My first theme - needs help

[ElectricdreamS]

Hi everyone

I had earlier downloaded the perfect storm theme for my iphone4 not sure who made it as its available on multiple websites without any owner/creator mention

After upgrading my 9700 to the leaked os 6, i decided to edit the perfect storm theme with the new bb os 6 icons, I totally redid every icon, heres a screen shot of what i have done so far



Where i need help is the calender icon, how to fix it so that the system date and day show up in the right place, they have climbed too high, really appreciate if someone can help me out with this, i plan to add more icons and put the them up for free share later

bb pin is 2323C998 if help can arrive quick

Regards

leaked os 6? WTF are you talking about?

You have a few options, both of which rely on using the info.plist file in the main folder of your theme. You can either: 1. set CalendarIconDateStyle = color:invisible
2. Change the position. You would still use CalendarIconDateStyle but it's parameters would be it's new position in pixels. I'll edit this post with how to do it, and a screen shot, but I'm at school right now so I can't. Hope I've helped!

This looks fantastic btw!

thanks for your help, i have done very little progress, all i could find out was that i need to make an info.plist file which will go into my theme, i know in this file the code has something to do with <key>CalendarIconDateStyle</key> and <key>CalendarIconDayStyle</key>
but am nill with this, i dont want the date and time to be invisible, can you do the pixel placement thingie for me or atleast make me a template so i can play with it, i have no clue what would go into that and how the parameters will be set, am pretty cool with illustrations but zero on te developement side

btw i did make few changes in the theme but really looking forward to sorting this out and make atleast 32 more icons and share it with folks

<key>CalendarIconDateStyle</key>
<string>width:59px;height:59px;top:-0px;text-align:center;</string>
<key>CalendarIconDayStyle</key>
<string>position:absolute;margin-top:31px;width:55px;color: #000;padding: 10px 0 0 ;text-align:center;text-shadow: 0px 0px 0px rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.7);</string>

this is about what youre looking at. Paste that in there and show me what you get, then I'll be able to look at it and tell you where to go from there, if not you could send me the theme and I could adjust it for you

[remz08]

It looks great, i do have to ask if you're making this on an iPhone 4 or not though?

[bryberg]

Looks good.

In my first reply I honestly had no idea of what you meant by "leaked os 6". After googling it, I now know what you are going for.

Let me know if you need any help making icons.

i just love the bb os6 icons for some reason, they put up great personality with a dark wallpaper, hences i jumped into theming, i have moved on from that first image on top, my icons are now hd ready, doing another set of 16 icons plus looking at doing bit of UI as well, slowly learning and working on it

i am ok with icons, help me with how i can put a dital clock where it says ElectricdreamS
