Intro

Welcome guys and gals, this is my very first theme I've ever made for the CyanogenMod theme chooser.
I hope that it satisfies everyone, also please give me some feedback :).

PLEASE NOTE!!! THIS THEME ONLY WORKS ON THE NEW THEME CHOOSER!!!

How this theme came about -

I myself am a huge fan of Minimal Designs. I like simplicity and modern UI combined together.
So I began cooking up this theme, after many rebooting, editing and preparing this theme.
I present to you Svelte - Svelte came to English from the French, back in the 19th century when the French had the last word on fashion, which probably accounts for its associations with elegance.

What's currently themed -

[x] Framework-res
[x] SystemUI
[x] Settings
[x] Browser (AOSP)
[x] Es File Explorer
[x] More to come ... :)

Thanks for the feedback! Anything I can improve on?

Well I know it's going to come eventually, but maybe a font and (definitely) a beautiful boot animation

And I'm torn by the double bar in the status bar pull down

So far so good though. I can't really think of anything else since I've been using it for about an hour or so

Awesome!

Nice work! Amazing! I wish I could try this on my galaxy tab 3 and my Galaxy s4!

This is a theme that I would keep forever:)

Luckily CM11 is being built for the galaxy tab 3

but my galaxy s4 still has a locked bootloader, darn't!

Anyways, keep up the good work:)

For me I always love new status bar icons! Thanks for your nice reply:)

Oh i see you have the nexus 5! I love that beauty of a phone. I was going to get it but instead chose wrong and got the s4! SAD!

And yeah, got a few months or so ago.

Can you provide the SMS's Icon (the blue one) that is in the first picture ?

btw: I think the theme would gain more value if tou costumize the QS icons

This is amazing! Simple, a bit darker and clean, just what I was looking for! :D Thanks a ton!

Edit: just a little request/tip/whatever, could you make the pop-up window a little grayish like the rest of the ui and not completely black? ? ???

    Decided to remove the scrubber progress colour. Looks more clean now.
    Also removed the dot in the middle.

    Tinted the statusbar to match the actionbar. Does not cause issues in any way.

    Bigger dot selector to indicate that its been selected, its more visible. And to make things even cleaner I've gone ahead and removed the side shadows of all popups.

    And various other additions to the theme, if you have suggestions. Let me know and I'll see if I can go about adding them.

    Thanks.

    Well my suggestion is about maybe remove the handlebar which has the line thing when u drag down. Well its just me so.. Its cool too if you wont. This is the only reason i use xblast to remove handlebar.

    A minimal keyboard from google.. Maybe without lines and a bit gray like settings color

    A minimal softkey? Up to you i dont mind but would love to see this.

    Bootanimation- you can add this as donation addon or something in which its minimal. Maybe 3 loading dots? Lol. Its your style. Ill like it anyway.

    Icons - a donate version too. Because these things require a very long time to polish. Not all white but somehow like moonshine or hera icons style but more of your style. And to match the app it has like when you see the icon inside the settings and its a gear and it blends with the settings.

    Its a cool theme and i dont mind spendibg some bucks if its well refined. Its been my default for many dayz man. Hands down to you. I found the best theme that fits me.

    Thanks for the great suggestions, I will definitely consider doing most off them. Maybe all, the keyboard may take me some time but I'll get it :).

    Thanks again for the awesome feedback everyone, I appreciate it!
