How do you change the homescreen buttons? - Desire Themes and Apps

Hi guys, just flashed this theme http://oxygenrom.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=14, but I still have the same homescreen buttons.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I want them to show like in this picture.
Would be nice to customize what the shortcuts are too, but I'm interested in that theme.
Any ideas? Thanks

It is possible with custom Launchers. For example, LauncherPro and ADW have this feature. You can find a lot of icons online, but I havn't found these yet. You can also change the dock.
If you can't find the icons, with LauncherPro you could put the image of this dock as your dock background and put invisible shortcuts on top of the buttons. It would work that way, but it would be kind of cheating and wouldn't have any customization options.
EDIT: Ah, didn't read the first part of the post as well as I should have! You have flashed a theme! I don't think the theme came with the launcher bar and icons.

Thanks for the reply pokku. Pretty sure the theme comes with launcher bar, I think they just need enabling. Do you know how to do that?

Need help creating a skin (WAD2)

Hello,
I am trying to make my first theme, and need some help
I am trying to base it off these two screenshots:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I have got the main page done pretty well, but not the top bar. Can anyone help me with the icons? Also, is there a font that would look more like the one in the screenshot?
On the second page, I am just stuck... I was thinking about making each little icon in a dock, and selecting it would make it open the dock_selected, with the selected icon in it, and then making all the rest smaller (that is sort of what I did for the main page).
Thanks!
Font looks like Arial, but I suggest Segoe. Icons should be easy to do.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=421944 , u may find that helpful
Is there a way to use Segoe font in WAD2? That isn't an option.
(I'm using WAD2 because it seems to be the easiest to make a complete "shell" in, and to customize)
And I'm AWFUL at making icons. I have no idea what I am doing with them

Hi
started this ages ago but couldn't be bothered to finish it, so started again,
this is just the icons and the fonts in the link below if you use desktop visualizer to add them and make sure you use five rows, will add more and make into a update.zip with added extras...... this means anyone can use these png well if you have adw or launcher pro .....
will dev more like themed dailer and menus and launcher bar etc but just incase you don't want that.

i like that clock...even tho it took me a while to read. no suggestions...maybe make the other icons fit the cubes? i dunno. different colours too. just personal pref tho.
Good work
Took me a while to see the numbers in the clock but once adjusted to it they were very clear. I would be happy with that.
Bottom looks too busy for me, maybe with a simpler background?
Love the deep slider bar!
Some people find it very difficult to see these numbers :-D
Some color and clock changes
download in 1st post
looking pretty cool with this numbers.
Thanks a lot. It looks so good ! :good:

Is there any launcher which supports Icon Shadow?

Hi, I have been a Nova Prime user for very long now, but as I change wallpapers almost every other day and I have a huge collection of white background wallpapers it's really hard and sometimes impossible to notice the icon labels. Because the icon labellings are white and the background of the set wallpaper is white too. So I am looking for a launcher which would support icon shadow, or icon label shadow, you know what I mean, something which will go in contrast of my set wallpaper.
Is there any launcher like that? I don't really want a bloated launcher as Go or else, like Nova or Apex would be great.
Thanks in advance.
PS:
In case I have not made myself clear here is an image of the problem I am talking about. Notice the icon labels.

Changing the iconset in Themes also changes the App Drawer icon - how to fix that?

I have emui 8.0.0.
I used two themes before, one of them only for its icons, and it didn't affect the app drawer icon nor widgets.
I customized the icons in the Theme app by adding a pink border, it also makes all the icons round.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Recently I tried messing around a bit and editing the themes that I have with hwtTool.
Now it seems like it's impossible to have both the icons I want from A theme, and the app drawer icon from B theme.
Any way to fix this?
From my understanding, the icons shouldn't affect the App drawer, because the App drawer uses the file in com.huawei.android.launcher and not the icons file.
