Here's a threat JUST for Cube Icons so we dont have to go searching threw 50 pages to find icons.
If possible submit all file formats so we dont have to do any modifications. Png's, Bmp's and Brn's... whatever we need
Also, if possible ,so people like myself who suck at photoshop dont have to dink around and what not to have a horrible looking icon, maybe try and make it so all 3 cube colour background options are included (bottom middle and top) as well even going as far as making the media cube side icons to replace Music, Photos and Videos. In the new settings modification program its looking like we'll be able to modify the mediahub side shortly too very easily instead of having to go into the \windows and altering it from there.
Having all these icon spaces covered will just ensure that we have the option of placing them anywhere on the cube.
Add any icons you might have so we have all the files in one thread. Even if they dont cover all the icon spaces.
Carlosp's Touch Settings Program
If you do want to customize your cube please go to Carlos' "Touch Settings" Thread and download the program he's been working on. He has a new beta version available right now that makes it really easy to not only customize the icons on both your ApLauncher and MediaHub panels of the Cube but also now can change the animation as well so you no longer have the default icons showing up anymore when the cube spins.
Go here for the beta testing program:

OR go right to here to download the latest "actual" release of the progam (which doesnt change your animations):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=324556
If anyone has any requests to make for icons please dont hesitate to ask and I'm sure someone can get on making one. They dont take too long to make so please lets get a really good archive of icons going for the Touch!
Here's a quick referance list of where to find the icons that have so far been uploaded to this thread. Most Icons are only made for the ApLauncher Panel so far unless otherwise stated in the title. Should you require the icons that you like for the MediaHub Panel as well just contact the person who posted it and request it.

Download the Zip file below for the ApLauncher blank Icon set as well as the MediaHub Icon set to make your own. Remeber to post them for everyone to use.
Also, in order to convert your BMP files to BRN files so those of us with the CDMA version of the Touch you will need the BrnConvert.exe program. Very easy to use just drop your BMP file in and it converts it for you. Then package everything up in a Zip or Rar file and you are good to post!
You might want to attach a jpg with each file...
so people know whether it's worth downloading or not.
I'm curious though, why have BMPs and BRNs as well? The cube icons are all PNGs. You'd only need BNRs for the other face of the cube (Pictures, Videos and Music)

I've got a Telus branded Canadian CDMA HTC touch and wasn't able to load on normal PNG's for the icons. When I would the space would just be vacant of any icon all together and show a black space. The icons, even the ones on the application launcher side of the cube had to be in the BRN format. In order to convert the files to BRN they had to be in BMP format first which is why those are there as well. You wouldnt happen to have the blank grey backgrounds so people like myself can try and make our owns would you? I assume you had blanks in order to make the tomtom and Navigon GPS icons for us
Sure,
here you go:
Brilliant. This should help alot of people. Thank you! Do you have the Media Hub backgrounds as well?
Here are the blanks and the one that I've designed for my Touch
In case anyone wants to use them:
You got some nice media icons there, only the video one seems to have the wrong background, appears to be to light.
Quite right!
Re-posted...
Just being trying those media icons, but you don't have the blank for the main screen, so as mine revolves it shows the original icons.

I just reopend the files as BMP's and resaved them as PNG files. Try redownloading the tomtom files and load them onto your phone. If that doesnt work maybe try opening the BMP's yourself and save those as PNG's... Also is it possible that your cube requires the files to be in BRN format? I tried a number of different icons before I realized that I needed BRN files. When I would load the png files on I would just get an empty black space where the icon was supposed to be.

Thanks a lot, appreciate your good work!
By the way, is it possible to make the default MSN icon (with 2 people, 1 green 1 blue)?
Here's some alternative
MSN icons...
And a new Comms one
This was fun, doing the glowing rings:
MSN Live Black and White
Icon actually changes colour when icon is pressed as well.
Updated Icons as they were a little off center
Made a skin for the hybrid (dual OS) user. For fun only.
Things used: WA3, HTC home, skins and icons from different authors, some new skinning knowledge. I dont have softkeys visible at the bottom (I use only the hard buttons) so I get more screen space. The black one below is my replacement for the green 6.1 screen.
Having Schap's Advanced Config and KaiserTweak helps in addition to the above programs user menus, and Wisbar skins by Juni are sweet. I personally photoshopped the magnifying glass in the bottom left for the popups for the new tasks, as well as the "A" for apps, and moved the settings from another HTC home customizer icon set. dThis is a fast layout that is really simple looking but everything is accessible by hardbutton maps and touchscreen UI.
I was going to call it something playing off the Parallels idea, but the Titan doesn't have enough ram to make that believable
I will give you the skins and icon folders if you like any of this.

Maybe if some people want it, I will post links to the programs and the skin files I made but I would like to learn how to skin mortplayer a bit better. I have to put together the slices so I can skin it with the same background (notice it is a mix of the default desktop backgrounds for the two OS).
dude i want it
Here is what you will need. You will need the following:
Wisbar Advanced: This is where you will use the skin from inside Macrosoft WA toolbar.zip. Install skin file while in wisbar then make sure the windows/apple icon is there in the folder. If not overwrite with the one from the archive.
HTC Home and HHC Customizer 1.0: First you will need to load the most current HTC Home and then open HHC Customizer. Download the following skins: 1. Background = Transparent 2. Clock = Segoe shaded transparent 3. Mac Leopard. I turned off weather and music. You can do what you want. You will need to put those icons in the HTC Home folder into the one on the phone in the HTC Home folder.
Macrosoft background can be opened in pictures and videos to set as background with 0% transparency.
You will need to overwrite the welcomehead.96.png file. Cut from this archive and paste to \Windows.
Next, run the macrosoft.cab for a replacement background on the phone skin.
Lastly, you will need mortplayer and then unzip vista.zip and extract vista.mpz to mortplayer's folder in \Program Files\Mortplayer then select that from the menu.
That's it. Let me know if you have problems or if I forget something.
I was wondering if someone is willing to help with this?! ( I don't know if there's a similar software)
I edited the config file of throttle launcher and basically deleted everything and only kept the lower slider setup. I put links to my own softwares and also links to the icons I wanted ==> what I got is a COOL software launcher that I can use as a today pluggin!
See pic I attached (I drew in the red/yellow box => that's the icon that shows up when sliding on the lower menu, but for some reason i can't capture it when taking a screen shot)
What I'm having problem with is:
- having it show up in ultimatelaunch
- the height must be at least around 150pixels for the icon that pops up above the menu to show (150 pixels is a lot of space)
- can I get the background transparent?
I hope that APBilbo don't mind this...
this actually is a good idea...
about the transparency: have u tried editing the png images and make them transparent, using a prog like GIMP? or maybe it doesn't work that way.

Why I will mind ?
In fact throttlelauncher started just beeing a program launcher app with photocontacts posibility.
Ok, lets go with your problems.
- About the transparency, you have to set transparency = true param on the skin.xml file your row or setup is using.
- To make it work inside UL, seems like UL doesn't act exactly like the today screen while embeding today plugins. After starting UL with Throttle embeded you have to manualy start the app "ThrottleTodayPlugin.exe" located on the throttlelauncher folder instalation. It should work .
If you're also interested, there's a only photo dialer setup at my forum to achieve the same that you have with programs with photocontacts . In fact, you can mix them having programs first on the ribbon and after some of your contacts .
http://www.throttlelauncher.com/forum/showthread.php?t=23
Also if you don't want the icon preview showing, you can try using the scrollingmodes "Paged" or "Kinetic".
Hope this helps...
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?!
Is it possible to make the Icons bigger on the Home- and Menu-Screen.
The Icons are for human with handicap too small :-(
My N2E is rooted with SalsichaNooter 0.4

On the Home Screen you can use DesktopVisualizeR to add icons as big as you want (actually they are widgets, but works the same as icons). You can find it on Market.
Thanks, this was what i want
I use Go Launcher and it's got a setting that lets you custom resize all icons (and text size). Change the setting once and it automatically resizes all icons, including ones you add or move. You can make the icons very large, if that's your desire. Now if only I could get MARKET to work smoothly!
