Ok, Im keeping it simple however I dunno what happened but clearly the "girly" side of me came out with this pink overload. LOL. Dont flame me too bad :D





WidgetLocker: wallpaper and slider theme my own creation however the slider dock itself was originally created by johnny_quest over at XDA. I just recolorized it and made it into a WL theme. Got the SMSUnread icons from DA. They were user icons that I liked lol.

Homescreen: Inspiration and dock APP icon made my johnny_quest, text and decorations are my own little addition, Analog clock by mjdev modded by me. MinimalisticText for battery status.

You are amazing, even your pink themes look radiant and colourful.
Hope its OK as a guy for me to think this looks awesome :)

PS I may have finally cracked the minimalist thing :)
But right at the end to avert a nervous breakdown, I added my Simi folders.
Release out later today :D

Thanx sweets! And theres nothing wrong with a guy who can appreciate pastels lol. And this theme looks AMAZING! I love it! You did a good job at keeping it minimal. Minimalist is ok. I usually dont have that many things that I need to get into that quickly which is why i dont have much on my page lol. I actually love your style better. I called it chaotic clutter lol. I wish I cud be inspired to be as detailed as you are in your themes. Just doesnt come out that way. See, if I do it, it looks like a 3 yr exploded the rainbow and my screen was the fallout. You do it and it looks like a masterpiece and Im sitting there with my mouth open like "how the hell did he do that?!!" LOL.

Ooooooh and I see MORTAL KOMBAT!!! Woo hoo! 3 kudo points for you!!

Everything is already in my dropbox. (In my siggy) If u want the clock, let me know which version. The original doesnt have a dropshadow and the hands are blue. The dock is already in the dropbox, the icons are a part of the dock. The wallpapers are in the DB too. Oh and just so youre aware, the heart isnt part of the clock. The clock is just a transparent background with the roman numerals. I just layered it over the heart.

Can u post links where u got all this? I love the clock, dock, and the icons!

@mykela, you should have been a stand up comedian. You are hilarious.
How did you know I enjoy pastels :D
Yep, I have bee accused of clutter, but the way you described it sounds better lol.

This theme looks fantastic (colour wise) on my HD2.
Funnily the ackground wall is a pic of a bear in a living room taht I applied motion blur to, since I didn't want to spend ages finding a suitable background :D

This minimal mumbo jumbo is starting to get in my blood.
Unfortunately I have now donew my homework on Fonts with Minimal Text and it does make the world of difference.

And of course the MK characters are for you!
btw, your transparency recommendation for the widgets has really provided the missing link I have been after, esp for Calendar and Twitter.
You're the babe, no doubt about that! :)

Thank you for the dock NiteOwl........
Again, absolute pleasure.
I think it worked out great with your masterpiece.
Do you know the intricate parts of a Ferrari today are all machine built?
Check it out on the latest Top Gear, it's called Italian Job.
I got excited because I thoughtthe episode was on the Mini Countryman and maybe Mini's entry into WRC!

Top Gear is a must for viewing, thankfully we got BBC America about a year ago and have been hooked on that show ever since....the lady is hooked on Ramsay and his kitchen antics LOL!!

Ok, time for a screenshot. Been busy trying to learn a few more functions on GIMP. So my goal on these shots were to incorporate everything I have learned so far.
That would include importing fonts to Gimp, hence the use of the HArry Potter font. Making the polaroid pic frames and placing an image in them, filling text with an image ("EMMA"). Placing the polaroid icons on the wallpaper and then using a transparent icon over them.
No prize winner here but maybe something i did will help someone else in some way.
