First of all, it's a WIP. I've uploaded it in its present state in case people want to take it and run with it themselves. I'd like suggestions about what could be cool to add, but its probably more of a pet project tbh, as I said, take it and make the amendments you want to suit your style.

So anyway, I wouldn't call it a full theme, or even a black bar mod (considering if you use this, you'll actually be using the in built black bar functionality of DeFrost.

I've gone for a black/orange theme, some of the icons you may recognise from the Galaxy S (except now in orange, not blue). Also the battery icon has a couple of orange shades depending on how much is left.

As of yet, the DeFrost rom won't correctly export colour profiles, so I'll just list the ones I'm using to get the colours you see in the screens:

Menu > Settings > DeFrost Settings > User Interface

> Status Bar
Battery Percentage: Tick
Battery Percentage Colour: [select a white colour]
Clock Colour: #ffdfdfdf

> Date and Provider
Date Colour: #ffdfdfdf
(Just found these, so screens don't show this change)
Carrier PLMN Label Colour: #ffdfdfdf
Carrier SPN Label Colour: #ffdfdfdf

> Notifications Colours
Notifications Ticker colour: #ffdfdfdf
Notifications count colour: #ffdfdfdf
No notifications title colour: #ffdfdfdf
Clear notifications label colour: [select a black colour]
Ongoing notifications title colour: #ffffffff
Latest notifications title colour: #ffffffff

items title colour: #ffdfdfdf
items text colour: #fff89f13
items time colour: #fff89f13

custom notification bar: tick
bar colour: [select a black colour]
custom pulldown bar: tick
pulldown bar colour: [select a black colour]

Thats about it! :)

How hard would it be for me to change the colour of the icons from orange? Is it simple or does is it require a lot of knowledge?
Thanks in advance!

Nice Lekky.

Will flashing that .zip file make my phone have the same colours as you? i have just tried doing what you posted some of the colours were there but no orange ones....?

Looks very nice mate, and this ROM is well speedy!

Lekky, can you confirm that the original status bar on 2.6 is white. The settings you have modified are to change text colors to white on a black status bar.

Is there a setting specifically to change the status bar color or is it part of your update file. Thanks

you need to flash the zip and also apply the settings i listed too, also when you change the colours using the settings, they don't apply straight away, in fact might be good idea to restart phone to force them to refresh

Really liking this, will give it a go now!
Can I ask what other programs/widgets you're using in that Home screen pic?
Tajm and battstatt. Launcher pro with my icon set: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=748208
