Thanks to you patrons, especially Mr_Barkan (reddit) and kaosnews (discord) for their donation, I was able to get a new iPod!
I pounced on this pretty nice dead drive and batt 7th and added in my mods from the previous pod! Good thing it was also from AU so shipping was small as well. I suppose I lucked out, great timing ahha.
All that's left before I am able to continue them...

Went on a small trip and took some backgrounds, devices look really clean due to the bokeh!
A pack of 24 image files for different screens and such.
Enjoy!
iPods are a pretty cool world of modding, beautiful timeless design, while breaking free of services, notifications and all that distracting junk.
Seeing a 20 year old device working 100% to this date, and even better with big batteries that last a month and 500+ GBs of new, flash storage is such a charm, similar to admiring a timepiece.
I ended up making a guide to help those looki...

New Version of the Wii Theme that looks like a switch.
Mostly improvements to the dark version, I settled for using the switch's bright highlighted buttons to improve readability of the text in settings since I can't change it to white, and other similar improvements to contrast in the dark version.
New stuff for both light and dark versions:

Firs try Dark Mode for the sWiich theme. There seem to be a lot of artefacts around round objects and thin lines. Like the font and the main circle buttons.
I also couldn't change the settings and tooltip font color, so will think about what to do there. I suppose its usable for now though!

New Home screen for Infomatrix U! Still retains full customisability.
I actually made this home screen 100% on the iPod itself using Rockbox's text editor and RockPaint. Was quite fun.
I personally prefer this view over the list view before, you still get the list view before when browsing files and songs, but on the home menu you see this. Its just a...

So I got USB Loader GX for my old wii,
I wanted a Switch, but didn't really have a need for it as I don't game much.
Turns out it can be themed, so I tried doing a bit out of curiosity only to end up taking it all the way haha
Come test it out! Let me know if anything could be improved!

Wondering what you guys think of this? I've been trying to find something new to do with Infomatrix U's home screen
Revisiting my first iPod theme "Infomatrix" and giving it a massive upgrade!
Theres refined icons, the same great font from FreshOS, and it's now FULLY user customisable straight on the iPod! All while keeping the same retro-futuristic and information-dense look from the original beige theme.
Change colours, the background, and even the line selector. You can completely change and p...

Here's the dark version of FreshOS updated with the improvements and bug fixes seen in the new light version!
Changes:
Here's that FreshOS Light Plus you were looking for, with added features for patrons!
I've just released FreshOS Light to the Rockbox Site!
Others can now download for free.
For you patrons though, I'm almost ready to release the plus version of it, though I'm still packing it up for upload. Look forward to get extra functionality such as:

I would just like to hear some feedback and thoughts about how it is currently, so I could fix them up before release.
Of course, I'll add extras for patrons! Maybe a pack of icons in single-colour outline style, and accent colour customisation.
Would love to hear your thoughts about Fre...

Sorry for keeping you waiting! I had a very busy week of assessments but its all done now!
This version continues to refine small details and fix some visual bugs.
New Changes
This version mainly continues to refine small details:
Made some quick iOS 14 Widgets after discovering the Widgy app, which lets you create custom widgets. It's pretty powerful!
This runs on iPhones and iPads with iOS 14. Download the Widgy app to add them in!

This time round i've made a lot of little changes to finally fix up many odd small details, adjusting colours to be more comfortable to view with the light mode.
New Changes
This version mainly continues replacing the dark mode sprites:
Sorry to keep you waiting! My schedule has cleared up and it's now time to head to the light.

Apologies for the lack of activity!
I have a bunch of assessments to get done (still a student). I'll need to finish those off before getting back to the much more fun stuff: making things for you!

I've successfully overpowered rockbox with my theme.
As it was larger than 1mb, the Rockbox site didn't want to accept it. So it requires a manual install.
You should be able to follow the steps to get it installed all good though, so head over to the rockbox installer or theme site to get it installed!Enjoy!
I'll be busy over the next week due to assessments and pr...

I was quite busy this week so there's not as much changes here. Still need to fix bold font and a few other known issues.
After that fix though, I reckon it's ready to release and maybe move on to something new.

Nearing completion now. In the refinement stage now, do let me know if you see anything off. Of course, this theme uses very "not-intended by rockbox" methods, so I might not be able to fix everything.
Also yes I did decide to change the name. The theme is still called iPodOS in the files though, this will need some rewiring to change, so I'll do this in a later version.
