These are just some modifications of Julien's (aka N.O.W.A.L.L) design that I did to match the green Theme I had created. These would be placed in your backgrounds folder to replace the orange themed images.

I didn't try the green theme/backgrounds but according to screenshots it looks cool!

I was thinking myself for the last couple of weeks of updating the backgrounds I made for the settings, keeping the square orange symbols, but making more simple background, maybe playing a bit with alpha layer.

Indeed, the first things I made for CE2 were the power buttons then the settings backgrounds. But at the end my backgrounds aren't so much corporate with the theme, I mean this brushed steel texture with curved laser beam look strange now.

Maybe this week-end I will pull my PSD out of dust and work on this for orange/silver themes

Anyway good job Sam!

To make fit the green theme with the rest of the skin i'll add a green color to choose in appearance settings, so all the orange labels would become green.
Sam, for doing this i need to know which green you're using.

I don't know if this was mentioned before, but when I watch a TV Show and push the Info Button the clearart overlaps the Plot.

I have been using a few shades of green. I would go with the main green as I did the shadows in a slightly darker green.

The main green is listed below
RGB Values
R - 0 / G - 166 / B - 81

CMYK
C - 83% / M - 6% / Y - 96% / K - 1%

The shadow behind the setting backgrounds are listed below.

RGB Values
R - 0 / G - 166 / B - 81

CMYK Values
C - 100% / M - 0% / Y - 100% / K - 0%
