[THEME][How To] Theme Beta Swype

[jack52482]

thanks

yeah they all work great and look even better thanks again.
itd be cool to see some new themes that have 2 colors like the plum....just a suggestion

Rockin gROM and method 2 works like a champ. If at all possible could you make a black keyboard with blue letters instead of white? Would look sweet with the chill out theme and probably the stock optiROM theme as well

Edit: I figured I'd save you the trouble and try to edit the theme myself. If I just change the white to blue in all of the png files in the blackswypemm.zip that should do the trick right?

yeah, if you have the option in your graphic program to colorfy would be the easy way. Some keys won't change unless you do some xml editing. If you want a different font, i can do that. There is a neon blue swype one, but needs about 6 more overlays for swype beta.

Here is the neon blue letters by mrakattack on XDA. Metamorph. I just added the 6 needed files.

Well I'll check that out but I just spent the last hour changing the colors in the blackswypemm.zip png files from white to blue. Installed via your method and it looks fantastic Only problem is there are a couple things that are still white which are the following....EN button, ABC 123, , and OPT. Other than that everything is blue and looks/works great. Uploaded the file if anyone is curious

Edit: I'll be redoing this shortly with a lighter shade of blue to try and match The Theme Team's "Chill Out" theme. I suppose I should have paid more attention the first time around lol. This one will probably match "Blue Touch" quite well though.

 

[kingdavidbaker]

Remade with the shade of blue taken directly from the Chill Out theme. If anyone actually wants to use this you will need to rename it to "blackswypeMM.zip" or metamorph will bark.

Edit: Oh and changing from dark to light blue was ridiculously easier than changing the white to blue lol. At this point I could make any color lettering inside of a few minutes

just got the new beta. looks pretty different. wondering if these instructions have worked fit anyone else?

 

[thekraven]

I'll have a look. I'll make a note for 3.25 beta swype only till I see what's different.

 

[Masterjakeway]

looks like the file structure is completely different...

Any chance of a Swype skin for the Beta 3.26 build? It uses Dragon Dictate instead of Google Voice, and uses a different icon.
Thanks for all your work, you have done a great job beautifying many peoples keyboards!
