    Hi!

    this is my first theme for PointUi2. I hope you'll liked it.
    I've built it around the initial background which gave its name to the theme but I like it with a simple black background too.

    Thanks to ibeast for the butterfly background, it is nice!

    I haven't changed all the png files of the initial theme, but there are those I didn't seen anywhere in PointUi... If you find something ugly, tell me where, I'll correct it ;)

    In the file "clock_numbers.zip" you'll find the numbers I use for the HomeClock applet.

    EDIT : Hum, my screenshots are not of a very good quality... :/ With which software do you make your screenshots?

    Ok, I'll try to be understandable ^^
    I'm not a pro so... it's just my own experience.

    To make a theme you just have to make your own images and convert them into the right format and give them the right name to replace the original files.
    - First, you can copy/paste the original theme under an other name in your pointui theme folder. When you go into "Customize/Change theme" you must see your new folder.
    - The second work is to replace all .jif files in this theme folder with your own images.
    - .jif files are only .png files converted with this tool
    - So, the only thing you have to do is to create your own images using a software like Gimp or Photoshop and save them in png format. Personally, I use Gimp, it's free and very powerful (I probably don't use the half of the possibilities, actually...). You can found it here.
    - For a beginning you can use this great theme (thanks Greefire) for QVGA. With the colors you can easily see which file you have to modify and you have the original png furnished in the zip. You can start working from them.
    If you want png for VGA devices you can found them here.
    - Once you have your png files with correct names, you just have to convert them with PngToJif and copy them into your theme folder, replacing the original file. Reload your theme and you must see your work!

    I hope you understood my frenglish ^^

    Ho sorry for the late reply... I was in holidays and I don't see the responses.

    @lil-key and CUH : I've made png files directly for QVGA resolution so I don't know if it will look nice with only resizing them, but I will try to post them.

    @macrat : thanks ;)

    @Iceman692 : You have to change de files names 1.jif, 2.jif...9.jif in the corresponding applet folder. Sometimes the names are like this 1.QVGA.jif or 1.VGA.jif, you just have to replace it the same way.
    For the colon image the file is col.jif and for am/pm there are am.jif and pm.jif, but I did'nt try to change them because I don't use them...

    wow, the icons are soo beautiful!!
    can you please lower the brightness on the icons? just a tiny bit, because they're very bright that I can't see too well the details on them. but don't lower too much =D, basically all of them need lower brightness except the one on the front page which brings us to the 9 quick dial.

    i'm thinking that maybe a bit of modification for the bottom bar also would be good, I like how low it is, it doesn't interfere with anything above it, but maybe a newer design to fit the theme more as the icons feel a bit different compared to the bottom bar.
    thanks for the great theme kiiv :D

    edit: I think it's only the white that is too bright.
