Making myself work on my birthday, geez...Who do I think I am, acting like such a slave-driver?!?
SystemUI is nearly complete, just gotta theme/make the quickpanel buttons and signal status and bars (2g, 3g, roaming, etc). According to KDiff (a file comparison program), that's 168 files left to add, but I'm pretty sure I can just copy over a good chunk of them from the previous rev of the theme, plus it's still a relatively small number when compared to the 200-ish I created just for the battery alone.
Everything else has been edited or copied over, as need be (no point in re-inventing the wheel, right?
), including xmls and all the other necessary files. From the sound of the posts above, the option 2 battery was the most preferred choice, so I went ahead and made a complete set of it. I think the charging icons were the most time consuming, mostly because of the bass-ackwards way the latest flavor of GIMP wants you to save photos, but also because I had a little bit of a hard time drawing a lightning bolt the way I wanted. However, it was well worth the effort, in my opinion
:
Hard to believe I'm just a stone's throw away from completing the SystemUI, but the framework-res is the scary one, since it has waaaay more files. Hopefully though, most of those will just be a matter of copying and pasting, or editing just one or two small things, if any editing needs to be done at all.
Also, I think I'm going to go with version 3.0 instead of 2.4, because with all the manual editing, the one or two extras I'll be adding, and the compatibility with other ROMs as well as MegaTron, this is more of a major overhaul than just a patch upgrade.
Anyhow, I'm gonna stop myself there before I babble on any further and make a book out of what was only supposed to be a page.
Plus with me sitting at about the 24-hr mark on how long I've been up, it won't take long before my sentences start making less sense (if they're not there already
).
