. whatever i like...
If you want to arrange the shortcuts/plugins on today in a "cool" way, you can look various plugins like ultimate launch, spb pocketplus, rltoday, battery status, Wisbar. Take a look at various skins for those (use search function, here at xda and also google). Mix and match, make your own themes/skins and if you think they are very good, Post them here
for example take a look at these:

these uses combination of plugins.. read through them
hope it helps

s2w - Lucid Theme

This is not a diamond theme but something for those who prefer something different.
The s2w Lucid theme is an expansion from the blackdrop theme and more versatile. The theme created, was tested on the Sprint HTC touch.
A worthy note before installing, you need the following:
Rltoday
Ultimate Launch
HHC
Weatherpanel
Today Agenda(its what I am using in my theme)
http://freewareppc.com/utilities/todayagenda.shtml
DciNoBar (for hiding bottom bar)
PsShutXP (included)
Included within the theme are simple instructions made easy to install.
Hope you enjoy and any feed back would be appreciated, thanks.
Blue aura is included
*To those who link this theme on other sites, please be considerate and post the link of this thread from the original source here at ppcgeeks s2w Lucid GT. So that your members can have an insight to any helpful updates to the s2w Luicd theme. Respect is truly appreciated... I feel elated in being part of the creative process and contributing to this site. Thank you and enjoy.*
Currently made for portrait mode.

Having trouble uploading the file... will try again soon.

cool , beautifull man ;D

is there cab files for all the apps that needs to be install for easy installation....

oh mannnnn why ultimate launch..... lol would have preferred it all free... but looks good though

wow, very nice look.

Finally had the chance to update... Hope you enjoy the theme and any feed back would be truly appreciated.

I've always enjoyed ur HTC blackdrop Theme, will give this a try too!!

ShoddyStuff - Overview

Touch The Music Thread - Video (Coming very soon..)
Me and my friend Arlanthir are working on a guitar hero/tap tap-like game for wm. Check it out!
G-Shotgun Thread - Video (The iPhone version)
Work in progress..
iPhone-like icons [Currently not working on it] Thread - (Will eventually make a slideshow of the icons when I've made a complete pack..)
Rofl, here's my more or less mediocre icons that I've put some iPhone style on.. thing is I don't have time for them right now so I won't start working on them again until the graphics for several apps are finished.
Wallpapers Thread - (Will eventually make a slideshow for this also)
Kind of a failure no one has requested a single one.. maybe the samples were too ugly, who knows..
Want me to design your app? Thread - (There will probably videos for each apps I'll do graphics for on their belonging threads..)
Lol, no work to see there. Just saying I'll assist if you want help with any graphics for your app. Still sayin'..
iLaunch Thread [My first default skin there (which I made for the actual beta release.... and which I hope they'll soon replace) was a complete failure because of the tight scheme I forced myself to work on (somehow), because of my lack of creativity and mainly cuz of my ignorance ... which ended up in an avarage theme that didn't look quite the way it was supposed to ... So, I hope I'll find a way to repay the iApps team ... thinking of making a brushed metal theme for iLaunch or something. Wait and see.. ]

What is the actual purpose of this thread?
And I hate to break it to you mate but your skillz are rather mediocre...

come on now mister, gotta give the guy some credit for his efforts..

I definitely give him credit for the efforts! Sorry not to make that clear. i am just not a big fan of threads in the line of "Look how many threads I am involved in" or "Rate my graphics"...
Nevermind my post then but still ...

I just made this thread (mostly for future purposes) so that if anyone ever wanna find something I've made (been part of) they can just click my signature and view it all.. sorry if I made you upset, this is not for credit.
btw the poll is a joke. and I don't want anyone to post "rates" of my graphics ... just want you to easily find my work if you want to.. (I'm not saying there are many people who do wanna find any of my work.. just in case).
I'm mediocre? Well, I haven't made much graphics yet.. maybe you'll like some of my future work..

lol, I don't want any credit for this.. and the graphics I've made haven't been any big efforts.. in the future I'll spend more time on things and hopefully someone's gonna appreciate my work!
EDIT: No credit on this thread anyway.. this thread is just for fast navigation through my work, as I've mentioned.

New theme/UI design

Hi,
for my Major Project I have designed/redesigned the User Interface for Android. It`s not the entire UI just a proposal with common elements.
If anyone is interested in designing a new theme for Android, have a look at the on-line presentation and the entire booklet at
http://softouch.igloo.si

very cool ! i like it
will it be released one day? very interested in

I dont have the programming knowledge to develop it, unfortunately.

cool stuff
Hey congrats! it looks very smart and the idea is very cool

404 Page Not Found
The page you requested was not found.

just tested it, works fine http://softouch.igloo.si/

woow!
It looks very nice!

nice idea and looking great

Hey !
It looks great & i want it absolutely !
Do you develop it???

sorry, no. don't have the necessary knowledge. But if somebody is willing to develop, I am happy to contribute additional design elements if needed.

I saw this thread ages ago and after much searching discovered it again. Have you had any more movement toward making it a reality?

Hi, as mentioned I do not do programming so I can`t create a theme. No dev has approached me either. Until then, this remains a concept

Wow.
Looks very nice. Good design job

Great design concept, it looks really nice.. well done!
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App

i dont have a rooted phone, but that looks like a very cool UI, hope it wrks out for you Bro

Thanks, It looks very nice to me.

thanks to all of you for thumbs up. Again, if anyone is considering making it into a launcher or theme, please contact me.

Hey, why dont you pm 'robocik' or 'coolexe'.. they come up with new roms all the time.. I really want to see this concept become reality..
