Mod Note: This thread is a continuation from here
Here's what I've been working on this weekend: Sol (left) and Cracker (right).
Sol was the easiest to put together - I only had to make a few of the icons myself (that's my son in the Photos icon!) because I basically just pieced together icons from lots of different themes (particularly Agua). I made Sol's dock from scratch, as I couldn't really find anything else I liked. I wanted something sleek and unobtrusive - I think it turned out OK. I also made the wallpaper myself, starting with another WP and adding lots of effects (plus the 3D menu bar). Overall, I'm fairly pleased with the way the theme turned out.
Cracker ('officially' known as Simple White) was a little more difficult because it's a newer theme, which means less pre-made third-party app icons available. For Cracker I had to make the Mines, 15, Battery, Finder, Terminal, BallFight and Othello icons myself. But I'm fairly pleased with the way they turned out! I inverted a very subtle black WP I had, which I think looks pretty sweet and I even edited my IpodStarRatings files to make my rating stars stand out on against the white (I wish I could take a screenshot of that, they look sweet now!) ...
Anyway, I think Cracker looks pretty cool - I think that's what I'll be using for a while. Just needs a better (ie more recognizable) weDict icon ...
