Default [5.5G/Hybrid] Basic Batteries w/percentage

Modified the batteries from theislander's hybrid theme to have percent and to fit my colors better.



BatteriesGreenBlue-aldog.rar
BatteriesBW-aldog.rar
BatteriesGreenBlueInvertedText-aldog.rar
BatteriesGreen3D-aldog.rar
alansbatteriesSharpGreenGradient.rar
NOTE: 2 of the files are marked as 100%. pic24335 and pic24336. I don't know if they both should be, if someone would like to enlighten me that'd be great.


REASON: I downloaded a dozen+ battery packs with percentages and tried them on slightly modified hybrid theme and the percents were practically unreadable. I know few people will like my color choice, but it's to fit a theme I'm working on. But it's extremely easy for me to customize the colors so if someone requests I'll most likely fill the request.

I'm not sure exactly what you mean.
You want the battery to be white and the percent to be black when it's uncharged and
you want the battery to be black and the percent to be white when it's charged? I can do that but what about the percents in between? Like when it's at 50% what would you want the battery to be and what would you want the text to be.



*edit*
I could do this

but I'm not sure that's what you want.

Thanks.
They may seem like the text might be hard to read when the batteries fuller, but I think that's mainly my computer messing up text, because it's fully legible when it's on my ipod (running a mac with bootcamp for windows, and if you've ever done that you should know that when booted into windows text looks horrible)

Ya I just needed something with percentages for the hybrid/touch hack. and everything that looked 3d looked like crap on the hybrid/touch themes. so I had to stick with basic.

can you do it so that the part of the number that is in the dark part of the battery is white and the other part is black? Like do both numbers have to be the same color or can you splice colors together so its easy to read?

Maybe the green is too dark.

1st draft was lighter and it didn't pop enough on the ipod screen. The contrast of the two colors works good now on my ipod even if it does look dark on the screen.
But if you're talking about personal preference you could be right

I might have just thought of a way to do it (it's doable, just have to be able to automate the process). do you want the whole thing to be black and white or do you want grayscale?

I uploaded the rar files for the batteries, didn't realize my attachment didn't work.
And I added the black and white one. It was quite a chore to get everything straight but it's going to be so much easier now to work with my files.
Let me know if that's what you meant.

I made a version of the green/blue one that has the black and white inverted text and it's on my first post now (no screenshot)

To ipodloser, after a weird reaction to the new batteries, I decided to load the bw one's on my itouch/hybrid theme. And I find out that flat black and flat white don't work so it's going to have to be grayscale to a point. So I'll work on that and fix both the bw and the new green blue



*EDIT*
All 3 batteries are now working. The only problem is the bw and newgreen show a 1 pixel white outline. And I have no clue why. But they are all quite legible.

Added some 3d green batteries
