One of you creative types...
 
and you know who you are...

should create a Fiesta-based iGoogle theme...or maybe multiple themes...or maybe turn it into a FiestaFan iGoogle theme competition or something...

anyhow, just a thot.

Ownage, if you have nothing to contribute to the thread I suggest you don't respond. This isn't in MoS.

Anyway, how do you go about making iGoogle themes?

Eru 06-11-2008 08:30 PM

Here is the info on how to create themes for developers
http://code.google.com/apis/themes/docs/dev_guide.html
need knowledge of html, css, a little xml, and image manipulation skills...
I have all but the last, but the last is what makes it look cool !


Just as backinfo, iGoogle is Google's personalizable portal for users of gmail, Google calendar, and many other custom pluggable objects...u get to it by going to www.google.com/ig login using ur gmail/google account username etc...

Intresting thanks for the link...Too bad Fiesta doest have alot of good image available to the public, you have to search and search for the images. But that gave me a great idea for other things!

Anyone know a good place to get Fiesta images btw...or BK or kFiesta is fine.

Loveless 06-11-2008 10:21 PM

Seems so complicated... Only thing I don't know is xml though... o__o

For images, you can try here: BK Screens

Zwivix 06-11-2008 10:29 PM

Wow loveless this is great! Woohoo i have IMAGES!

yeah and i dont know xml...im reading up on it.

Eru 06-11-2008 10:30 PM

its really easy...they give a lot of examples. You can almost just learn by cut/paste the examples.

Anyone interested that wants help with the techie side, I can help with that!

Also, if anyone actually does this, be sure and post a link or something so we (me) can check it out!

:ninja:
*ahem* might also be kinda cool for a guild them ;)

Zwivix 06-11-2008 10:31 PM

Yeah i might look into this...maybe on some spare time i can work on it.

LOL!!! well i have none of the knowledge... (maybe a little bit of html but not enough to help...)

but i can see that you guys will potentially get a team together and everyone contribute their expertise into this!

(A bit like our wiki, some ppl gather info, others do the coding)

It would be awesome if this went ahead, coz all the other igoogle themes are boring LOL!

I have none by the last! LOL!

That's really cool though!!

Loveless 06-12-2008 05:39 AM

Hm... so how about the "creative ones" draw up the images and you put em together? Lol

I think a guild theme would be great too. xD

yeah...i was actually thinking along these lines last night...
I've never done one, but shouldn't take too much time. Maybe I can make a documented template or something and post the code here...

I can let you know images sizes and we can all discuss ideas here...coz one neat feature is that the theme can change based on time of day or weather in your area!!!

also, wont be this weekend (wife's birthday) but I'll prolly start working with it the next.

Zwivix, try these. If they do not work let me know. Also, I will try to get another file for you, but it is huge and my work computer cannot handle it. I will try to add it when I get home.

Feel free to use any of these screenshots or art as you see fit.

This is the larger one, see if you can get it to open for you.

Ralath 06-17-2008 06:27 PM

Can someone explain what an iGoogle is?

o.o

I typed in iGoogle in Google and it wanted me to customize my own iGoogle stuff.

@.@ :lost:

lol...its a customize your own Google stuff ;)

iGoogle is a module/gadget-based portal for people with Google Accounts (a gmail address). For example, I have a movies module, and local weather, customized news etc...its sorta like myYahoo, but it's iGoogle ;)

I don't use yahoo so i don't know if the have this customizable theme feature, but basically you can also choose different "skins" to change the look-and-feel of your iGoogle portal. I was simply suggesting a Fiesta or FeestaFan-based skin or maybe a couple of them.
