[?/1.2] Eragon Theme
OK, here's my second theme, based off the movie Eragon. Not the greatest movie, but I liked the books, so I decided to make a theme. Please, here is not the place for comments on the movie or the book, unless it has something to do with improving the theme.

Pictures are from the Internet, but not from anyone on this site. I created everything myself.

Here's a rundown of the changes:

Battery: Saphira's egg
Title bar: Eragon with lightning
Progress bar: Saphira breathing fire, and lightning. Both have the word ERAGON on them
Calendar: background of blue fire
Do not disconnect: Zar'roc and another sword crossed through the letter E
Rating stars: Saphira's egg
Scroll bar: Orange with blue fire background
Solitaire: Back is Saphira's eye
Other small images like shuffle, repeat, etc. are just different colors

The zip file only contains the images that I modded so that they don't interfere with the video graphics. The first zip file is with ID numbers, the second with index numbers. Index numbers are for firmware 1.2.

The previews, once again, aren't the best, but they give a good enough general idea.

Also, there may be some problem with the progress bars and the scroll bars. I think I fixed it, but I haven't tested it on my iPod yet. Hopefully someone will try it out and tell me!

Comments, suggestions, anything welcome.

UPDATE: New previews that look much better.

I did think of using the sword as the progress bar, but it didn't look too good, because the amount of space wasn't enough. It ended up with a really short hilt and a really long blade. So I decided to use Saphira blowing flame instead.

Thanks.

...And you should consider, for a later version..., having a color or a texture or something that kinda relates one picture to another, cuz blue and orange don't go that well together....(imo)

Yeah I see what you mean. There wasn't a whole lot of pictures when I made this theme anyways, so I had to make do with whatever I had. I probably did a bit too much with this theme. I used orange because that's the color of fire, which is a major thing with Saphira and everything.

Of course the progress bars could be improved. I couldn't really think up of anything really original. I tried the sword but it didn't work out. Any ideas maybe?
