I'll make an alternative version with a white border, and it'll be included in the next update (weekend or mid-next week). Also, thanks for the feedback!
Yep, have been since the end of August really. I'm hoping the jailbreak will be ready by the end of 2013, and that I can release the theme as soon as possible after then.
That is, of course, if the jailbreak ever gets done. And if WinterBoard is updated to work with it.
Why'd you shrink the bubble inside the Messages icon? Now it looks smaller than the rest of the stock icons.
Otherwise, I think you're doing a great job!

Also, you'll get used to it very quickly. The bubble in the old icon will start to look over-sized after using the theme for a while.
Well, now you have to shrink the App Store, iTunes, Contacts, Clock, Photos, Settings, Voice Memos because the insides of those are too big according to your "over-sized" logic.
Make it one way or the other. Shrink them all or leave them all oversized.
I resized the bubble because it didn't fit the Grid System (look at the picture above), and so in order to fit it I made it smaller. Yes, there are other ways to align it to the grid, but seeing as I thought the bubble looked over-sized in the first place I decided smaller would be better. Like I've said, these icons aren't done yet, so I can still change them. In fact I was recently considering changing messages, so don't consider this the final icon.
The other icons you mentioned that are 'oversized' are different in that there are gaps and spaces in the image to let the background colour through. Messages' bubble is just one solid white mass, whereas in Photos (for example) there is space in the middle and separation lines between the pills to allow the white backdrop to pass through.
It looks like if you voted in the previous poll you can't vote in the new poll. I've asked to get it fixed, but for now if you can't vote just give your opinion in the comments.
If you can vote then don't worry; this doesn't affect you.

Thanks! If you want a specific app icon flattened then just post it in the comments and I'll get round to doing it (no games or iPad-only apps).
I've finally gotten round to doing Netflix for you, so expect that in the update next week. Sorry that took so long! Also I'll redo Tumblr sometime this week to fit with their new slimmer 't' logo.
Everything looks pretty much fine, but I think soundcloud and YouTube need cleaning up, they look abit rough
Yea YouTube does need sorting out. I'll get round to doing that when I get home in a few weeks. SoundCloud was taken directly from the app itself (from the button in the top left) with no resizing or anything, and to me the icon looks fine... Am I missing something?

Thanks, I can't wait to release it!
It looks like a newspaper to me. I'd like to see what you think an American flag looks like.
