[PREVIEW] OSX Leopard Add-Ons

**Bear Hunter** · 11-01-2008, 01:12 PM

I'm giving the artists until Sunday. If they do not reply it will be released without their work.

Don't worry...you won't need all weekend to put it on. I have included detailed instructions with screenshots on what needs to be modified if you decide you want to move something.

**Rulez28** · 11-01-2008, 01:12 PM

Looks so great, BearHunter! Will you release tonight or later?

Edit: Ok, answered...

**Bernie-Mac** · 11-01-2008, 02:21 PM

Sunday? No I dont wanna wait that long

Patiently waiting for the release

**Chefanim** · 11-01-2008, 03:12 PM

Im pretty sure its Sunday somewhere

I like the glass effect. Cant wait to see my phone look like that.

Great job Bear!

Ok bearhunter, Gpsphone is the gameboy advance emulator for the iPhone ad iPod Touch.

So like a nice little gameboy advance widget would be cool or anything creative you can think of would be great.

I antcipate an AIM widget also. Cant wait for sunday

Hey Bearhunter, would you mind posting a gray wallpaper with mac stuff written on it?

**Bear Hunter** · 11-01-2008, 04:54 PM

Tokyo... I won't have the time to request permission to use this Gamboy Advanced or AIM icons that I found. To get it all you have to do is download it here. I'ts already made, just copy it into the PDF file that I will release on Sunday:

Gameboy Advanced:

AIM:
Browsing Icons on deviantART

Kimfamily,

Here is the wallpaper...again, I don't know who the original author is. If someone knows please let me know

**Tokyo** · 11-01-2008, 05:10 PM

Alright awesome. Super excited dude, anything else we can expect?

**Bear Hunter** · 11-01-2008, 05:54 PM

Expect it to be released tomorrow

The instructions included are very clear. I have also included an example theme folder structure for those who are new to all of this at the suggestion of jabbawalkee

Once released, I'd like you guys to share your modifications and have this grow into an even better Add-On theme since I am including all the PSDs. I am only one person, and do not have all the good ideas....that's where you guys come in.

Here is another idea for you smart folks to figure out. I'm sure your all familiar with the "Android" theme. I am assuming that the "tab" on the bottom brings up a separate screen that includes other apps. Would it be possible to incorporate that function to the "Dashboard" mask in this theme? Endstate would be a clear homescreen with a small tab on the left....then when pressed it would display the Dashboard with all the working widgets.

**Zehlek** · 11-01-2008, 06:22 PM

Bear Hunter. Since MMS is finally working with Fido, can you please make a Widget for Swirly MMS(doesn't have to say SwirlyMMS) and work it in also please? This is one awesome Themne. I love the weather with the 6 day forecast, the calendar, everything.

**Rulez28** · 11-01-2008, 06:28 PM

Nice idea. At first we can take a icon from Dashboard and copy it into /categories.app/icons. This Icon can choose in Categories Settings as the folder icon on Springboard. If you click on these icons you can manage all your Apps. So you have a clear Springboard, only with the basic Icons like Calender, SMS, Phone, Mail etc..

Is it that what you mean? This way it works with the Android Theme.

So, you will release today? In Germany it´s already sunday ;-)

Im pretty sure that tab on the bottom is just an icon for categories, I dont think its possible to do what you are thinking. That would be, just display the widgets in a category.

Is that how it works? I wasn't sure...I thought it was an animated page that displayed from the bottom.

**Rulez28** · 11-01-2008, 06:41 PM

It´s one special Icon, which is copied in the categories.app. After that, you can choose you modded icon in the categories list and add all your apps in that. So, if you tap on this icon on springboard, you will see all the apps you have added before. It´s a quite easy way, but really functional.

Yeah..that is easily done using a Dashboard icon. Personally I like to have my most used apps represented by widgets readily available on my home screen rather than having everything in categories. You guys have at it though...I am looking forward to seeing your modifications

**Rulez28** · 11-01-2008, 06:46 PM

For sure, Bear. But to see our mods, your part is it, to release that ****. I´m really tired, but i´m waiting streight for it... :-)

**Zehlek** · 11-01-2008, 06:49 PM

I so can't wait for this release

I'm no good at making icons man... I can modify the heck out of some, but I would still require permission to release it with this bundle. I have found something that might work (it looks a little "Window-ish" to me...so I personally wouldn't use it). It would require you to copy it and add it to the PSD file that I will be releasing tomorrow. Just resize it to your specifications and add drop shadow set at 31 in Photoshop

The widgets I created were direct screen shots off my computer. I like to keep my widgets and icons looking as realistic as possible.

If you don't like the .png referenced in the link above...do a search in the "Stereo's Leopard Theme"....there are a ton of icons there that you could copy and resize.

Very soon man...very soon

**computergeek99** · 11-01-2008, 07:09 PM

sorry guys, i appreciate your attempts to mimic osx in all its glory and sexiness... but i'm just not feelin the theme

**Bear Hunter** · 11-01-2008, 07:11 PM

Here is an example of how I have my "Spaces" Category set up.

In the README file you will see...I state to use the same wallpaper as your home screen as the "background.png". This is to replicate a second page on your phone (without having an actual second page - due to the widgets being present):

You can find the folders that I used here (I cannot include them because I don't have permission:
Browsing Icons on deviantART

I'm still not sure about it yet...I may just switch back to regular realistic icons, but here is the concept. You will note that there are categories within spaces as well:
