OK, folks!
Seems like k0nane's got something epic coming up, or should I be saying sheepishly electrifying ;)
Therefore, I figure it might be great to stoke the fire under his feet so we can get it asap, LOL!

So, what better way to do this than to mess with Basix a little bit, right?
Therefore, I am providing here a small theme update for basix to fix primarily the Blue on blue Touchwiz shortcut icons, and give everything a more blue attitude.... I've grown blue from waiting k0! :D

It's just a theme, folks, so don't expect much.
And i've kept it as light as possible: it won't even change your background!

What it will change will be:
The popup and scroll list colors to blue (as mentioned above)
The Touchwiz quick toggle bar (as mentioned above)
The status bar icons (from Exodus - animated icons)
The download bar to blue (for a more elegant feel)
The seek bars (such as volume) to blue (to make everything fit together)
The Boot Up animation (Think outside the box!)
The default font to Ubuntu (for your eyes' pleasure ;))
and finally, the battery icon (a nice incremental 3d circle)
...

That should be all folks!

Please do let me know what you think about it, and hopefully that gives k0nane a little boost to get done with his work!

To apply:
Make sure you have CWM and Basix already on your phone.
Download blutiful.zip to your SDcard
reboot into recovery, and install the theme like you would a ROM.
(select zip from sdcard, and browse to blutiful.zip)

Download file from here: Blutiful-new.zip


Oh, and before someone does something crazy:
DO NOT wipe dalvik-cache or data. Leave them alone.
This is NOT a ROM update. Just a theme. don't delete anything.
 
If you're hesitating to take the plunge, here's a look see.
Of course, if you're just curious, you can take a look too ;)

Alright. Boot animation is fixed.

Sorry, k0nane. It appears I can't get it to work by placing it in /system/media. However, as soon as I place it in /data/local, it's all smooth sailing... :/


For everyone else, expect the next update to possibly include animated 4g icons that fit the 1x and 3G ones for consistency.
As always, feedback is appreciated, and so is clicking the "Thanks" button :D
