M4riNa D4rK Theme 1.0-9 and Iconset 1.0-6 are available in extras-devel as of now.



A load of new icons and fixes, please post any issues on this thread!

Changelogs:

http://maemo.org/packages/view/m4rina-d4rk-icons/

http://maemo.org/packages/view/m4rina-d4rk-theme/

Also note that for everything to work visually it's best to use the theme customizer and set the font to Tahoma. The hex of the blue I use is 1952FF.

Many many thanks to wazd for the original Marina Theme, D-iivil for his constant help at every stage (pretty much since I joined the community!) Mankir for the calendars and all the originators of the original pre-modded icons, including Biggzy for his systeminfowidget and the original bookmark applet from which I based mine. Icons not made by myself are generally from the usual sources like DeviantART, iconsite myway and iconarchive.

Any requests for other icons please just ask!


Dany-69's Pixmaps and Widget Script


Thanks to Dany-69 we now have a way of installing ALL widget and pixmap images via the 'Extra D4rK' Icon which will appear in your main menu on reboot after the 1.0-6 Icon Theme update.

Thank you so, so much Dany, sorry for the hassle and thanks for not pushing through the injunction

Grazie fratello!!!!

I've tested it as much as possible, however over to you guys, as ever any issues please let me know and they'll be resolved asap.

Other Bits

Desktop Clock Widget and Calendar Home Widget are mandatory for 'the look', the clock theme files are in the 'Random Bits' folder attached.


Custom Hildon-Desktop


One of the easiest ways of making your N900 seem like a new device is to use a custom hildon-desktop. I've attached my preferred hildon-desktop, courtesy of a collaboration between MohammadAG, Matan and thp which includes: Faster kinetic scrolling throughout the OS, a custom transition.ini from MohammadAG, modified task switcher, the ability to have up to 9 desktops and a host of other patches and fixes.

To install copy to your N900 (or MyDocs, or /home/user/MyDocs, they're all the same thing- the first folder you see when you connect your N900 to your PC in mass storage mode). Then enter the following (bold bit only!) in x-term:

Code:
sudo gainroot (enter)
cd MyDocs(enter)
dpkg -i hildon-desktop_double_2.2.138-1+0m5_armel.deb (enter)
To make it even easier once you've typed as far as:

dpkg -i hildon-desk press the 'tab' button on the screen in terminal and the name will autocomplete.


Additional Thanks


Also a HUUUUGE Thank you to everyone in this incredible community simply for doing what you do, not limited to but including Nicolai, Matan, Titan, MohammadAG, Jacekowski, No!No!No!Yes!, Biggzy, Leetut, Qosmio, Dany-69, Hopbeat, juhar, and everyone from the Screenshot and Mods threads.

Kind Regards,
D4rKlar
