Thanks for all the help!

No problem bro. @Basil3 said the @Mikanoshi way is easier but I can't understand any of it. And thought this is the easiest way for me. You should figure it out with the OP instruction. It the way how I work on it.

I think he said he would look at it. I did and it uses java. Basically if you're going to make a theme you're going to need to consider incorporating some of the categories into it.

thanks Fisha for those finds, it helps from starting from scratch.. i'm replacing all the green with blue on the fourth theme ( will come all dark with blue ;) ).. will keep you posted on how it goes..

all colors of the four themes are in resources/values/colors.. it's from here you modify everything... ( only colors )

Did you manage it? I think you can do pretty much everything with resources. I have done the same thing for the 4th theme, only replacing green with red.

Yes I did everything to blue , looks good.. but I don't know how to use vrtheme, need to learn, but no time , to busy with my job

You did not replace everything to red BAS..
you forgot to change some colors in "styles" or in "colors"..
I'll post screenshot on Monday
Do you have the m8 yet ;)

Yeah, got the M8. You don't actually need to replace all colours, just the ones that are necessary (i think). Haven't noticed any out of place colours in the themes yet. Let me know of any apps that aren't themed.

Send me a pm about vr theming if you want. Will take 2 mins to learn.

Dougi, great to see you! Was wondering where you disappeared to..

EDIT: I've decided to close this thread and consolidate all theme stuff into my general Sense 6 thread that got stickied. Thought it would be useful to have separate threads on each, but there's so much overlap that this thread seems a little redundant now, and there's a risk of things getting lost/duplicated.

Any further contributions should be added to this threadinstead.

Thanks, and see you over there!
