Friday Feature – 5th Feb

This week we feature MetalDock by rufinorosado. As well as using a slick custom dock graphic, rufinorosado has shown great creativity in dealing with a paradigm of Sweeter Home and using it to an advantage of his design. Sweeter Home requires ‘blank’ screen space to drag from screen to screen, so here we see an arrow tab which allows you to swipe to the bottom screen revealing the apps tray. It’s a great solution, looks cool and works well. (You can see the tab in mid-swipe on the right below). MetalDock is available for download now.
Built for G1/Magic (320×480).

Featured today is a theme that quickly became one of the most downloaded on the Sweeter Home server Theme List to date. SmallCaps by elblacksheep is one of the most polished of many “clean and simple” themes. It’s focus is being lightweight and clear in it’s layout.

Friday Feature!
January 20, 2010 by Lemon · 4 Comments
Starting this week – every Friday I’ll be featuring a Sweeter Home theme from you readers out there. The theme must be live and downloadable from the Sweeter Home theme list, or the SLX must be available online.
The best place for you to show off your themes is in the Themes Forum, but I may find themes from browsing other Android forums, or in the SH theme list itself. We want you to SHARE!
I’ll be picking themes that use custom content, or inventive layouts, or clean, beautiful design – OR a combination of all these.
So for consideration post your theme previews up for all to see!
Android 2.0 Theme
Really great work in progress here from LJB. Keep an eye out for it when he drops it.

Star Wars theme

Thanks to reader Jay for emailing me these screen shots. He’s used some tips and tricks from this blog and created his own Star Wars theme in Sweeter Home. Darth Vader looks great on that middle screen! Makes me feel like he’s looking right at me.
Thanks for sending this through, Jay. It’s always great to see what people are rocking on their phones.
Jay’s not ready to share this one yet, but if you scream enough in the comments he might get it ready for y’all!
Grey Fox Theme
April 22, 2009 by Lemon · 2 Comments
Ennui is the first guy I’ve found to share a pretty good theme. So while you’re trying out Thrillho and waiting for Preview 2 of Sweeter Home to drop (not too far off I’m told) take Grey Fox for a run. The system/apps screen is great!
Great video demo on Androinica
Well it looks like enough time has passed. More people are starting to share their themes! There’s a great video post over at Androinica where Andrew shows the Watchmen theme he’s been working with. He also showcases as EXCELLENT workaround you can use if you don’t like the current default springboard icons. Simply set an image as a button on the layer above the springboard icon and cover it up! Great work, Andrew. The Comedian screen with SMSs at the bottom is a slick piece of design!
