Some people have been having some complications setting their color schemes on @jds3118's Echoe Rom.
It's working out to be a beautiful rom and he (along with those in assistance and guidance) are doing a wonderful job.
So to better the experience for the common user and with the suggestion of a fellow member I took the initiative to create a seperate thread for sharing those settings.
To backup your color scheme open the Echoe Rom Control app.
Tap the menu in the top left corner.
Scroll downward to Backup & Restore

Select "Backup data" which saves the file to your internal storage.

Check for RomControl > Backups. You should see your file in there.
Simply zip it up and share it!

To install one: just download it, unzip it to /sdcard/RomControl/Backups
Next open Echoe ROM Control app, press the menu option, scroll downward to Backup & Restore, select restore data option and if you successfully placed the file in the correct directory you should now see it as an option. Select it, tap "OK" and then CONFIRM. You will probably get a force close error. Just tap OK. A reboot might be necessary to see all of the modifications.

When sharing with the forum please include a few screenshots for our convenience. We'd all appreciate it. Also, I'd recommend making a backup of what you currently have before applying anything else. Let's keep it clean and have fun!

Hmm...I followed the instructions in the OP, however my theme didn't change, even after a reboot.
*EDIT*
I got it to work :) What happened was that when I unzipped the file to ROM Control, it saved it in another ROM Control folder WITHIN the backup folder. I moved the image to the original backup folder, and voila!

I am a member of the forum but not of their team.
I don't so I won't.
Your good my friend your sharing individual color themes based from the roms control app. As a member of echoe team I like the idea and the thread.

Nothing is working for me? I try to change colors, icons, etc, but when I reboot/reboot system UI nothing changes. Am I missing something?? I tried downloading a zip from above and restoring that but even that doesn't work?

I can't find the settings to change the icons - only the various colored items ?? I restored a posted backup but would like to experiment with different icons.

Which icon? I'm using a theme from the theme store then changed the colours to my liking. Or try wiziconizer I'm helpful apps for app icons
