Theme: Flatline (WIP)

EctoOne

@mattrixk thanks for the tip. I've been on that site before but it wasn't that obvious to me how to download fonts. I thought they were for supposed to be used embedded in websites. Figured it out though now.

@ectoone No worries. Glad you worked it out. I mostly used Roboto on my themes, but I used some fancier ones too (as you can see in my Core theme https://github.com/mattrixk/es-theme-core. I might actually finish it one day).

@mattrixk Huh, it's 9 months old and I can't remember if I have seen that before. Looks nice.

Anyways, I changed the fonts to go more with the basic line theme. Although I'm still not happy with the secondary font. But all fonts I tested have been either too wide to fit in the metadata section or too tiny to read. And I changed the colors a little bit, because some where to dark to read from a distance.
I also replaced the preview images in the first post.

Update:

It now has a complete text based carousel (Thanks again to @jdrassa for implementing that feature).
changed the Carousel font
changed the metadata font to the same as metadata label
changed description font
changed grid view to have the same look as the carousel (four games)

I think this might work for my R2D2 build I'm slowly working on. I'm going to have to grab it

@simpleethat if you change the colors it might fit. I just did a quick test, and you might need to change some font sizes.

@ectoone Oh man, once I get it finished I think that might be perfect

@ectoone Okay... I'm a little embarassed by this but how do I go about downloading it? Also what values did you get use for the colors?

EctoOne

@simpleethat When you click the link, there is a green button on the right side that says 'Clone or Download'. Hit that and a small window appears under it with the option 'Download ZIP'.

And I don't quite understand your question about the color values. Do you want to know what values I used for the white/blue variant or where to input them or what?

These are the values for the white/blue variant and they have to be put at the top of the theme.xml file in the ZIP. There should be a section for it.

 <backgroundColor>E0E6F2</backgroundColor>
 <mainColor>0F2088</mainColor>
 <highlightColor>CC3433</highlightColor>
 <secondaryColor>888888</secondaryColor>

@ectoone Thanks, you assumed correctly about the blue/white values. I think this is going to be perfect for my R2D2 build
