Themes on the C series

[padishah_emperor]

I\'m looking through the posts under \'Themes, Icons and Backgrounds\' and am surprised to find a severe lack of eyecandy.

Is no-one doing themes anymore?

I had tons of themes and ZStyle etc to make my 5500 look the bees knees, but they don\'t work with my C860 (with Cacko QT 1.21A)

Anyone know where I can find the goods? zaurusthemes seems fossilised and for the 5x00 machines, the ZUG theme downloads seem the same, even a bundle of themes ported to the C series does sweet nothings on my Z.

Help! Qtopia is becoming bland! I need eyecandy!!!

mmh, the underwhelming response says it all, I\'m the only person on earth who wants more eye candy...

mmh.. suppose I\'ll have to try and port KDE\'s plastik theme then....

I want more themes too! waaaaahhhhh

Yes!Yes!

I think I saw a thread somewhere on how to replace icons etc. Not quite a Theme, but maybe a start?

Where did you get them? I tried pdaXrom but the stock screens were a real turn-off.

WOW, that looks great. Strange that there are not a lot of themes for the Sharp-based ROM's.

Hmm?  dunno.. there was a thread somewhere sometime :->

I grabbed a bunch of 640x480 images from here and there (digital blashpemy?)
and I use holidayflo640 (fluorescence6 is the same in blue?)

The one in the upper left is gant -- I also went and found the full gant icon set (it's huge).

I should have clarified it a bit but I was referring to QT ROMs and the Cacko QT ROM in particular.  The pack of old themes DO work but symlinks need to be make from the pics directory where they are stored to pics144.

As for more eyecandy, you guys are just gonna have chew your lips and be patient, but I'm working on it

I'd be willing to work with someone to build a website to store Zaurus themes.  Something like themes.freshmeat.net, except mainly built for Zaurus users.

I've done websites for more than long enough, so I'd mainly need someone to design the look of the site and someone to organize and gather all the themes to start the site off.  I can do all the coding.

Myself et al will be publishing themes etc on a site in the next few weeks (or so), the URL will be made public then.  One contributor, who is not a forum person, has done some very original stuff, mainly abstracts and rasta stuff and I'll be making that available too.

I've got some working QT themes right now, but I cannot publish them just yet but all will be revealed in the fullness of time  

If someone can point me in the right direction to generate ipks, that would be nice and I may need a 6000 user to test stuff at some point, we can't leave our brick loving friends out

Padishah_emperor, how are the themes going?
