Thank you!!!
I made it. I originally made it as a stage for MUGEN and figured since I have all the separate elements I can port it over to my new obsession...my Android.
It's not exactly right yet. I still have a couple little things to add and couple of little things to adjust and clean. When it's done I'll have it ready for download.

For you it'll be free...for everybody else FIFTEEN DOLLAR!!!

Also, if anybody knows of a way I can make the TARDIS doors (the blue picture on top) act as unlock sliders, so it looks like the doors are opening, please let me know.

I've been searching for a good Doctor Who scene, wallpaper and skin for my phone. Was able to find plenty of ringtones. This one is BY FAR the best one I've seen. Just registered here today to tell you that.

Right, long me lurker on this forum but here we go:

Main screen:

screen1tj.png


The picture at the top serves as a shortcut to a direct text to my wife and changes on receipt of a text (via a combination of Zoom widget designer and Tasker) shown below:

screen1txt.png


Screen to the right holds all the other apps that I use on a regular basis as well as an extended controls widget:

screen2cp.png


(under the black blob is my wifes name which when tapped shows her contact numbers work, mobile etc.. Parents is the same for my folks and Grandparents)

Screen tot he left I'm not completely happy with yet but serves it's purpose:

screen3kl.png


My other 5 screens hold things like a todo list and calculator widget so they're not really worth posting!

Havent change my homescreen yet to match the lockscreen but this is what I have at the moment.


Love the analog clock-weather-digital clock combination! I just love how it pops out of the screen :)
Could you give some more info how you archieved that look? Did you use the pay version of custom clock widget or the free one?

Oh, and this cute icon that looks like a pouting creature with shoes, would you mind sharing it? so cute! :)

Wow, thanks. I'm doing tons of research and technical work-arounds to make this the best possible theme.

Thank u sweetie! Im using the pro version however u can achieve it with the free version as well. Settings of the clock is just no edge, no glass and the 3rd shadow image (first is blank, 2nd is almost the same back shadow but its a little smaller), I did make my ticks more transparent, which Im almost positive u can do on the free version as well. I uploaded the app icon to my dropbox. Its under Icons > Misc. If u want the actual dock, thats already uploaded to my dropbox :) Oh, and I LOVE your setup as well. Very peaceful and serene looking. I caught myself just sitting there staring at it like, "oooooh, that so niceeeee" lol

So jealous of your themed Player Pro.
I would need ADW Ex am I right? (and a bit of your talent :) )
Beautiful screen again.

What?!! Something u cant do? Say it isnt so!! Lol. And actually no, I use LauncherPro for my homescreen. Tried ADW, it lagged a bit for me or maybe I was just already partial to LP but I prefer it to ADW.

As far as the music player, each case is slightly different and fits different size widgets. The one Im using is for the 2x2 widget. You do have PlayerPro right? Bc these cases are set to fit PP only that Im aware of. Put the case on your screen first (using sms unread (yea, I know that sounds weird) but the case image is just a png file in my sms unread folder. I chose the dialer function since its rare that I will have a missed call lingering on the screen. Then put a 2x2 PP widget on the screen and size it so that u see the controls at the bottom and the track title at the top. Line the case (in its smallest 1x1 size) right next to the PP widget then resize the case to overlap the PP widget. DO NOT cover the track title at the top or the controls at the bottom. It only needs to cover the album art.

Ok, finally got my screens the way I want them for a bit. Yea, Im feeling the Asian inspiration today lol. Changed the lockescreen sms unread text icon.

Mainscreen - made the dock myself (icons are a part of it) original icons I got off the web but I completely changed and edited them to my liking (color and adding the lotus little sprig thingys and butterflies lol) Usual culprits: SMS Unread, WL, LPP, MinimalisticText, Custom Clock Widget. In case anyone wants them, the dock and icons are already uploaded to the dropbox :) @Niteowl: Still got my music player, its just on the 2nd page lol

Definitely will try on the weekend.
I thought you needed ADW to overlap widgets etc.
Expect a PM if I don't come right :D
mykela, can you send me the case.png file please

Ofcourse. Which one do u need? I have 5 different ones. Actually, I just uploaded all of them to my dropbox. Theyre in Icons > Misc....the one Im using is case 7. Feel free to PM if u run into a snag. I'll be off and on all weekend but PMs email me direct so I usually see it right away. U can overlap with ADW and LPP. I use a 10x10 grid on LPP
