Just installed this one. Daaaammnnn...that new equalizer is pure eye candy. I must admit the prior version made it difficult to determine where the levels were set to. I didn't comment because I was afraid you would go the other way and make it too conservative. This one looks polished, just as colourful and makes it immediately obvious to determine your levels. The semi transparent Hifi record as the volume wheel is just as sexy. I agree that calling it quits with this theme for fw 2.4 is a smart move at this point in time.

"Simplicity"​

 ​

​

Great theme, and I  love the colors. Great work!

To be clear, the credit for the theme goes to TheoS53, and Hawaiibadboy made the video of it. Great work by both of them and appreciated by all I'm sure.

Edit: Perhaps Hawaiibadboy should label the vid "Simplicity by TheoS53" to avoid any potential confusion.

2 Photo based Themes with all i have learned.
 
Classic'all  will be geared towards older users or those with an affinity towards Classical music. Using images (mostly B&W)
1977 is the year all the super groups it seems had world tours so it will be a wide open stadium crowd'ish nostalgic Rock and Roll flashback.

I haven't been able to finish Fragments II yet due to being busy; however, I have gotten to a point where I can upload a pre-release. Feel free to use or test for bugs (It should be good enough for daily use), but there are many graphics not updated from the original release. I also won't advise to use this as a base for a new theme.
 
Pre-Release 1:

1. Lists are now easier to read and have more depth
2. Topbar elements moved around
3. More metal/aluminum everywhere
4. New icons for shuffle/repeat/etc from Oxygen/Elegance
5. Carbon fiber for certain screens
6. Moved Fiio logo to boot splash; firmware name in boot animation instead

 
If you have any suggestions, please let me know and I'll try to get the changes in by the next pre-release.

Fantastic, can't wait to try it out and poke around a bit!

I didn't mean to short anyone on proper credit as you all do really neat themes that I enjoy. Keep up the great work that keeps the X5 so much fun!
Greatly appreciated.

 Themes can be divided into two categories: a work's thematic concept is what readers "think the work is about" and its thematic statement being "what the work says about the subject"

 
I have OCD
 
I believe a theme is a narrative.
 
For example"
 
This is Seji Ozawa
I saw him conduct the Boston Symphony Orchestra in person crazy hair flailing around. Feeling the power of an Orchestra was my birth into basshead'ism as the force of energy by a full orchestra live is amazing...you feel it through your body
 
 
Considering how I and maybe some others navigate the X5
 
INTRO (I made that gif)

 

 
>>Select file>>check eq>>adjust volume...
 
 
Or Intro...browse file select file...check eq.....adjust volume and done
 
for example
 
 
 
My themes will be a narration in the defined meaning of Theme. The intro is the part 1 the interaction with the device is the body part 2 and the closing is part 3
 
3 effective parts with narrative elements tying them in. My view.
Not better or less than another style. I am sure some OCD folks with an affinity towards mini stories will like my stuff and others won't.
Icons,colors etc will be unique to the theme. Nobody will see an intro they have seen before in a gif. I make these myself. The hunt for a guy placing a needle on the vinyl in "Hi-Fi" was after watching "How to change your turntables needle/stylus" videos for a long time

....(Learning experience.)
 
The themes will me made from the next firmware which gives me time to collect stuff and really consider the story which will be typed when it's introduced. Like the movie Inception the viewer sees what they want but I will present an idea with gaps filled by their mind.
 
 
The videos are working out great .
 
I consider this thread to be for the benefit of non members as Head-Fi has a "Group" system for groups. I bought my X5 partly after seeing @flowerlandfilms and @CH23 work so they helped sell an X5. Head-fi knows this. It is liked. Share the love...

You made reference to the fact what you saw on here helped convince you to buy this device. All I ever heard from salespeople was Fiio had the worst customer support. What I've seen is the other extreme, a company that is willing to listen to feedback and modders who are willing to do the same. Just makes this device so much enjoyable to use and customise.
