• WIP Death Note Theme
    7 replies, posted
Here's something that I've half assed done today since I was bored, it's based off the anime "Death Note" and it's the second notebook as I personally think it looks more cool than the original. The lock screen slider is "MiniSlider" from the MMi repo, but I intend on modding it a little to be more themed. The icons are Monochrome Agua and I don't really intend on making custom themed icons because otherwise they'll just look crappy like the other DN themes on Cydia. I need to do [i]something[/i] else with the dock, but I don't really know TBH... that and I really need to change the App text colour and page icons.

If possible, you should make the home menu text black. It can be difficult to read with a white background.
That's pretty awesome. Try to change the area around the clock too, oh and make tons of icons, or no icons at all. Because I hate having 50% different icons and rest normal. Looks really good else than that.

Also, the idea was to make no icons (I've just got Agua sitting under this theme right now) because to make anything themed for this would come out completely ugly and unoriginal [url=http://modmyi.com/forums/attachments/new-skins-themes-launches/369280d1248915118-complete-death-note-theme-0-2-release-wallpaperpreview.png]kinda like this[/url]. Thanks for the feedback though!
I like the theme. It seems you put a lot of effort into it! Plus, I hate death note and any other anime, so believe when I say that it's really good! :D
[img]http://w3k.id.au/t/IMG_0061.PNG[/img] The icons are still Monochrome Agua and I don't intend on packaging them. The only thing I feel like I'd want to change is the page icons from a circle to a little "\" type thing. I did want to port the DN font over to the iPhone, but I thought that using the Notes.app font was easier to read and looked nicer. I also tried raising the margin above the docked text labels, but they get cut off. Aside from the slider which I still haven't touched, I can't really think of anything else to do with it other than maybe changing the lock/unlock sounds to give it more of a "notebook" feel.
It looks nice now. I think you should feel free making the usual dock icons a different color, as most people have Phone, Safari, iPod, and Mail as the dock items. In that screenshots, the icons are fine together and don't really look like they stick out. As for the font, it's nice, but perhaps you should make one with more serious fonts, as well. There also seems to be a problem with the letter 'g.' The Settings icon's text seems to be cut off, making it look like a Q or an A.
It looks very nice. I wouldn't want to use it, but that's because I don't like Death Note. Yes, you definitely should finish it. A bunch of people I know who like Death Note would certainly use it.
