[Q] Metroid Theme? - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm a huge fan of metroid, and wanted to theme my vibrant in metroid (consequently calling my phone the metdroid, I know, I'm awesome.) Is there a theme out there (as I have yet to find one)?

if you add me on gtalk I can help you do this... I dont want to steal your thunder or anything but it can be done... send me a pm if you want to learn how to theme...

Eh, I'm still playing with the asthetics of my phone, so it'll be a ways off before I theme it myself.

Donate I'll make wicked theme

That's called buying, not donating...

Yeah, I'm not particularly inclined to give money to someone for something I've never seen before, no matter how much I'd actually like the product.

If you want to gather some resources, preferably some vectors maybe... i might be able to contribute

Like I said, I don't really know where I want to go with this yet. All I know is that the basic direction of the theme would be metroid and that touchwiz blows.

The only idea I have at this point is that for the market there would be a bag with a metroid on it instead of the android guy. Admittedly, that's very little to work with. I don't want it to be too metroidy, to the point it becomes cheesy. Just something that is clearly metroid inspired android. And good looking, haha. It's a start, but there's a lot of thinking left to do.

So, you want a theme that's basically an icon replacement for the Market?
I'll do it. What's your offer?

Oh no, I want much more than that. A full theme. If that's all I wanted, I would easily have that covered myself. Its just the only real idea I have right now, other than the idea that I don't want things to have a metroid icon for the sale of having a metroid icon. It all has to be meaningful.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App

I'm thinking it would be cool to have a battery widget based on the metroid energy take ui, but I wouldn't know where to begin with that.

what would really be awesome is having a metroid live wallpaper like when you touch it it flexes and when you touch the screen it follows you especially when moving through screens.

I like this better than the theme idea.

Ok, my idea is to make the home screen look like the HUD from the metroid prime series. Energy tanks a battery, the transparent orange view finder. Lots of icons from the original metroid should be easy to find. Love the lwp idea also. I have an awesome sound board you should try. Search in market for dev. Unstable apps.

Looks great so far. I just mentioned to someone the other day how they messed up never having Carnage in any of the Spiderman movies haha.
@ pro2kon...what do you mean by milky? What would you change about it? I'm open to ALL suggestions. I do wanna keep it an overall dark red & black though.
If spiderman 3 hadn't sucked so much, carnage would have been the next logical step in the movies....but they ruined venom for me, so i wouldn't want them to do it to carnage....one of the most underrated villains in the marvel universe.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Looks fantastic for sure, excellent work!
I think the red on EVERYTHING is a bit overwhelming. Red tends to look better as an accent color instead of the only color. I would incorporate more greys and less gloss, but that's just my opinion, of course. Looks nice overall, though.
Sort of off-topic, but isn't a new Spiderman movie being done as a re-imagining of sorts?
But the red is more of the accents of the theme....don't mind the wallpaper...it just sets the mood of the theme....

[App Request]

I started this thread hoping I can get a experienced App Dev with good graphics skills to make me a HD Chicago Bears live wallpaper. I've been trying to get this for a while now. I know a lot of Dev's here make tons of free apps, but I know time and effort is valuable so I definitely don't mind PAYING. Actually it may sound crazy, but I actually like paying for a quality product/service. I feel it's a good balanced formula assuring both parties are happy. There use to be one in the market a while back but the graphics and usability was just horrible.

i have something cooked up for you, SHOULD be ready by tonight.
what do you want the color of the background to be? black, white, bears blue/bears red?
i would suggest picking a color that goes good with your phones homescreen layout.....a good wallpaper doesnt look good unless it fits in
Probably like gradient Chicago Bears colors, or better yet you can maybe do a grass turf looking background color. That's the thing, however you make the live wallpaper I'll theme everything else accordingly. Let me know how much for your creative masterpiece? I truly appreciate your work buddy.

wallpaper idea if you're a fan of an NFL team

So, I was looking at the new nike gear for the nfl teams, and I noticed they have an awesome picture of the gloves, with a black background for all NFL teams. Now, there aren't a ton of wallpapers for Chiefs fans, and the ones that there are in the android marker look hideous. So I screenshotted the gloves, used wallpaper wizardrii, and this is what I came up with:
