myPod | iPod-like Theme with two interfaces to pick from

doon · #1 (**permalink**) 2nd Jul 2006, 4:14 pm

hi all,

this is my first theme based on nabilash's great work. i am calling it "myPod" for now.

unfortunately, for my player (using 3.5.37), his files could not be used 1-to-1. so, i decided to create my own with his files as inspiration.

here is the first one: standard iPod list view...

i added a scroll bar and played with 2 font sizes.

my second one, is a carousel, or looped interface:

for this, i borrowed heavily from the OSX look and feel (as well as the iTunes store).

if anyone is interested, i can try to post these files as a zip (i am new here and am still figuring tings out).

also: i have started updating the lower level menus, but am running into issues with my player not refreshing the screen as i move the cursor around (leaves a white space where the cursor was). we'll see.

You can download it from here. (please see the updated file for download further down on the page).

thanks,
doon

doon, Nice work, it would be great if you uploaded it to the themes section. I think it will be very popular.

Cheers

Hi
I used the images in your first post to use them in my firmware I could upload the bitmaps and firmware (3.5.37) if i's ok by doon. It's the ipod one and it looks great by the way. So doon if it's ok for me to upload it then just say.

hi folks,

sorry for the radio silence. work has kept me busy...

uploading the images (as a ZIP) now.

well, i am glad these have resonated with the group!

thanks,
doon

Ko: i imagine you are breaking up the GIF ani and using the individual images, right? let me send you the original files atleast. this way the gradients will be much cleaner and the text sharper.

hi all,

i am calling the theme "myPod" unless i can figure out a better name.

i have uploaded the ZIP, but i guess it takes a bit of time until it shows up.

the ZIP is about 1 MB and includes the following:

- all exported BMPs
- PNG (Fireworks) working files
- Myriad Pro font
- previews of both themes

btw, i have BOTH themes on my player at the same time. i sliced up the classic list into two bits and replaced all of the BMPs for the "dynamic" menu. additionally, i imported the carousel BMPs for the "static" menu. make sense?

enjoy,
doon
