I know the clock and calendar icons are widgets, but are the photos and music icons widgets too?

**modmpt21** · 04-07-2010, 08:22 PM

The photos and music icons have to be widgets!!! That would be awesome!!!

What is the ETA on this designer????

Thanks for all the comments guys, I am in discussions with a couple of people on getting this done. Will keep you all posted.

I should have the springboard working with icons and desktops in the next day or so, widgets Nic is helping with.

What you see in the preview on the first page is purely a Photoshop image of what I want to achieve. Essentially I want to have widgets like a desktop on the first page and then move to each page set out in a similar way. How these other "desktops" appear I havent settled on yet as I am not 100% happy with it. I would love to have widgets per page, THAT would be something of an achievement!

At the moment I havent decided if it will be 2 releases 1 portrait 1 landscape or a single SBrotator compatible. Only reason being is that SBrotator needs to be fixed.

Do you want to have the same widgets on all pages with different color backgrounds? Or do you want different widgets on different pages?

Different widgets on different pages. One idea I have for this is to have the panels reveal each widget. Each page then could have maybe 1 widget that suits and is shown by not having a 1 or 2 panels covering it. Although I dont think I like the idea of the panels on each page. They kind of look ugly as app icons. (This is seeming more and more like a "version" of iOS to me, ha ha ha)

The one used in the EightOS preview is called "The Lake" by "the fishy one" on deviantart which is what inspired me to make a few of my own.

Yeah still waiting for widget and iconoclasm support.

**Nicholas Knight** · 04-08-2010, 12:10 PM

yeah if you have a widget it wont rotate haha just figured that out :P

also i think I might have a way for the icons to work with landscape and portrait

You might want to take a look at springwidgets. Has widgets for landscape and portrait: http://modmyi.com/forums/new-skins-t...ts-iphone.html

Haha I'm liking the spring widgets are you able to separate them to be shown on different pages?

**Entombed Sh4dw** · 04-08-2010, 09:37 PM

At the moment Nick and I are abandoning SBrotator, the layouts just wont line up correctly so for now there will be 2 seperate versions, landscape and portrait.

that's alright

i like portrait better anyways since it's more convenient to use since most of my apps run in portrait

+1^^^

I thought you were going to have some trouble with rotator. All good. Maybe in the future the tweek will support your idea. Still looking forward to seeing the progress!

Its one of the main topics on the Rainmeter forums in the themes area. I was only their briefly. I actually first stumbled across it on Deviant Art.
