Kieboy's interviewFirst of all, I wanna say thanks again for those who voted for my work, and congratulations to the other winners.
Second, I'm sorry for double voting which cancelled my vote which i think is very important also...(it might have changed last weeks winning themes) and sorry for the delay in creating this week's topic. But I know you guys can create a theme in just 2 hrs or less so no worries hehehe.
Lastly, lets begin another exciting week.Ü Our next topic is
"CHOCOLATE BRANDS" I guess you dont see much of these types right? So we will flood our collection with these.
Restrictions:
1. Old themes submitted
CANT BE USED again as an entry. Simple right?
Now go forth, and create those themes...good luck to all and thanks again.
------------------------------------------
New themers are very welcome to participate. Enjoy!

Very interesting theme. I didn't see that coming. Anyways, enjoy themeing guys. Beware of the "ANTS" though. Can't wait to see your themes.

Ok, since I might not have the time to create a good theme for this topic, I'll submit this as my entry for this comp. So for starters, here it is:

Ooh lots of chocolate without the guilt, I remember doing a search a while back but there isnt much about in images, poor quality pics not nice
As Easter is coming, can we do branded eggs?
Patrick
Mar 22 2004, 05:12 AM
@Vlamm: the way I would do that:
i) using channel, use the Polygonal Tool and Rounded Rectangle to get that shape
ii) load the Alpha as selection
iii) duplicate 1 copy from the wallpaper, another copy from the inverse of it
iv) inner shaddow the first, beval the other
of course, there's plenty of ways to achieve the same result.

Cool theme Kieboy!, I will be busy these days so I guess I'll upload mine now. I'll try if I can do some more, btw is it okay to post 2 or more themes as an entry?
I'll be working! working! working!, lots of work

and I hate it, it keeps me away from you guys. I am starting to love this site

, actually, I love this site already!!
Well, here it is. I called this "m&m meets Sony Ericsson". ENJOY!!

@xleon: are you spawn's apprentice? It looks very much like spawn's work.
One suggestion though: make the softkey "centered". As you can see, the square joystick is positioned more to the left.
xleon
Mar 22 2004, 05:35 AM

Really, well I don't even know Spawn, but I voted for him last time (I think?). Well, if you see it that way, hmm... I am very honored. I never noticed it until you saw it, thanks., I'll fix it a.s.a.p.

Mar 22 2004, 06:00 AM
BTW how do I update my themes, how can I overwrite it? Should I just upload it? Thanks!!

Mar 22 2004, 06:06 AM
@xleon: just re-edit your post where you attached your preview earlier.

Mar 22 2004, 06:51 AM
hmm. just woke up and it's chocolate on the menu, yum!

@xleon i think u are allowed to submit one theme for the comp, but you can change it often as you like

Hi all,
Think I will have a go this week to get some practice in.
This will only be my 5th ever theme so bear with me -> I know its nowhere near the usual high calibre of output from the regulars here!
I still need to work on the highlight bars, unhighlighted text colour and status buttons (er, everything...

) but I'm thinking along the following lines, drawn from the infamous adverts from said chocolate bar.

** PS. Edited to update theme image. Still work in progress though...

oohh nice simon

how do you eat yours?

@yellow ok so far...after you've worked on the highlight bars, unhighlighted text colour and status buttons, you could sgarpen the image a bit, looks a bit fuzzy, and try to make it more simple, the text and the chocolate bar in the menu seem to confuse my eyes, as to what i'm looking at

Maybe i'll make a T610 theme this time, they are so much easier.

Heres mine, based on my old work place Bogø Chocolade, the best chocolate in the world I tell you - Nice and simple theme

I think Jef needs to buy the more pm storage item

, my storeage used to be close to full, i've only had it full once, but then expert put it back up again and it stays around 45% as i delete the new PM's i've got. If you're saving different PM's put them into one PM e.g compose a new PM and organise them into it and send it to your self, delete the others then you'll only have one instead of lots but with the same content

Hope this helps

theme legowyn. I like the desktop border :D
One question though, is the Nestle logo on the menu highlight meant to be upside down?
vinnieza
Mar 22 2004, 09:56 AM
Nice theme legowyn

, sharp looking simon, i wouldn't have noticed that if you didn't point it out
simon211175
Mar 22 2004, 09:57 AM
thanks Vin - I'm guessing it was a mistake cos the whole bar looks upside down, if you check the shadowing.
Legowyn
Mar 22 2004, 09:59 AM
Yes, the Nestle logo on the menu highlight is upside down

I hope change it before the challenge end

But a prelimenary theme will do for now:
