I was able to download this theme from another site, straight to my PS3, it had alba as the creator, is that right?

Yes but it might be the older version!

Evolution-One
When should we be expecting the next version of this?:)

Is it OK to make a couple of positive suggestions here?
  1. It may just be me but the new sounds that you've added seem far louder than any other XMB sounds, Anyway to lower them?
  2. I don't think the notification box works as well as the earlier plain version. The red just doesn't fit in with the reserved colouring of the icons for me. Any chance of a choice between the two?
It may well just be me thinking these things and apart from that...I love it! Thanks Alba!!!

Well I'm still experimenting with everything so I might make some changes but i don't want to make like x different versions of it, but I agree on the sound part and I'm looking at how i can make them better because they're quite loud indeed :)
 
Ok I'm going to improve the sounds tomorrow whenever I got the time and I also like to know if you guys have any requests for backgrounds or specific cars or things like that :)

I got a few fixes to do then as some of you told me but if you want something else, just say it here and I'll see what I can do :)

and the croatia one that was requested a while ago (i forgot sorry!)

Alba, you rule, thank you very much 👍
 
Alba, I downloaded the newest version this past weekend. I hadn't updated since 1.0.

WOW!!!! That is amazing, and the sounds. Excellent!!!

You have an excellent product here my friend.



Of course, after this I thought I would go out and find some PSP themes. They seemed to have such a habit if stealing ideas I thought I may even find a ripoff of this one.

Fortunately, no one has thought to steal your great theming for the PSP. Unfortunately, no one has your dedication to quality on that system. Some even design backgrounds with a highlight where the XMB crosses and miss. You would think they would fix that. Or they launch it full of problems, then create various different versions to correct obvious mistakes.

None of them are anywhere close to this quality. Thank you, sir.👍 :cheers:
 
I'm planning to port it to the PSP soon actually, the only problem is that i got a lot of work and I still need to finish my MGS4 theme (coz it's been idling for a while on that part)

I've got an update for this theme coming soon with some new backgrounds, toned down sounds and some other fixes :)

I'll try to have them done ASAP.


btw, thanks for all the nice words guys! :)
 
It is a testament to your ability when I get all the official themes Sony has to offer and still come back to yours.
 
I am still loving your theme. Since I got it I haven't ever changed (apart from when updating it). I keep using the backrounds too mainly because (although they are great!) my TV doesn't like the normal desktop wallpaper sizes, it needs much bigger. Your wallpapers included are the right size although I must say that the cars included aren't exactly my cup of tea (except perhaps the R8). Is there anywhere that I could find large enough images, or perhaps even you yourself could make a wallpaper especially for me?
 
Google imaging "Aston Martin Wallpaper" brings up some stuff. Very little seems to be widescreen, but you can crop the image to what you want your background to be.

But since Alba is using images from Prologue you won't get any Aston Martins in the same style. You will only be able to use images from other games or photos, at least until GT5 comes out.
 
I found one which fits perfectly with the whole theme and the colour etc. Thanks for your help!

This is what I love about the themes. You can switch out your wallpaper and keep the rest.

EDIT: I need someone with a PSP and a decent camera, so we can test the theme together and make sure everything is good, PM me and i'll give you my msn so we can sort this **** out :)

I have a PSP and I can even do a screen capture on my PC if you want. I also have a nice 5mp camera.

However, I do not have MSN. My wife might have one though.

Oh, and the fact that I will be out of town for two weeks in February may hold us up.

Sure, I'll post it here.

That is nice.
 
do you have AIM or something? :p

I don't think it should take too long to make a port to the PSP so, if not then i'll wait or find someone else :D
 
I have a PSP...by camera what do you mean? I could take a photo of it easily if you want? My MSN is in my profile I think, if not PM me.
 
Just a decent thing to make preview pictures to fix the bugs or so that could happen, that's all :)
 
alba, only one icon bugs me in the whole set, and it's the wheel with 5 spokes. It might be symmetrical vertically down the middle, but the 5 spokes are nowhere near evenly spaced. By that I mean they should all be at 72 degrees to eachother. It would be nice to get that sorted out, and then we'd have what I think is almost the perfect theme. Honestly, it's still by far the best theme I've seen so far.

Looking forward to the PSP theme too, athough that doesn't get much use these days unfortunately!
 
Guys, this is the best theme I've seen so far for the PS3. Not kidding, I love it! Awesome job to the person or persons who made it.
 
this is the best other then the Original PS3 theme lol

i love the sounds and icons. wish it had many more different backgrounds. it be nice to see bg from all the cars in GT5P :-P too much work, and huge DL i suppose
 
It should adapt to pretty much any background, really :P

I'm working on more i got a few more cars almost done and some other abstract things, all of them will be in the new version which i hope to have done pretty soon :)

tell me if you have any suggestions!
 
Alba, how can the volume be turned down for the theme? This theme is much louder than others we have.

Thanks again for your tremendous effort!
 
you can't, i'm toning down the sounds myself for the next version, don't worry :)
 
really nice find there, oner ;)

I'll try to make something out of those :D
