Root [Theme] Quicksilver - Operators are standing by!

I noticed you changed your "easter egg" :) haha I like it. great work as always brotherswing :D I've been wanting to create my own theme but all I have for internet is my phone, oh well. still my favorite theme!!!
 
Thanks! I changed the notification footer because Quicksilver is getting more popular, and I don't think everyone who uses it is going to be interested in kids movies.
 
Good looking skin.

However I am personally not a big fan of the status bars for wifi and cell signal. At least on the Optimus V, the circles are very difficult to read.
 
Fixed status bar visibility issues, no longer transparent. For best results, go menu-settings-cyanogenmod settings-interface-status bar tweaks-status bar appearance, set to ROM. Battery icon now themed to match. New lockscreen icons. More refinements to come.
 
I just flashed the 0212 refined quicksilver theme and am really digging it! It's my first time with any of your themes and am quite sold on it! One question I have concerns the scroll bar: many web sites have white background and it seems like the scroll bar I'd white, too, making it hard to see. Is there a way to change this in the tweaks that I'm not seeing?
 
I hadn't noticed, but I'll look into it. I always take feedback seriously, so I should have that issue delt with.

Edit:: New build coming tonight (maybe) or tomorrow. Pending changes: recoloring scroll bar, new skin for footer bar, and some other stuff I can't think of right now.
 
Flashed 0219 BACKside + your updated theme and it works great! The grey scroll bar is now visible on pages with a white background.

Thank you so much!
 
Your welcome. It really has improved the visibility in certain screens, thanks for the suggestion! I value any and all feedback, so far the various suggestions from the community have made Quicksilver the theme it is today. ;)
 
mmmmm .... lemon fresh scent.

The quick and dirty method is to upload a theme apk instead of framework and systemui, then after cooking open the zip file and look in the app folder, I think. Not near my laptop so I can't look it up for you. Check the theme chooser thread, I mention the path.
 
Thanks for the awesome work. Unfortunately I'm a newbie and I'm having trouble getting things to look like what you've posted. First, I downloaded the apk and installed and that didn't work so I flashed the theme like I should have the first time. It came up and look different than what I had before. I then changed the background. Then I installed ADW elegant them for the icons.

This is the part I'm not sure about. I chose to use ADW elegant as my theme. How do I use only the icon set? I'm not getting the reflections in the launcher bar thing at the bottom.

One last thing, how do I modify the clock and add the battery indicator to the lock screen? Thanks
