You should be able to change the wallpaper regardless; whatever the name is, both name and location of that file are coded into the HTML. I don't have Prestige, so I can't look it up for you, but if you can't find it surely someone here will be able to help.

(I'm with you, that wall is DULL.)

Got it :) How's this? I like it but I'm still nitpicking - I don't like how the font size for the docked and undocked labels is different. 'no undocked icon labels' in winterboard doesn't work - it just makes them black instead.

But overall I like this layout much better. I am colorblind so if any of the colors don't match, someone let me know!

Edit: Ugh, the more I look at those docked icon labels the more awful it looks. Must... find a remedy...

Looks better to me! As far as the icon labels go, I use IconRenamer from Cydia. There are also "No Docked Icon Labels" themes available there too--dunno if they work beyond 4.2.1 though, as that's what I'm still on. Or you can create/edit a plist for the theme to hide them.

Re-reading--that has to be a plist edit causing the size difference in the first place. Is there an Info.plist in the main folder of the theme? If so, what does it say?

Good call. Here's what it says:

<key>UndockedIconLabelStyle</key>
<string>margin-top:0px; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 10px; color: #a1a098; text-shadow: #000000 0px -1px 0px 0.6;</string>

<key>DockedIconLabelStyle</key>
<string>margin-top:5px; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 10px; color: #cbcac4; text-shadow: #000000 0px 1px 0px 0.6;</string>
</dict>

Same font size. I do have 'white icon labels' enabled in Winterboard. So I'll find that theme and check the font sizes.
 
Here are mine. Forgot where I got the LS, probably from this thread somewhere :D

After seeing a few people with Prestige I HAD to get it. These icons are just amazing!

Only thing I still want to tweak is my SB wallpaper. The default Prestige wall looks okay but it's a little dull for my tastes.

Edit: The Prestige theme is so weird. Wallpaper.png and Wallpaper@2x.png don't work. I have no idea where the actual wallpaper is stored. I guess the weather/time/date widget is tied into the wallpaper anyway though right? So I guess I shouldn't mess with it.

I thought with NOKI I had to change the wallpaper through the SB widget and not the theme itself. Have you looked there?

Note though that the hex code colors are different--and neither of them is white (which would be #FFFFFF). So they're going to look different from each other. Plus the docked one has a 5px top margin, undocked doesn't, and one shadow element is at 1 px while the other is at -1px.


LEXS--LOVE the LS wallpaper and concept. Colored line isn't doing it for me though. Solid, matching one of the text colors, and back down the opacity, maybe?

Yeah you were right. I'm not sure what NOKI is but I ultimately went into the widget folder to change the wallpaper.

Anyway, here it is after I changed the font colors in the plist file. Also played with the shadows a bit, hopefully it looks okay.

Yeah same here not sure about coloured line easy to remove using transparent overlay.

supervixen Thanks for the Downloads:)

Dane30 Mix and Match icons Tetra/Classica/others that I can not recall
from MacThemes.

2 Lockscreens coming shortly :) will upload
 
First time trying mediafire. I think this should work:

http://www.mediafire.com/?4b02gex38cnccm8

I have no idea how I don't know where I got that one. I know the source of all the rest of my themes o_O

It's gary008’s LT Blue. Around page 28 or so of this thread, IIRC. No, I don't have the thread memorized, but I dug that one out myself a few weeks back and had to link back to the original download. LOL
 
tadad1 love the theme but not sure how to fix this, i have a 3gs

Wasn't really designed for 320x480 screens, it looks like an artifact from image resizing most likely because all the weather icons have been highly optimized both through Photoshop and Pincrush.

Ok. I really liked the new clock display.

thanks
 
OK. saw in earlier thread Lisse12hr.theme and I love it. ONLY thing is I added my own LockBackground.PNG and I CANNOT get it to use that wallpaper. Super annoyed. I tried everything in macthemes to get it right but i'm still doing something wrong. What is that code to get it to located the background I want.

Here what the code looks like. I'm sure somethings wrong because the obvious.

<!-- Get User's Background -->
<div id="background">
<img src="/User/Library/SpringBoard/LockBackground.png" width="320" height="480">
</div>

Change this line to:
