love the Storm icons.. are these stock icons available in Theme Studio 5.0 or another source?

This theme doesn't work on my Bold running 4.6.

Is this just for OS5?

Yes, they are in the new Theme Studio 5.0, but I had to re size them.

The size that worked was 80x85 pixels for the home screen.

The app screen did not need resizing, I just used the stock 360x480 storm icon, underlay & glow icons.

The weather icon, underlay & glow icons are either 60 or 72 pixels square, I forgot which one I ended up using.

I also used the same underlay as the weather icon for the profile icon on the home screen.

The icons are in the Precision 360x480 folder where the other icons are.

Hope this helps.

Rich, yes this version is for OS 5.0. I will post a 4.6 version soon.

Hopefully tonight or tomorrow night depending on my schedule.

dave,
Thanks so much for the descriptions of what you used and where the icons are located.. much appreciated!!

Rockdog, no problem.

By the way, the square underlays I resized them myself by changing the dimensions without keeping the aspect ratio.

Also, if I remember correctly, I only needed to use the underlay, icon & glow icons from the storm set.

The bold stock app icons work well with the storm underlays.

I didn't have any time today to work on anything new, but am itching to refine this theme & offer non-today, non-weather & 4.6 versions along with color variations.

I think I can set a block of time during Thanksgiving weekend to post some of these.

As I learn more, I will share more.
