[Android Themes] nicholaschum:
Hey all, so...v128 release...and...

Recently, I had many personal life issues and have dedicated more time there. I would just like to verify that I will continuously support the theme, as long as you guys be patient on me.

As many of you know, I don't advertise the theme at all with fancy banners or gifs, as well as never resharing my update posts all over the place to get new reaches. All I usually do is keep to the community, post a screenshot on the update and let the update speak for itself.

I made this theme series because I needed ONE theme I felt which fit exactly what I wanted on my perfect phone, and I never joined the scene for any sort of economic profit. I want complete control, I want everything perfect (or as close to perfect), and I want resolution to unthemed things that don't even relate to me remotely (like theming apps I don't even use on my DD). Many people know how anal I am on my code and files, as well as commit history using Git.

I'm not selling a design here, there are many other themes out there with funky designs and what not, and I would like to mention that my users support me not only because of supporting what I do, but because how I treat my work, from visuals to back-end coding.

I've went through a lot in this past year, through all the accusations and bashers, to the thousands of Hangouts I've gotten because of the guides I have written. Within the year, I made enemies, and the enemies became friends after a while. These were all life experiences ever since I revived my XDA account and started theming again, and I am very grateful to everyone.

I'd also like to thank all my contributors (even though I was quite pissy the past few weeks so I revoked ALL access to my private repo, and sent upset messages to certain people), please look at the bottom of this post for my reconciliation.

So after reading all my bull**** paragraphs as usual. I want to mention I will be giving away 20 promo codes for akzent and 10 promo codes for BO!D (there's a possibility here in BO!D for an Arcus update) for Dark Material's 1 year anniversary, and nearly 1 million total downloads for the Dark Material series. All you gotta do is +1 (as usual), reshare and comment this post: https://plus.google.com/u/1/+NicholasChumCDT/posts/fJ3YA7aV6P6. I will be using an RNG tool to pick the users, and multiple comments won't increase your chance (so pray to the RNGesus - to all my gamer users!)

PREVIOUS CONTRIBUTORS: Due to rebasing the theme and cleaning up the people who can push directly into my repo, if you are still interested to contribute to Dark Material (again), please message me again and hopefully we could talk about it.

Finally, I would like to mention why I am doing this giveaway. Although I am happy that we're so close to 1 million downloads for the series, as well as one year anniversary, I need to find myself again. I have been lost for a while. Although I love what I am doing, I want to show myself that I have greater potential within myself, and I want to show a specific someone that even though I haven't ever changed in my life for the better, this time, I truly believe that I will be a better person over time. I love all my users, I love my supporters, I love my testers. I won't quit theming, don't you worry, the team has been very supportive on my decisions and theming is my stress relief.

I have poured my heart and tears into the theme, and I hope you all are enjoying what I'm doing, because they contain experiences and memories of which I will never forget. Although you might not understand how I poured these things into the theme; every drawable and every line of code has an emotional attachment to me I hope will never go away. ﻿
