New thread for all my splashes.
I took the default wm 6.1 welcomehead splash and loaded it up into CS3 and made a nice blue splash. Matches very nicely with Verizon xv6800's external color, as well as people who use a Vista-like bluish theme (I use poorlyduck's). Even if you don't use a blue theme, it still looks very nice.
Enjoy!

gc,
I use a black theme and had used carlos' black vista welcomehead and it matched quite well. But the splash is only seen for a few seconds when the machine boots anyway, so I think I will give this a try. Looks very nice. Thanks.

Yeah I'm talking about a blue vista-like theme like poorlyduck's vista suite which I use. I know a lot of people have been asking about a blue welcomehead splash in other forums on xda, and so far none exist for wm 6.1 (plenty for wm 5 and 6), so I figured I'd play around for a while and make one.
Hope everyone enjoys...and if it's not your thing that's cool.

Yeah I like it a lot. Even though my theme is basically black, the welcomehead only shows itself when you boot up anyway. So I dont see it as clashing with the rest of my theme. I really like this welcomehead. Much nicer than the green one. Thanks

Hey, thanks! this looks nice and works well.
I liked a couple of the other 'vista' style welcome splashes i've seen, but they never seemed to boot right (would always ask me to go into safe mode)....
If you guys want any other colors...just let me know and I'll see what I can do.
No promises though
Glad you're enjoying it though!
Now your just showin off man....
Haha it pays to work at a place that gives you free reign to pretty much every piece of software you could think of...with an MSDN subscription, Microsoft EOpen Volume License software subscription, and what made all this possible...Open site licenses to all Adobe products lol
No way in hell would I have done this without it because I'm a computer engineer not a graphic artist, and certainly would not have gone out and purchased CS3.
How's that for showin off az?

Nickles, did you just save these images and then put them on your phone? If so, that's why you're having problems. These images are in jpeg format and the welcomehead splash needs to be in png format. If you loaded them up in an editor and re saved them as png, then loaded them to your \Windows directory I think you'd be in good shape. Though, I think mine is better hehe

Sounds like someone has just as cush a "j o b" as I do.... I got my shoes off, feet up and will be gettin a cat nap just as soon as I press Submit Reply, that is off course after I turn the radio to somethin a little more relaxin..... lol
Nice work, but honestly I don't see what all the hoopla about the boot screen is anyway... thanks to dcd's work on this incredibly stable ROM I don't have to reboot that often and only see my splash screen about once a month
lol...no hoopla...some people just like to make their phone look "cool" after they make it run "cool" with a custom rom.

Well, I will list several reason why I use it.
1. I made the skin and its different from everything that out there.
2. I like to party and go clubbing so it fits my style.
3. My sister and friend love showing off to their non business oriented customers to increase their sales.

Low resolution??? The animations are really really smooth but there are alot of them and there all full 240x320 images. I made it according to the 24 Bit BMP format requirement for brn files. If there are any problems I was hoping that the people who like it and would be able to help each other. I haven't had any problems with it other than running out of memory. But I do run alot of programs. I would like to know how stable it is on a touch since it has more memory than my titan.
It's all about the Bling and Flash!

The trend is all about the phone and what I have and what you don't. Since the marketing for the iphone has been very successful. Non nerds are invading the pda market. They all want to touch, stroke and feel all of my goodies.
Whao. I haven't had such a good laugh in a long time. Thanks guys!
Hey! You know, good job on the ROM. I can tell you put in a lot of effort and your intension's are in the right place. But I cannot say that would actually flash this ROM because I need to feel secure that I will actually be able to USE my phone after the fact. Also, I am not a fan of your UI graphics. I prefer a more sleek look 'n feel. Oh, and I like having lots of memory as opposed to running out of it...
I think this covers the list of requests for most people in your next version, if you decide to release one.
I call this skin "FASHION CUBE"
Here is my latest skin for the cube.
I think it has both a sleek and slick look.
Let me know what you think.
I am acutally trying to reduce the total amount of BMP to make a fast- stable - slick - sleeek- sweet.

Update
Hey, did you update the Zip Files with your latest. I am interested in testing.
Well, I do not know how to paint and painting is quite expensive to me, so i covered my Blue Angel with a layer of color paper (some kind of paper, I do not know what it is called in English).
Not really as perfect as painting but it is still good and cheap (just a little bit more than $1 in my country if you have to pay someone to do it for you) and fast (around 5 minutes or less).

I did install some cabs i found on this forum (edited one that change the startmenu) and made one cab to change the titanium screen.
I can cook it for anyone who need it because the cabs i used are quite easy to be used for cooking . However, since I did it for my own purpose, I did a full backup to save time (I still have to make a backup if I flash a cooked ROM as I have many things on this device)
You like it, don't you? I'll try to cook this as soon as I have time

Let's wake the old king up
Preferably a more subtle approach kind of like this:
http://compixels.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/Tron-iPhone-4-Theme.png
I'm looking mainly at the icon's I don't want a ridiculous launcher like on the bottom right picture. I can change my own background. Something more subtle than the ugly Tron themes I've seen for Android. I'm thinking Samcrow's theme with a more cyan light blue tinge to it.
The key is more black than cyan to really make it. I don't understand how some of the themes everything is cyan, it isn't even close to resembling the movie. All the suits are mostly black with cyan or red accents. I'm thinking a red version and a cyan version.
Again this is a request with my opinion in it and hopefully it didn't come across to pushy or obnoxious.
OH MAN!!! This would rock!!

I sent him a pm cause I would really like to see him make a cyan version of his theme cause I think it would look great.
Here are some of the icons in that orange color.
If I was an artist or knew how to do this pretty well I might put on a glowing effect around all the icons.

Both, and ya I stopped around 3am last night cause I had a meeting at 11am this morning one set of keyboards is enough lawl. Once I get the first one done I should be able to go in and change the colors a lot faster.

Ya, I had thought about making that one with blue for the "shift" letters, but never got around to revising it. Might actually be kind cool to do the main letters in blue and the shift letters in orange. I still have the original paintshop layered images somewhere I think....
Oh and I'm not sure if you've looked into it yet or not, but the "EN", "SYM", "ABC", etc. buttons will require some xml editing to get the color you're looking for. I can't remember which off hand, but I can look into it again if you need.

Well, you can open an xml in notepad (although I prefer notepad++), but you have to decompile the apk first.
I use notepad ++, I read in the theming tutorial that it adds 0's or something and it messes with the code.

I use Eclipse for a ROM so you will need to have that. Why? Because I cant test it unless I can install it.

Ill wait for you though since you were the first to stick an image in there. Since I havent seen it yet, it can be a color, favore football team, favorite beer, a design you grabbed. A wallpaper you like that you would like to see become a dialer button, etc... I could probably even make the entire thing transparent so your homescreen bleeds through to the buttons.
Weird It Shows Up On My Phone And Computer. I Changed The Link For You Let Me If It Works Or Not. Thank You X.
I'm Not Really Familiar With Dropbox So I Think It Was In The Wrong Folder.
It said "It seems you don't belong here. You should try logging in."
Mike.. I just PM's you my email address.
Mike,
Heres a couple quick edits I did to your image. Let me know if you like the style of either one or if you are still partial to the original you emailed me.
I'm Definitely Leaning Towards The Right One. The Left Looks Kinda Pink. This Is Gonna Be AWESOME!
I should be able to work on this today or tonight. I was going to last night but a nice sequence of events occured and I said screw it...lol
Making an Orange theme.... 1st, I edited about 20 .9png files. 2nd, I recompiled and all was well. Heres where I dont know why I did what I did... I deleted the new framework (probably thinking it was the old one) and then, emptied my recycle bin (which I never do). All gone....lol doh!
Caught back up now so I should be ok.

Ya That Does Suck. Why Orange? You Think It Would Look Good With The Red?
Sorry Mike, I was just telling a story. Probably should have worded that different. Your red dialer and my Orange theme are 2 different things.
Oh That Makes More Sense. Cool Deal.
This is done, I think. About to wrap it all up and test it on my phone. I'll post a few screenshots. Mike.. let me know what you think. If you dont like it, Ill edit it and if you do like it, I will email you the apk in update.zip format.
I told you I was making it or you so, I will not be sharing it. You will be the only person to have it. Sharing it is upto you.

Okie Dokie.
Also.. if there is anything orange or silver.. ignore it. Im basically running a mixture of 3 themes right now because IM too lazy to re install Eclipse fresh...lol
If you do see orange text, just envision it as whatever color text is now on Red Ice Cream.
OK, test 1 took but the buttons were stock. Thinking I am getting an overlay. Fixed what I think is the issue and installing it now.
By the way, I was right, the tabs are orange. They will be red on yours. they are pulling from the framework and I have my orange theme on my phone.
test 2.. took away the colors for pressing on buttons but I know where to go now. give me a few more minutes to do a little testing.
Installing test 3 now.
Still trying to get it to look like I want it to.. the buttons I mean. Everything else took. In call screen is pretty nice! (Just got a phone call)
Got it! Bastard...
Since I've bought my Streak I've always joked that I'm not allowed to go to the zoo anymore because the black monolith in my pocket might have an effect on the apes and monkeys

So anyway, an afternoon worth of goofing around with various bits of software resulted it this custom animation
2001 A Space Odyssey Monolith Bootanimaion
Copy the file to /data/local/ and enjoy the primates worshiping the advanced piece of technology you hold in your pocket.
Attached below are screenshots of the first and second part of the animaiton.
Dimensions are 720x320 since i didn't want to mess with the aspect ratio or crop the picture.
Software used:
Avidemux
GIMP
Boot Animation Creator
I hope you enjoy using it (i know i am) as much as i have enjoyed making it.
P.S.
I'm aware that the logo is actually rotated 90 degrees, but it wasn't going to be recognizeable that way.
Also logo looks like it's hovering in the air for a few frames in the first part, but it would have taken me a lot more time to integrate it completely seamlessly.
That's awesome! I wonder how hard it would be to make the monolith look like the Streak itself...
Hmmm...
Not that much harder, if you can get pictures of the Streak from the same angles (or nearly the same, that can be tweaked) as the monolith. The hard part would be to make it blend in to the first half where you have a couple of frames where an ape passes in front of it. Other than that it's just the same. Really the only difficult part of this was me getting to know the menus in GIMP a little better, otherwise it's pretty straight forward. If you have found or have managed to capture the pictures needed to place the streak in the place of the monolith and fancy a go, you can PM me in case you need any clarification how to do it. I just don't think I'd have the time or patience to do it myself.
Damn thats a nice looking bootanimation. So many bootanimations appearing the last weeks. Think I'll have to switch them every week in order to enjoy everyone
Nice. Looks great.
Where is the link to download it?
Sent from the SuperStreak! ;-)

Google docs link has been provided in first post. But is is not hyperlinked. Copy and paste in Browser.
Thank you Chirunavvutho for helping, I really should have either underlined or bolded the location, or both.
The location is not hyperlinked since I have registered only recently and am unable to link to external sites yet and the animation is too big to be uploaded here (~20MB).
Once I'm allowed to link to external sites, I'll make an edit to the post to make the location hyperlinked.
ouch...wow... what a huge size for a bootanimation
btw, this unique bootanimation is whort to try
will be more awesome if u can switch that black dell thing to android icon or streak...

Well, I saw someone had made an android boot animation based on a clip from 2001, however his bootanimation was ...... wait for it ......87.75 MB!!!
Anyway, the video and some of the linked uploaded files have been removed, most likely because of a takedown notice, due to the (i suppose) lenght of the clip used.
As for the second part , as far as I understand your post, you'd like the monolith in the boot animation swapped for an image of the streak or the android logo. Like i said a few posts back, it can be done, however:[tl;dr - what's the point] 1) it will look even more out of place in the picture and 2) It would be dificult for me and not worth the wasted time to make any of those 2 images blend in for the frames in which 2 of the apes pass in front. (I made an attempt to put in an image of the streak i found online, after cyapalmpos suggested it, well it was an hour wasted)
I'm not George Lucas, so don't expect that i'll come around in a few weeks and add or change something, then do it again and again.
However the tools I used are freely available so you can have a go if you'd like. This was done just for fun, to scratch an itch an to have a punchline for a weird joke. And I also realized after I installed it that it's something that I would rarely see, so there is no point in spending any more time with it, trying to make it perfect, if i only get to see it just occasionally, unlike, for example your theme which is something that you see almost all of the time when using the device.
Yeah I know GIMP fairly well enough, but like everyone has said I didn't have the time or patience to pull it off. It would end up looking pretty sh!tty.
The original animations fuggin ROCKS and I like it!
It's replaced my animation of Android pissing on Apple.
