Thank you for telling me, I will get a fix in for that and post a new build asap. You know where the donate link is

dude. quit begging for donations when you're simply porting (sort of) other peoples' themes and then calling them "your themes"...especially when you didn't even have permisson in the beginning to use our stuff.

I am the new guy and was not familiar with the process. I kindly spoke to you about it and gave proper credit to those themes whom themes I used, I never once claimed these themes as my own. And if I did tell me where? I respect your feedback and am here to keep peace and make people happy. Didn't mean to offend you. Let's not make it public. I would appreciate a personal message. I will work on improvement. Thanks

[dubsx]

yes and when we talked I thought I made it clear: do not claim my stuff, or anyone else's as your own...which you have done multiple times. And if you aren't claiming the work then why ask for donations?

Lol, Blazo, Your the man! I am glad SOMEONE is using my work for a good purpose

You are running one of my themes? Which one are you using? Do you like it? find any issues?

Thanks!

Thanks for the feedback, Didn't mean to make it sound like i was taking all the credit for the themes. I also made it clear that this was not my work in the beginning of my post in the red text. So people do know that it was not my themes. I guess i can work on some better abbreviating when i said "My". I spent a lot of time learning how to do this, and do the little bit of things i have done. When i add the themeing i call it my work, because adding it to the Rom was my work. All the items used were not. So i did not mean to miss use my wording, and not give credit when appropriate, Again, my apologize

Why even have a donation link?

Why even have a donation link?

I asked myself the same question when i was browsing through some posts, Seemed like a good idea! Its just a link, i dont think it is hurting anything to add an extra 9 or so characters to a post. Don't know why i am getting all these personal attacks. Just giving the benefit of these themes for other people to enjoy as i do myself. Aren't we all here to make friends?

[eye__dea]

Not attacking you man. Your trying to help the community which is appreciated. There is some etiquette to follow though. Theming is a real pain in the rear and takes a lot of time to decompile the apks. I personally spent quite a few days just theming the framework-res.apk for Blurry. You just need to be a little more careful is all. Keep working on your themes and always give props to other peoples work.

Hey man i appreciate that, your kindness and appreciation for what i did. I removed the link from my post. I hope to create more themes and keep up the work. I enjoy doing it, and simply making it look "Cool" !
It is a feeling of satisfaction! Thanks eye_dea

Right on man. If you need any help...you can always hit me up. Keep up your strong work. Can't wait to see what color is next in your line up.

I know i came off like a jerk here, but I've spent hundreds of hours on my themes. Too much time to have anyone throw my stuff in a different folder, call it theirs, and ask for money for it.

I think what you're doing is great...giving people options that's what its all about. But there are rules. If you can learn from digging into my stuff and messing around then I'm more than willing to help, ask anyone.

I will tell you this though: if you're doing this to get paid you're in the wrong place. You can't expect to get a donation every time you put out something new or fix something you broke. Doesn't really work that way. Do it because you enjoy it. Do it because you want to learn and help others learn. That's what makes this community what it is. Start putting out your OWN complete themes and then you can throw up a donation link. Maybe the donations will come. Maybe they won't. That's not what we do it for.

That said, if you ever have questions I am more than willing to help, you know how to reach me. I wouldn't have been able to do the stuff I do without help along the way.

On the Pink theme the keyboard is not pink on my Bionic.

I tried to theme the Keyboard Pink and it kept force closing on me. I didnt spend a ton of time trying before i moved on. For a work around you can use the Go Keyboard and use a Pink theme.
