I've been googling checking unread apps preferences and I can't find that white SMS and email widget skin anywhere. What is it?

In the last update, it allows you to change the icon to a custom one. Just put the icon on your SD card under data/com.kanokgems.smswidget and then choose that one when you put the widget on your screen

hi,
i liked this theme or widget whatever it is, can you tell me how you got the message and call icons? is it done just by custom icon or is it an application for changing icons of all standard applications
 
installing jdk right now so I can do actual screenshots, but for now I only have an oldschool screenshot :cool:

Eventually I will almost for sure get snagged into the rooting/theming direction - but not as of yet hehe :p
 
Finally Changed mine up a little bit

LauncherPro Plus with Gingerbread Theme
SuperClean DL09 ROM with BlackMod theme that I combined with FlatBlack theme

Lock Screen (Widget Locker, Digital Clock Widget by Maize, Minimalistic Text, SMS Unread Count Widgets, Circle Battery)

My new favorite app, SwipePad (You swipe from the bottom corner up and get a list of whatever 12 apps you put in there, allowing you to de-clutter your screen that much more)

Yes, you're right. I used Fancy Widget Pro and MIUI weather skin by GU5TAF & wowthatisrandom
And I also unchecked a lot in the settings, so it just shows the weather icon :)

LOVE that moon with the blue glowing and the stars :)



could you show us / me a screenshot with a sun/daytime weather icon? Deciding if I should get it.. Thanks
 
Thank you very much!! :) Sure I can give you some info :)

Here is what I used:

LauncherPro Plus with 5 columns, 7 rows
under "appearance settings" I checked "Disable wallpaper scrolling"
white line is included in wallpaper, you can download it here
clock: minimalistic text widget
battery: circle battery widget
SMS, calls, email count: SMS unread count widget with icons from this set --> download Simple font
(just copy the icons you wish to use for SMS unread count and put them on your SD card under \data\com.kanokgems.smswidget, then you can choose them as custom icons)
weather: Fancy Widget Pro, weatherskin is called MIUI Weather by GU5TAF & wowthatisrandom

Hope that helps :)

Oh, just one more thing: the wallpaper is customized for the width of my screen, so I don't know if it'll perfectly fit yours. You can find the unedited picture I used for it here: unedited wallpaper

Hi Knurpsi! Just wanted to let you know that I did get the wallpaper to fit my screen. And I didn't have to change it at all. It looks beautiful.

I now have the weather widget up and some minimalistic text on the left side. I got the weatherskin on the widget and it looks great!

I have to admit that I've never done anything this complicated before. LMAO

I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing so when I get something right it really amazes me! hahaha

I hope the sun will be out in the morning. Are there supposed to be clouds all the time? Or only when there are clouds. LOL

I really like the new set of icons you have on your latest posted desktop. I saw the link to where they are but since I don't have photoshop I may have to try to do something to them in paint shop pro. Not sure I'll be able to achieve the same affect. Are you a graphics artist?

I am seriously SOOOO happy and can't thank you enough for all your help. Your designs are incredibly beautiful.

Now...all my other screens are somewhat messed up after changing the rows and columns. Not sure what unchecking the scrolling screen did.

I'll keep you updated.

Thanks again so much!!!

I'm glad you like it :D Hope you'll get some sunshine soon, so you can see more than clouds in your forecast ;)

I'm no graphics artist at all. All I do is find some great icon packs, that I really like, on forums etc. If the color doesn't fit the homescreen I want to set up, I simply change it with photoshop. That's basically all the work I'm doing on those iconsets. Credit goes to the great artists who came up with those sets in the first place :)

I uploaded the bright white Blackberry iconset to my dropbox, so you can simply download it :) Here you go: white glowing Blackberry Icons

You're so welcome! :) I'm really glad you like it!
It's normal for the other screens to look "messed up" at first, after you changed the columns and row count. You just have to drag them into place again, so it looks "nice" again :D

Hope everything works out nicely for you :)
 
First attempt at "slicing" a pic with Gimp to use as icons.
