Did you happen to delete/rename any of the gfx. That happened to me when I tried getting rid of a file I though I didn't need. When the x3 couldn't find it, it just shot me a white screen.

gfx = graphics, just shorter (although having to explain kinda blew that out of the water). As long as the names (and resolutions) are the same that shouldn't be the prob. If you're willing to post it anyways, I can try to help troubleshoot.

Great start Mmet!

Great idea to color code the volume arc. I might suggest green, yellow, red to indicate safe, moderate, and potentially dangerous volumes.

it is just a start to see how things will work .... but you are right about your suggestions and may be other colors too .... and also i made the battery icon changes its colors completely when charging during playing and usb dac mode ... i wish if i could change the the volume icon to a vertical bar too

Yes, a vertical overlay for volume, bass, treble, etc. would have been much better, IMHO. Even better, lose the overlay altogether for volume and just use the volume indicator in the top strip!

I did crop/scale (seems you can go smaller) the icons in order to line up the way they are (if you could see the files in gimp, you'd see the background also overlap). If you're trying to use the original sizes nothing will line up (just take a look at themes 2-6 on mine). There could be a better way to make my theme, but this was the quickest way I could think of.
