Just wondering if anyone has stumbled across a Super Mario Bros theme? Just popped into my head this morning that it'd be an epic win to have a Mario theme for Kings roms. :D

I looked and all I could find was something for live home. I've never used this app before, and really don't want to quit using LP. Any ideas?:thinking:

Edit: I have actually created a pseudo Mario theme. If you scrool down to post #50 there's instructions on how to accomplish what I did. Also read through the thread, there's good info throughout, plus a few screenshots. Enjoy and Happy Pseudo themeing!

With LP its not hard to theme it yourself, you can just download the images and when you place the app on your homescreen it will show you a picture of what it will look like on your screen, click the icon picture and it will give you an option to change it. If you want to change the notification bar and widgets you will have to modify the frame work.

Sorry urge I'm just being lazy, I am not running lp atm but I'm going to soon. Any how, have you changed the widget color from the drab gray? I assume I'll need to edit an xml...which xml is it bud?

Oh man. there is an awesome theme for super mario in handcent.
If you dont use handcent for texts yet, i suggest you start. It comes looking rather plain, but its very customizable. And there is a theme you can download that is super mario. Its really awesome. I have it saved, but i dont have time to load it up and screen shot it for you.
Basically its in the theme section of handcent, if you arent familiar with handcent, download it and i can walk you through getting it on there.

The theme has a cool mario wallpaper a lot like yours as the background of the conversation list and the actual conversation. i think youll like it.

Yeah I digg it! Where did ya get the icons and paper? They are lp?

I got the paper and the LP icons from a post over at xda, I think. The icons were made for LP, but I used folder organizer to change the home screen icons as well. Google mario icons, I found a few, but not as many :)as I assumed were out there. Let me know if you want em, I'll email to you.

Now I have a good excuse to try out handcent! Thanks for the heads up. Also I forgot to mention, all of my notification sounds are themed too. And I found a sweet ringtone! :D

Dude u just gave me my next.venture... I had know.idea u could customize to that extent.. did u download that thrall or make it your self.... lol I'm lovin it

I created that with custom icons in LP dock, then I used the other icons outside the LP dock with folder organizer. I'll see if I can find a video to show you how to use folder organizer, it's much easier. Last but not least, a mario wallpaper.
Once I had all of the media it didn't take that long to set up. Hardest part was finding the icons! :eek:
