RC ProAm had me glued for hrs. Same with Ivan Stewart's Super Off Road. So much fun! Jackal was pretty damn fun too

Anyway, I cant wait to use the triforce unlock screen. Cant guarantee ill use the iconpack. I hope you make a duck hunt LWP if not on the boot anime. Keep up the great work!

Other ideas:

-Castlevania fire whip volume

-Kung fu high kick icon

The real crowd is here who played and loved NES hence the ideas and recommendations. The trendy folks will eventually come (youngstas who grew up on xbox, ps3).
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] harpocrates:
This theme its for old school video gamers :p

It works better with nes icons than with xbox and ps3...

I play xbox and ps3...i just can't see any perfect fits for icons like those old classics...i mean the triforce unlock..the metroid spinning ball for sync, the 1942 airplane for flight mode...these feel prefect...i just don't see prefect fits with todays games :p...maybe I'm just old :p...although I just thought of one..zen pinball for sync...maybe when I'm done with 8bit version ;)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] harpocrates:
The zip has the basic system icons used in trigger 1.5...each rom has its own system icons but they are very similar...these are the icons I'm replacing one by one with custom made 8bit versions...

So if you open the file you will see for example what system icons are used for sync...i replaced them all with the metroid ball...so now when it syncs..sammy shows up spinning..you will see 3icons related to flight mode...those now have the 1942 airplane...the battery charge animation no longer is a battery with I little lightning in it...now its mario getting larger from mushroom...etc...i don't think I'll replace all 1000..but thats where you guys come in...you look at those icons and if you think of some game icon that would match...you let me know and I make it...for example I took the triforce unlock recommendation and replaced all puzzle unlock ones with a custom triforce and link icon I made...next I'll do the slide unlock with the excite bike idea...anything you guys say..if I think it works..i try and implement it...three hardest partis coming up with ideas...i could spend a couple of hours at a time looking at those icons in the zip trying to think of what fame would fit...

Like the rc pro am...loved that game...but what do I use from it and for what icon...?? Or castlevania...or several other great games...what to use from them and where...thats why I posted these..the game ideas are great...but then figuring out which part of the game to use and for what specific icon....just keep thinking up ideas...

When its done it will be incorporated in aflashable zip file...ialso have shutdown and boot animations I'm working on...already have finalized ideas for those..(ideas...the actual animations are half done..:p).but after theme is done I'll make a few more...so people can alternate those with a simple flash..

So check zip out...and if any game just feld right for any icon..just post it here.. :)

Thanx for ideas guys..keep them coming..only 900 icons left
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] harpocrates:
Ill see what I can do for volume icon cause as jdan posted that may need some xml editing and I don't want to go there...yet...first replace all icons in zip...although that is agood one..also the zelda hearts for volume..but those aren't in the zip to replace

Kung fu high kick icon is also a classic...but where to use it...

I am going to make duck hunt boot animation cause that one is awesome (as an extra cause right pong is the basic one ive decided on) but I'll look into live wallpapers..i haven't looked into those at all(so don't know yet how they are made...but sure I can find out)...but it would also be cool there
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] suchavibrantthang:
you're right, it'll be hard to incorporate some of these ideas to actual detail. i'll see what i can find for you.

[Vibrant Themes and Apps] jdanisevich:
I suddenly awoke from a deep sleep because I knew something was wrong. Raymond, you're playin' right? NES = Nintendo Entertainment System. Slap a "S" on the beginning for Super Nintendo Entertainment System. Nintendo's first two major consoles outside Japan. Japan's sister consoles were called the Famicom and Super Famicom. :)

Lyin' won't do me any good. I gave up on Pinball years ago and never gave any games a try. I just can't do it! I had to be coached on Angry Birds, for God's sake! I have heard of Super Mario Brothers, though.:)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] harpocrates:

[Vibrant Themes and Apps] harpocrates:
Slap Raymond...We have to get him and teach him how to play video games..you cant be a geek on xda and not a gamer..it disturbs the balance of the force...
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] harpocrates:
sorry havent done much work lately but have had some radiology apointments and been busy...next week i start my "vacation" off work so ill have more time..plus i havent seen any more ideas floating around on what icons to use where...so far what has been recomended will keep me busy for a couple of days before im stuck again on what to do...jdan..you were supposed to come back with ideas..lots of them..come on :P

[Vibrant Themes and Apps] sirganon:
hey harpocrates, i was wondering if you could update the OP with a list of the icons you already have a replacement for and maybe what you are replacing it with. that way it will be easier for someone like myself to see what doesnt have a new icon making it easier to look for new ones.

also i found this site for everyone to look through. maybe it will help with ideas.

(S)NES Sprites

another idea is to go to google and do image searches for "(game name) sprites"

ex: metroid sprites
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] harpocrates:
updating the op is a good idea...will do so, thanks. After thats done, be sure to check which icons are left and throw someideas this way ;)

edit: Updated Op...everyone please be sure to check on it as there are plenty of icons that I have no clue what to use. Jdan, suchavibrantthing, sirganon...anyone?
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] harpocrates:
if anyone can find numbers to use from a game..let me know..i think its too relace dialer numbers so keep an eye out for something that works..
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] harpocrates:
it will be a flashable zip based on the sbg theme that Jdan has created replacing the default icons mentioned in op with the custom 8-bit video game icons ive made for each one. I will also include a boot animation and shutdown animation and of course jdans theme restore zips for anyone who doesnt like it after trying it out. The icons are within the framework res apk . I pulled them out so you could see which icons im working with and replacing.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] harpocrates:
there has been a request to make live wallpapers but that requires a different set of skills which I can learn but do not plan on doing so right now :P...however I have found some appropriate ones for this theme which I might either add into theme (ill try contacting original devs) or at the very least post for download with links to credit the guys who made them. There are 3 or 4 i have so far.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:

The Sparkman looks really cool! I know I don't know much about this, but I'm trying to contribute something.:)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] harpocrates:
actually the final venison i made for low battery message looks a lot cooler...well I think so :P. It makes it so you don't feel as bad when you see the low battery message any more :P

and just stopping to say hi in my post is good enough...although i still need idea help from the gamers.. :P..31 people said they would like this kind of theme..not even a third have said what they would like in it!!! I need help with ideasssss

also im wondering who the one was who didnt want this theme...raymond...was it you? :P
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:
8-bit theme

Yes, it was me, but I'll wait and see what you come up with. I think you are going to have to make the decisions on what icons to use for whatever, yourself. You're taking this laziness thing too far! LOL!:)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] thegreatcity:
I don't know if you saw my suggestion before, but for the gps icon you could do a space invader with moving arms, then for a gps lock it could change colors or turn into the mothership.

These pictures would make cool wallpapers:

[Vibrant Themes and Apps] thegreatcity:
Also a few more suggestions, delete could be an 8 bit skull, microphone could be the mic icon from rock band. Don't know if you've done 3G/E icons, but it would be cool if those were stylized like retro games (ie: 1UP)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] ThC23:
I was just wondering when you were going to post some screen shots?

Rockin that Bionix V 1.2 w/ Androdena V4
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] sirganon:
ok ive been searching all sorts of places for a good set of numbers from any game and its not that easy to find. i did come across this though:

53 8-bit fonts

im kind of partial to the M06_QUADRA font myself...i think it would look pretty neat but thats just my opinion. the M31_MONKEY KONG one is kind of neat too. take a look at the fonts at least. maybe they will help you think of something if you cant find one you like.

and for the spinner icons i kind of like two icons on this page:

Secret of Mana Sprites

i like the 'Speed Up' icon and the 'Evil Gate' icon. i think either would be kind of neat. or you could use the trainer on the bike from punch out here:

(he has white shoes on. go HERE to see better...scroll to the bottom)

it would just show him pedaling which would be kind of funny

and i like those images thegreatcity posted a link to. they would make neat backgrounds. im thinking of trying to make a few of my own now...when i get the chance

just my 2cents, take it or leave it :D
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] harpocrates:
Well my "laziness"...radiation "vacation"starts tomorrow so I can get back to this theme...till now I've been running around from doctor to doctor and been working 10 to 12 hour days to make sure none of my projects get delayed from me being away from work for a month...or another engineer being screwed over by trying to finish my work while having no clue where my project was..what needs to be done..etc..

So i do apologize I have not been working on the theme..but like I said...i have "free" time now to finish the icons set as working on main post...but I would like everyone to post for the other icons..I'll see what I can do for gps icon with space invaders...and once I have the working on icons done ill post screenshots...

In the meantime...i need more suggestion for missing icons and....very important...who would you like for usb screen...I'll see if I can changed that...(as long as its not a qmg file...I'm sure its not but posting through phone now..)

Glad to see everyone is still following and I'll get back to work..sorry I had to stop...but I have time now...well starting tmr...

I hope that radiation treatments don't affect a person like chemo. Otherwise, it'll suck the life right out of you. I've had chemo so if it's like that expect to be a little tired. I'll make sure to check up on you as much as I can and don't push it. Health comes first!:)

maybe a battery mod with the green (above) mushroom full, orange (above) half charged, red mushroom low batt would be nice. console pic for download mode? i wish i was better at scripts and dev so i could help you.

guess i stick to giving ideas at focus groups :rolleyes:

Had my first session today and was there from 930 till 1pm...so when I got home I felt really tired...so much so I slept through lunch...and I was hungry when I got home...but sleepy won...tmr though session is at 8am and they promised I won't be long so I'll be home to work on theme...and hopefully post some screenshots I owe you guys...
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] harpocrates:
uploaded some screenshots :) Let me know what you think...
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] harpocrates:
thanks for fonts and suggestions..ill see what I can do with them...will choose best one for numbers...unless you have a recommendation.

also love the secret of mana for spinner..will work on that..evil gate i say :)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] harpocrates:
updates on progress...

had my second session of radiation today and spent 8+ hours updating this theme when i got back home...today i fought the urge to sleep like yesterday when i passed out after for about 4 hours...

I updated the main op and added screenshots as requested. Tomorrow I might not have as much time cause the session is later in the day and chances are ill be sleepier after the third session..i'm meant to get more tired as I do more sessions..or at least thats what they told me..

I hope the screenshots motivate you to give more ideas for leftover icons and are good enough to get you excited about this theme.I am honestly spending a lotttt of time on this so i hope you guys like it...
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] xtone:
HERE! check and see :)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] harpocrates:
Thanx for files...I've already done the usb icons...but those could be used for future updates (they are really good too)...or maybe an all mario theme....

But thanx for posting in thread and feel free to throw some ideas around for left over icons...

[Vibrant Themes and Apps] glacon175:
Hey, I've been following this theme since the outset and thought I would share some of my ideas for it. I understand you don't want it all themed to the same game, but some ideas seem to work so perfectly lol

search- Mystery Block from Super Mario (Any Version... whatever would work)

default android contact picture

wifi- Would love the Kid Icarus Heart here.. but there's only 2 sprites for it.. hmm

recovery- Heart container sprite from Zelda

emergency- Cross Sprite from LoZ (http://www.videogamesprites.net/Zelda2/Objects/)

answer call- Straight up Luigi Sprite... (Probably one that Is REALLY green)

decline call- Straight up Mario Sprite..Get it? Red and green for answer/ reject :)

download animation icons/ upload animation icons- http://tsgk.captainn.net/?p=sheetinfo&t=1119 Kirby blowing up, and Kirby blowing down... or is he sucking?

missed call- Sprite of Bowser? To complement the Mario/ Luigi call theme.. It's the only thing I can think of...

select text- Kamek's (From Yoshi's Island) Wand

That's all I got for now... good luck with the rest of this theme :D
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] suchavibrantthang:
i like the mario stage1 wallpaper. i think it's missing a Contra guy. haha

i thought the Zelda piece was going to be a straight up triangle you slide up to a greyish area to complete. guess that would be too much work. i like everything else so far. makin' progress

if android had a antivirus or security app, the hylian shield would fit nice:

What's wrong with this paragraph?... Not one swypo! Zilch, nada! Zap him again, turn up the juice!...LOL! Just kidding, Harpo. Great work, but sleep as much as your body needs too. BTW, I have nearly figured out, on my own I might add, how to edit those .9png's. You'll be the first to see my creation if I am successful!:D
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] harpocrates:
where are those 9pngs located..send me one so i can see what i can do with it...been typing a lot from keyboard so now swypos..and then chrome corrects typos... :P

Im resting...ive got nothing else to do...zapping and then home..i try to avoid sleeping right after cause it feels like im coming out of a coma when i wake up...
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] harpocrates:
mario and zelda do seem to have a lot of stuff to use...and yeah im trying to vary it..but if something feels right from there...ill have to use it...

appreciate all your ideas..ill start working on these again today and tomorrow and if i use any recommendation I will give you credit for idea :)

sorry for delaying this for all of you..im guessing you might be as eager as i am to see this theme...i mean im dying to get it done and i get to test the various icons as i go..i am going to post some more screenshots of them as they look in phone..
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] harpocrates:
i thought of doing it like that...but then i wouldnt have link anywhere in it..and i wanted to use link..so i went with that...however i could do something else..when i finish this theme i could later update each icon as we go..so version 2 could have the triforce on the left and in the missing puzzle could be link and you place triforce on link and it unlocks?

nothing is too much work (well everything is :P) but it can be done..ill update that when everything else is done..rather than tweaking current icons..ill leave that for updates to theme...agreed?

im not doing individual app icons yet..still working on all the framework icons first...when that is done ill do extra..To be honest..there is so much you can do to add on to this theme..i just want to give you guys a first release that is a good base and then work to add on to it...
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:
8-bit theme

This all started when I was trying to edit the bubbles of the stock MMS. In any .apk, they are in res-drawable-hdpi, I think. All of the buttons, widgets, etc..., but the Wallpapers are plain old jpg's. The process involves changing the .9.png to a regular .png then you can edit it with no problem. Then, you must drag it into 9Patch so that when you are done with that process, it automatically makes it a .9.png again. Then for signing, you must use Eclipse or another app that I can't remember right now. Seems straightforward enough, but I'm sure I'll screw it up. To torture myself, I decided to learn this on my Windows partition. I need to branch out.:D What I'm not sure of is whether or not any parameters will need to be reset if I'm making just a little change to the original image which would mean I would just drag it into 9Patch and save. But that's what I need to find out. I saw a good guide on how to operate Eclipse, I've already figured out 9Patch!:D

[Vibrant Themes and Apps] harpocrates:
Yes I did.. it was awesome and how I used to respond when I was a barista/bartender /waiter... :p

Also...I wanted to apologize there have been no updates on this..but I've b een having a few more radiation sessions and when I go home I just sleep (pass out) so I haven't done anything...i know there are quite a few people waiting for me to get off my but and release it...I've had my last radiation season for now so I can start working on it...i didnt expect id be sleeping this whole time..i thought I'd have time to work on theme..i will work overtime to make up....
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] jrathbun27:
Dont worry about not being able to work on it bud, if people dont understand that you've been going through radiation then they dont deserve to use your theme :p

But anyways, i was reading through and saw mention of a "duck hunt" boot ani and would be sweet to be able to interact while loading, while that would be awesome kinda not possible so i was thinking, what about a live wallpaper with duckhunt? There, you would be able to tap ducks as they fly over and see them fall out of the sky... now THAT would be fantastic... just throwin out my thoughts :cool:
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:
8 bit theme

I tried to give you a heads up on that without revealing too much about what I've been through, but yeah, if radiation is like chemotherapy, then it really sucks the life right out of you.
