Default Theme: Message-centric today carbon fiber

* UPDATED March 6, 2009 with #9 *

I made this theme for my use; thought I'd share for those interested.
Basically I needed a message-centric today screen so I can quickly view incoming email and sms messages, along with sms pages from my answering service. I used a carbon fiber background for a high contrast clean professional look, and the stock Precision Zen theme's icons/layouts. The zip file contains the .alx and .cod files for installation via DM. OTA files in subdirectory for direct download via Storm's web browser. Enjoy!

DM and OTA downloads link: Index of ./

9 Versions: differing combinations on Home screen - all versions with customizable app icons on Home screen (via beginning order of apps on Application screen)
1- MsgCarbonFiber.zip
2- CalendarCarbonFiber.zip
3- MsgCalCarbonFiber.zip
4- MsgTodayCarbonFiber.zip - 4 upcoming calender entries appear when you hover/touch (not click) on Calendar icon, otherwise it's hidden
5- LtodayCarbonFiber.zip - yellow text appears when you hover/touch on Message, SMS and Calendar icons
6- LtodayWhiteCarbonFiber.zip - same as 5, but with bold white text
7- Ltoday2Leather.zip
8- MasonicToday.zip
9- IndustrialToday.zip

I want to make themes. Yet, I suck at it, so I will just enjoy everyone who does not. Nice work.

Hmmm, I know I can export the theme to a .jad file for OTA, but the export also produces several .cod files which I don't know if these are needed or not.

Anyone know?

Default OTA now available

OTA now available

Let's see if this worked.
I've now got the OTA files (.jad and .cod's) for each theme, in separate subdirectories. Go to the subdirectory and click on the .jad file.

Let me know if this works or not. Thnx!

Was thinking the same. Would it be possible to make the bottom icons customizable with just a message and calendar icon?

Default Great theme

Favorite looking one so far. Is there any way to put missed calls in place of the today row.
