Hi guys,
This is an almost completed theme for rlToday and Ultimatelaunch. The top is rlToday, bottom is UL. Thanks to bluemetalaxe for his great clock, which I used to pattern the icons from. The basic layout I sort of patterned after FocalDesigns last two rl skins. Everything is finished except cleaning up a few details in the XML and UL ini. Anybody else got something new their working on? Let's see it and let me know if you like this skin, or how I can improve it.
Finished, hope you like it!
Looks great.
waiting.....

Great Skin, just a suggestion all of your examples have a Analog Clock theme you should carry this over to your S2U2, so the Theme continues to carry through. Just to show you I did one for one of my own themes.
Keep up the good work.
Good looking theme, but what about VGA devices?
Files uploaded!
Go to post #1 to download the zip file.
Win_XP, I'll try to resize for VGA, but I have no VGA device, so no guarantees, but give me a few days and I'll see what I can come up with.

OK, as most of you probably know, I'm not the big designer...
The background and the general idea is based on notilad's Clear Glass icons set.
Note the icons don't look well on bright backgrounds - they only consist of semi-transparent white...
The main icon image templates are mostly from the free Tango icon library, but some are also from Windows resp. the default app icons, and a few from other icon libraries I found out there...
The SPB PocketWeather theme is based on SPB's Black47 theme.
For SPB PocketPlus, there's also an iconset with black background, so you can memorize the position of the wanted icon there - because it's really hard to see white icons on white background...
The screenshots show some examples: The Today screen uses PocketPlus with SPB Weather as rightmost plugin, below is a custom phoneAlarm Skin using the TGA icons. The MortButtons main menu uses the PNG icons.
Thanks, I will be using these in my WAD2 setup.
Thanks!
Will also try to make a nice looking WAD2 Skin out of them!
this looks incredible! how do I even begin to get something like this on my x1 given that im clueless to installing and making all this unofficial stuff?!
I thought maybe someone might be interested in HTC Diamond theme for S2U2 so I made my own. It's not perfect and the clock is not mine, but I've made there a couple of changes - used original TouchFLO 3D icons, used original WM 6.1 icons for statusbar, made all new slider (matching the HTC Touch style), fixed and cleaned the background (found here on XDA). All info is in enclosed ZIP file.
Enjoy.
EDIT (March, 1st): Screenshots slightly out of date.
LATEST VERSION 1.5x: Initial release (March, 1st)
LATEST VERSION 1.4x: V04 (February, 8th)
Version history 1.5x:
Initial release
All files updated in order to comply with 1.50 version
Included original S2U2 1.50 Diamond style as well as my Diamond Glass style
Version history 1.4x:
V04
Updated "redcircle.png" by original TouchFLO 3D images
Updated "system.png" by original HTC and Windows Mobile icons (alarm icon from TouchFLO 3D, WiFi nad BT icon from HTC WM)
Removed black background from "system.png" in order to make it compatible with light wallpapers = no more black rectangles
Added landscape "manila" wallpaper
V03
Corrected some "manila" clock files
Deleted screenshots from the pack
Added two new wallpapers
Added "glass" version of wallpaper and clock
Updated "readme.txt" in both Czech and English
V02
Cleaned the wallpaperb.jpg
Intial release
Known limitations of the skin/S2U2:
(red = 1.4x, blue = 1.5x, black = both)
I haven't designed the skin for neither S2P nor call answering. The skin was designed to look exactly like on the pictures I've enclosed.
The clock format must be set to "HH:MM" (01:30 format), otherwise the clock will be bad-positioned.
You can't use the "show large battery" function because it would mean there are no flips under the clock (the flips are parts of the wallpaper - just have look at the templates).
I STRONGLY RECOMMEND TO UPDATE TO THE LATEST 1.5X VERSION SERIES.
Very nice work, i know some released a similar version earlier but this looks like it fits in with TF3D alot more. Thanks!
Nice work, thanx
Diky, rad vyzkousim
Great job. If I may make a small request though as to change the white flip clock to the glass flip clock? I would really appreciate it. I use the glassclock on tf3d so it would just match better thanks in advace

Even though I said there would be no updates or whatsoever, I think that shouldn't be a big problem for me. If you were able to get me a screenshot or point me, where to get the source files, I can give it a try.

Nice work! Just a little note - why do you have the "flips" moved slightly to the right? Is it on purpose? Anyway - I've made another version if anyone found it useful.

Done and included in both pack (since V03) and templates.
Farkin Sweet! Thanks a ton for creating this, I REALLY appreciate it. Especially the templates! (Once I realized that it wasn't actually a real flip clock and half of it was part of the background.)
Great to hear that - anyway - just a little note - I haven't received any answer from the glass clock author, so I had to "rip" the source files from manila themes using the Manila Editor. The numbers are made by myself (actually edited), but I hope it looks pretty much like the original you wanted.
Wow, good job on that. I opened your glassclock template in Photoshop, inserted my own wallpaper, and sharpened it. Here's how it came out. (the only glitch i have found so far is that when the clock goes from 12:59-1:00 that the numbers slide over and no longer match up with flip clock outline.) Because of this, I'm not sure if my wallpaper for landscape will match (I have a TP). But I made one anyway. I also added a little more dimension to the slider and posted it.
:Edit: I got the glass to look a little more glassy/transparent. Now if only I could get the one in tf3d to be the same lol
The thing is that the clock format must be set to "HH:MM" (01:00) instead of "H:MM" (1:00) - there's unfortunately no other way. But I think I've mentioned it in the readme file. And what more - that's true that I haven't made the landscape wallpapers either.
EDIT: I've added the ZIP file containing the landscape templates. Thanks for your great idea!
Thanks for another template. Glad I could give you the idea. I took your advice about the clock and other than the a big "0", it's balanced. so I can deal. I also got bored and remade the slider icons again, and again, and again check 'em out! tell me what you think.
I think they're pretty good!
Great stuff. Thanks for your help.
Is there anyway to make the flip clock flip? Mine does not flip.
As far as I can tell - it's impossible.
That is what I figured. thanks.
For those who have used my blackdrop in the past, here is an update for the blackdrop theme for tfl3d. I might be late to the TFL3D game... but for those interested its here.
As with the old blackdrop... It will blend with any wallpaper... As we sometimes want a specific background, but a theme might not mix well. The blackdrop's intent is to make it all transition.
Made it a simple theme with the following:
No dotted lines
Translucent focus bars
Translucent buttons (ex sms icons, email icons, envelope, music and so on)
Glass clockface (not a flipclock)
Again my goal was making it easy to blend with any background of your choice...
Made for TFL3D (from a stock sprint)
Install:
Just download and place it in your themes folder.
Use the tfl3d config -> go to appearance -> find the path -> and apply.
Enjoy the 1st simple version!
More updates will follow with different bg imbedded as you see above.
Any comments will be much appreciated. Thanks and enjoy!
****Having troubling with adding the theme... will try again****
Try here for now if interested:s2w Blackdrop revised TFL3D
Here is a matching psshutXp
*Reserved*
looks very fine
Like your theme, but I have just binned TF3D in favour of SPB MS3, but I would still like to use your nice psshutxp skin, I headed over to PPCGeeks but I can't find a download link for that so could you upload that one here please?
Hi, I really like this theme, however I'm running on an HTC Fuze from ATT. I was wondering if this would work on a GSM phone and is there a download link? Thank you.
I made a clock to suit my own tastes and match my blue focus theme. Thought some of you may like it as well. I mainly deal in sliders and manila mods and dlls-but thought I would give it go with clocks.
Many thanks to osrix for his detailed help and to chainfires CFC Gui for the wonderful program.
