Re: Request- Fallout Theme
 

+1, the N900 is like a small Pip-Boy...
I'd love a Fallout theme too.

Re: Request- Fallout Theme
 

I remember a Fallout skin/theme coming out windows mobile which was then removed due to a legal request from the makers bethesda

Re: Request- Fallout Theme
 

a fallout theme would be cool

Re: Request- Fallout Theme
 

never played fallout but if you will post me some images of what your wanting I'll add it of my list of themes to make.

Re: Request- Fallout Theme
 

Sorry for offtopic:
Andrew, would you showed screenshots of the other themes that you've done as buildon-theme, buff-theme, please.
Thanks in advance!

Re: Request- Fallout Theme
 

I'll do a blog post and Thread on them tonight.

Re: Request- Fallout Theme
 

Awsome idea! Just thinking of having my N900 looking like an pipboy, so cool. :)

Re: Request- Fallout Theme
 

Ok, so I've got the PipBoy 3000 in perfect 4-Squared blank wallpapers. Will post them shortly if its allowed.

I need to blank out some of the text entry so the screen looks blank.

there is one screen like the health status screen there just for novelty.

What I want to know is can I make

a)the shortcuts on the homescreens be "perk" images from the game.
b) have the menu buttons and entry menus in that glowy electric look
c) if its possible to add a "static" transition
d) if I can make the menu icons pipboy perks too on my xp computer

Re: Request- Fallout Theme
 

How about the contour-nerv theme from extras-devel, but in green?

Re: Request- Fallout Theme
 

ill be working on changing the menu icons for perk or bobble head icons over the next few days, and music player widget, web widget ect could be changed to look like the pipboy, ive got a few fallout boot videos too

war..... war never changes......

Re: Request- Fallout Theme
 

If your wanting to do a proper theme don't just edit the png files in default theme folder. You need to get a copy of the template. I'm willing to help you guys if you will send me some images to work with.

Re: Request- Fallout Theme
 

ill send you what make andrew, but i do edit my default themes and menu icons cos i love doing it!
ill leave the 'real theme' building to you bro
this looks cool:

Re: Request- Fallout Theme
 

Looks like game designers have shutdown the BlackBerry and Windows Mobile Version of this theme. Looks easy enough if you want to send me any work you have this weekend I'll work on this theme. I'll even push it ahead of my Star Trek one I'm working on. If anyone wants to work on icons for me let me know

Re: Request- Fallout Theme
 

some screenshots of the icons, in a random order, ill fix that later:

Re: Request- Fallout Theme
 

Really nice Lee

Re: Request- Fallout Theme
 

wow.. that is quite awesome even in its infancy..


I myself am having trouble finding my blank PipBoy Frame pics.... I may just have to post the screens unphotoshopped....

Re: Request- Fallout Theme
 

never played the game but I thought pipboy was basically greens and blacks

Re: Request- Fallout Theme
 

You're right. The pipboy look is identical to the old monochrome green monitors. If you've ever seen one of those, you've seen were Bethesda was going with the pipboy.

Re: Request- Fallout Theme
 

Seriously, try the contour-nerv from devel, if the general look is suitable, I'll do a green version with the scanlines included and perhaps the icons too if you want me to use them.

Re: Request- Fallout Theme
 

had a play around with the web and contacts windows, not looking as good as id hoped yet, maybe if we can adjust the web and contact window size and screen position to fit the small pipboys:

Re: Request- Fallout Theme
 

By the way, I am officially working on a Pip-Boy 3000 theme, just to let you all know.

Re: Request- Fallout Theme
 

lol I started working on one also since I got bored with my current project. Well no reason there can't be two. It would be cool to see how our projects differ once we are done.

Re: Request- Fallout Theme
 

Perhaps we can even do a collab if the projects compliment each other?

Re: Request- Fallout Theme
 

Sounds good to me.

Re: Request- Fallout Theme
 

changed the app shortcut applet here

Re: Request- Fallout Theme
 

I know this post won't win me a popularity contest, but the whole idea of a Fallout3 theme is to have the N900 look like a pipboy.

While I truly appreciate the effort Leetut, I think this is where you're going about it the wrong way. Don't try to put a pipboy border around every icon, and don't reuse Fallout3 icons for app icons. The end result is campy, and doesn't really capture the Fallout 3 mood.

The blackberry theme you linked is as close to perfect as it'll get. If you can replicate that, or something close to it, that would be great. :)

Edit: Leetut, that last screenshot shows a lot more potential. Now if you'd give the icons that green monochrome look it would work much better. :D

Re: Request- Fallout Theme
 

well said bro!
but i know nothing about theme making!
im just posting random stuff here to give andrew and joppu some heads up on what fallout is about, im hoping they go the blackberry style route too

Re: Request- Fallout Theme
 

A few screenshots to show you my basic idea got a few color tweaks to make and also get to finish skinning the rest of theme. Also I havn't added icons to theme yet but here is my idea for icons.

Re: Request- Fallout Theme
 

I'm building my theme right now, should be up in -devel pretty soon

Re: Request- Fallout Theme
 

got a screenshot, look anything link mine?

Re: Request- Fallout Theme
 

looks real nice

Re: Request- Fallout Theme
 

A little thing that would be extremely useful would be if you could run your own application on the desktop, that way you could actually paint a pip-boy over your current background and have application shortcuts, widgets, etc. under the different tabs on the pip-boy.

Re: Request- Fallout Theme
 

next update will allow html backgrounds so that would be doable

Re: Request- Fallout Theme
 

Oh wow, I remember reading about apps not being able to draw on top of the desktop background, but if it's html then it shouldn't be too hard.. I assume it supports CSS too? :p

Re: Request- Fallout Theme
 

Seriously? Any source for this?

Re: Request- Fallout Theme
 

I don't know if it is a published feature anywhere but I was told by a member of the Maemo UI team suppoet for html backgrounds should be in next release. I was told that most of the needed things are aleady in place. I was also told that you would not be able to include them in the theme package until a later version though. It would be easy to have a seporae package for them.
