So I was talking on IRC to some people about this thing called Rockbox that I got for my iPod. It's got some cool features, but one of the cooler ones is the ability to make custom themes. Tonight I made one based off of Castlevania. Check it out:

Menu Screens


Now Playing screen. (Don't mind the copied menu text in the middle. This is a mock-up of what it actually looks like, normally the song info goes there)

The features on the Now Playing screen are:
The "Song" life bar is the progress bar for the song that's playing
The "Battery" life bar is just that. It displays battery life.
The icon in the weapon window changes to display play, pause, fast-forward, and rewind
The three tiles are for Repeat, Shuffle, and Hold.

Yeah, I didn't even think about letting people have this... I'm so damn selfish sometimes. If anyone has an iPod video and wants this for it, say so and I'll zip it up and put it in this thread. I might make another theme tomorrow. They're kind of fun to make when you get the hang of it.

Though I normally would go on to rant against iPods at this place, this actually looks fairly nice. Unfortunately, I only have one of those boring old 2GB flash memory sticks with dot matrix display.

Look up Rockbox's site, they have support for older MP3 players (I don't know what you have) and they still have some pretty cool looking themes for them. You can go on the tirade if you want too, I mean that's why I got Rockbox in the first place. I was sick of my iPod, and I found out that this would make it a lot better.

Well, my player isn't of the kind that could be themed in any way, being of the "flash memory stick with MP3 player function added on top of it" breed... unless you replace the firmware, I guess, but that would hardly be worth it. Castle Dracula would have to be like 5 or 6 pixels tall to fit on the display.
