Anybody have a request for a theme? I'm bored and I want a challenge to see if I can create a visually appealing theme. Can't have sound though. I'm not quite set up to do anything with sound right now. First one to reply will be the challenge.
I'd like a Cave Story theme.

I can work on getting sounds for it.

I like it!

Thanks. I spent more time on the top wallpaper than I did anything else. I just couldn't get the screen to sit how I wanted at all or at a good resolution.

Then tinkered with the colors for a while too. Glad they were what you wanted.


How about that splash screen though?

When I use a theme, my HBL freezes. I go into settings and go back to the main page, it lags for about 4-5 seconds. Is this a bug or something with the themes themselves. I was thinking that maybe the themes were heavy on my O3DS XL, using all the sounds, music and backgrounds.

No I haven't heard about that problem. I know when you exit out of settings it saves your hbl.cfg file but that should only take half a second. Could you try deleting the hbl.cfg file? is inside the gridlauncher folder. Also try with a different SD card. When I first started using this launcher before it had custom themes I had a similar problem, loading folders took a lot of time for example. I re formatted my sd card and deleted a lot of unnecessary files I had and I haven't had any problems to date.

Has boot sounds, all sound effects (I know that the back sound needs to be lowered a bit) and music.

How did you change the L and R buttons on the touch screen? Tried that on my theme, but didn't really work.

Thanks! I've put probably 6 hours into this theme already... but yeah, I meant it when I said super WIP, I haven't decided on what I want to do for the appbackground quite yet, but I might do it tomorrow.
I'm also waiting for the page arrows to become editable so I can make the background arrows not invisible (which is fine, but also makes the page indicators invisible
As for the .SMDH files, I might make a thread for alternate .SMDH files for people like me who changing them a single place to find them. Or someone else make one haha.

How did you change the L and R buttons on the touch screen? Tried that on my theme, but didn't really work.
It's just part of the background, I made the arrows 0% visible through the launcher's theme config. Unfortunately this makes the page indicators (the circles at the bottom) invisible as well (excluding the current page one).

I'd like a Cave Story theme.

I wanted to make a Cave Story one after I finished my FE one. Hopefully I can get around to it.

EDIT: I added appbackgrounds and I updated the original download link!
