Post your 2.0 Springboards

Apologies for that -- you have a much better handle on the situation than I gave you credit for. Is it just app store applications that are misbehaving? Are you using winterboard to switch the icons or are you editing them directly in the application's folder?

Np. You've actually got me to test that. Thank you. From what I gather it seems that the typical iPhone icons that come standard with the OS are able to be small in size (16x16 and such). I have just changed the Stocks.app icon to a 16x16 icon and it worked fine. I tried this same 16x16 icon on Tap Tap downloaded from the App Store and was unsuccessful. The icon was stretched to it's original size.

Perhaps there's another way to edit an App Store icon to shrink it's size without making a transparant icon of original size and placing the smaller icon inside.

I like the reaction of the other System icons as they only register the touch on the smaller 16x16 (etc) area and not the 60x60 transparant square. Though I may have to cave for the time being if I can't find a solution.

My current ways of changing icons are with iFunstastic (really awesome problem in my books) and while I'm at work, I ssh to the phone and replace the icon.png. Winterboard I use but only to install the themes I create in iFunstastic.

Hope that makes sense lol. Trying to type this quickly at work.

Yep. :)
I am currently messing around with adding more and more HTML elements to the wallpaper.html. I was always planning on moving the weather up, and I am quite unhappy with the lack of clock when in apps. I can't make it the exact way I want it (YET.) At the moment I am a bit obsessed with tuning the iphone to get the best proc performance. It seems to me that adding lots of HTML effects to wallpaper.html really hits the processor. It is averaging 9-14% CPU almost constantly.

[Side Note: Is there any way to view the iPhone's screen on a computer? Like VNC?]

Been tweaking and changing..

This is a combination of several things... The icons are from Vivid, the dock is from Glass Orbs, the wallpapers change with the weather (thanks to the weather widget from Zetetic at macthemes2) and are from Doreen at macthemes2. The temperature is a custom change I made to the WeatherWalls css.

i jailbroke my iphone a couple days ago and this is what ive settled on for now. ive customized the SMS received and the mail received to the codec sound in metal gear solid. i occasionally set it to the mario power up sound effect.

very VERY cool. How do I get that? can you upload your ___ folder so I can download and replace?
Click to expand...

Zipped up, the folder is 12.5 megs because I put everything into one folder as one theme because I've been tweaking. I'm not sure if I can post a file that big here. If I can, I'll be happy to post it.

I can provide you with the WeatherWalls.css modifications that I've made. The wallpaper images themselves can be found in this thread -- http://macthemes2.net/forum/viewtopic.php?id=16788623. You can get Vivid from Cydia and the glass orbs dock is somewhere in this thread a few pages back.

I am curious if you can upload just your weather icons.

Thanks!
 
I already have Weather Widget. I just have it on the bottom on the right and left sides..not as a toolbar. If you go back a couple of pages, I posted a theme of what it looked like. How do I get it onto the background with the grass and stuff there?

Download and apply one of the weather themes from teknidermy. I can't post it here, because the file size for .zip files is limited to 1.4mb. And frankly, it's not mine to distribute.

My WeatherWalls.css is here:
Code: 
#WeatherContainer{

}

#TextContainer{
	z-index: 0;
	position:absolute;
	top:330px;
	width:320px;
	margin-top: -200px;
	margin-right:-380px;
}

#TextContainer p{
	display:inline;
	color: black;
	text-shadow: green 0 0 2px;
	font-family: sans-serif;
	font-weight: bold;
	font-size: 128px;
	margin: 0 10px 0 5px;
	z-index: 1;
	opacity: .10;
}

#blankContainer p{
	margin: 0;
	padding: 0;
}

#city{
	display: none;
}

#temp{
	float:right;
}

#desc{
	display: none;
}

#weatherIcon{
    height:480px;
    width:320px;
    position:fixed;
    top: 0;
    left:0;
    z-index: -1;
}

In Wallpaper.html, I assign the Location and Description sections to the blankContainer class so that they do not appear because I know where I am.
 
Draven, any slow down in performance? I am already using some pretty decent weather icons, but I think I like yours little bit better.
 
what? do you have AIM this'll be much easier.


okay, one more question. How do I get the icons from Vivid onto the icon set for the Bliss?
 
I put the day and date on my homescreen. I'm still tweaking with the font and color to get it to look just right, but I think it looks pretty good so far. I'm not sure what font Apple used for the time in the status bar or what the exact color code is. I saved a screenshot and did the dropper on it in photoshop, but then when I applied the color code to the day and date it looked a lot darker. I dunno hehe. I'm using Helvetica as the font, not sure if it matches... If anyone knows what font they use please let me know. :)

Please help me decide! Should I have a status bar border on top or not? Thank you!

They are in var--> stash--> Themes.xxxx

Go to the theme, and find the folder called, "Icons."
