[RELEASE] OSX LEOPARD ADD-ONs

Alright, so I am still trying to install these blank icons. I have everything working other that the blanks. I have not idea what I am doing wrong here.

For whatever reason, I have got 1 blank to on my phone. It is from Leopard 3.1 when I touch it it still pulls up a blank screen then closes(is that normal?). I put it under /applications. I can't get anymore to show up. I am at a lost over this and it is driving me bonkers.

I appreciate any help that someone has to offer.

**Coulter45** · 02-12-2009, 03:08 PM

**dsg** · 02-12-2009, 03:25 PM

first try installing SBSettings then open SBSettings hit the more icon then Dock Applications then hit the fix blanks button and wait for the respring. see if that helps

Thanks very much for the help. I would never have figured that out.

Thanks a lot Bear Hunter! Not a huge amount of tweaking from me but this is how my home screen looks, at the present time.

Hey guys,

Sorry haven't been on here lately. I had to have a second surgery on my back. Your screenshots look great, and thanks for helping each other out.

Bacman....Outstanding job on the landscape version brother!

**JStraitiff** · 02-14-2009, 03:57 PM

love the icons

**Saintzfan607** · 02-15-2009, 02:20 PM

I have tried this many times, and the other widgets besides the weather and calender dont work! The DVD site is down and whenever I open a widget up, it just opens up a blank tab on safari

Saintz, you have to create transparent icons for the apps you want to open off springboard. I have added a few screens as examples.

The "Facebook" app on my home screen is not an icon but actually apart of the Wallpaper.png. I created a transparent icon and named it "Facebook.png" and placed that transparent icon in the "Icons" folder of the "uLeopard" theme. Then moved that transparent icon over the part of my wallpaper that has the Facebook logo. I did this because the placement of the Facebook logo wasn't exactly where I wanted it so I put the logo on the Wallpaper itself exactly where I wanted it.

I also did this for the Weather and VLC player. Now when I press my finger in the vicinity of the transparent Facebook, VLC, or Weather parts of my wallpaper those apps will open since the apps call off the names of the icons (Facebook.png, Weather.png and so on).

The DVD site is no longer available due to T&C (terms and conditions) issues between whoever was running the DVD site and their provider. People were uploading videos from tv shows and movies which allowed us to stream them and apparently the provider shut them down for it. Could have been bandwidth issues too I am not totally sure. Sucks but this is what we have to deal with these days even if the people uploading the content purchased said content.

Hope that helps you out.

last but not least
i can get rid of all the widgets or only keep the forecast and place also the meteo in the statusbar

Ok so how to I create a transparent icon? Do I need photoshop knowledge?

**KeLeBoR** · 02-16-2009, 02:37 PM

@bacman: little idea for the landscape theme...Is it possible to make the nr. in the SBBadgeBG invisible?

**bacman** · 02-16-2009, 02:53 PM

@KeLeBor
thks, may be but where to seek the numbers? because if i knew, i could try to rotate them :-))

**crimson_fried** · 02-17-2009, 01:56 AM

I've downloaded a few walls that people have been nice enough to create for us here in this thread so I figured I'd make a couple myself to pay back the effort. Made some changes to the icons in the dashboard on one or two and changed some of the shading a couple of other things. Anyway, I hope someone will enjoy these and thanks to everyone that has taken the time to post and create in this thread for the rest of us!

Ok I just cant get the current date to show up. I changed the info.plist to the origional file, changed the color, and everything I could think of, and the box on the left is still blank.
