Hey everyone I just wanted to share the camera template that i created, tell me how you like it!
You can use it for taking half and half pictures, like half of one persons head and then half of someone elses, its quite entertaining!
**EDIT!** For everyone that doesnt know how to use the camera templates! Heres what you do!!
1. Unzip the attachment that you download off here.
2. Copy it over the UnZiped file to your device to: My Device > My Documents > Templates.
3. Open the camera attachment.
4. Then go to Picture theme and go though your choices till you see one that is Half and Half!
5. This is very important!!!! POST THE GOOFY PICTURES YOU TAKE HERE!! lol

O Sorry for my late response, Glad you guys like this! I might consider making some more later on then! Any ideas for some? or pictures to work with?
how about
a wanted terrorist photo something like on the FBI website.
a milk carton, seen these in movies in america missing people are put on milk cartons.
US president podium, might have to use a George bush outline.
one of those terrorist videos, similar to the us podium.
a goldfish, just cut the face out shame u cant put a orange tinge to the new photo it takes would blend better.
some sort of alien, ohhh a klingon or frengi ? oh theres another idea captain of the enterprise ?
some perverted guy in rain coat (aka dirty old flasher)
or a realy nerdy guy, also a muscle guy ?
lmao one of these has to be a good idea, the templates ive already found have provided heaps of entertainment.
Is 640x480 the maximum size?
Hi,
all the templates i've found here or on other sites have always been 640x480 in size.
Is it possible to create a 1280x1024 (1.3 MPixel) template?
ok so im guessing the "how about requests" offer has now expired.
oh well i still picked up the 100 pack a few days ago.

hi there mate ive made a few now so im happy to make some for you, but meet me half way and post the pictures you want as a template here and ill be happy to do it..
I'm making a site, called market4android which you developers can feature your apps/roms on, etc. I'd love for you guys to contact me so we can get the ball rolling. It's a great domain that gets a lot of search engine hits, so if you're looking to get your name out there and get your apps out there, then please PM me and let me know what you have and all that cool stuff!
The site should be online for most of the world. If it is not, give it a while because it may still need to update on world servers.
Check it out, leave feedback, etc, and developers! hit me up and let me know if I can post your ROMs on the site. Don't want nobody getting mad at me!
Reminds me of a site that I frequent called XDA.
Maybe I am missing the point? Are you simply offering to host files?

You'll never get anywhere waiting for others to send you content. If you want to post a rom, post info, screenshots, etc. and link out to the post where they can get it and more info.
This may be a dumb question, but here goes anyway....
It's not hard at all to get an app included on the Android Market. What advantage are you offering over going that route?
So far I've only written a few Android apps, and they were both custom jobs for clients that would not be at all interesting to the general public. (And they have a LOT of tweaking left to do before I'd call them anything I'm proud of. I'm new to Android, it'll take awhile for me to catch up with the stuff I've done for WinMo and PalmOS.)
But I've considered diving into some more generally appealing projects, and the Android Market currently offers me both the ability to distribute for free, and the ability to monetize my efforts if I decide to go that route. Either route gives me pretty widespread exposure.
As a developer, my main question would be: "What extras are you offering that the existing marketplace leaves out?" (i.e. How can you make me more money? And/or give me wider exposure?)
I don't think he is making a place to distribute apps (at least that's not what I got), I thought he was making a place to be like "hey look what's going on in the dev community, check out this app and this rom, etc."

So a review site?
That could be very, very cool. Only trick is building a large readership.....
With that in place, it could very easily be something that developers want to pay close attention to.

I'd definitely be letting developers have publisher accounts so they can work on getting exposure from my site, etc. It's not totally about me distributing apps...
Try to picture this: I can get traffic. Traffic coming to my site and seeing your apps there, your ROMs there, etc, want to download them, etc, well, not only gets you not only exposure, but income from the apps as well seeing as how they're downloading you stuff because they found info and reviews on it on my site.
Yes, the market would definitely be the #1 way to go, but what harm can it do to get some more exposure to your stuff? as well as get user reviews and the income that youre concerned about?

I will create mirrors for your files etc, and yes, you are missing the point. I wasn't 100% absolute sure in the direction I was heading with this, but I am offering you the exposure of traffic that comes to my site to see your apps etc, when they may not have ever noticed your app in the marketplace. User reviews, developer releases and all kinds of cool **** can happen here if you're willing to crack the shell away a little bit and accept my offer of free exposure to your stuff.
Why the hell would anyone pass up free? Beats me.

For the record, my comments were not meant to be disparaging, but to help you figure that out.
I'm not going to go into how old I am, but I'm not exactly wet behind the ears. I was making a living in the "computer field" since long before anything called a "web browser" ever existed. The first time I heard about Mosaic, my reaction was "eh, sounds like gopher with pictures. big deal." (It wasn't a great article....)
There are two main reasons why projects fail. The first, and by far the greatest, is because the people starting that project never ask themselves, and come up with a clear answer to, "what problem am I trying to solve?"....
The second reason is that they fail to ask themselves "Is my solution something people will actually use?".
If you have good answers to those two questions, then the rest is just the legwork of getting it done. If you don't have good answers to those questions, then no amount of work will produce a successful outcome.
Sorry if I sound harsh, just trying to be helpful.

Not harsh at all and I comprehend your points. Maybe my tone sounded harsh when it was simply factual and jsut telling my purpose.
I feel that the purpose of this site I opened is good, and it can be very useful. But just like any other good thing, it usually cannot be done by one person. Support for the project is always a plus, and it can be made to be an excellent resource for people who are green on both sides, that want to get into modding android devices.
I dont think that it is a waste of my time, but in order for it to make it to where I'd like it to be, it can definitely use all the support and input that it can get. Thats why I brought the whole subject up, here. There are lots of developers here and even I am new to a lot of the stuff here, and I feel that it would be a great asset to a lot fo folks here if you jsut give it a chance.

Oh, I never meant to imply it was a waste of time. Nothing of the sort. I think the Android platform has a huge amount of potential. For the people developing the platform, for the people developing apps to run on top of it, and for people creating the entire ecosystem that will surround it.
I guess what I was trying to do was get you thinking about a statement that you ended up making yourself. That you weren't 100% sure about the direction you wanted to take this. Whatever direction you decide on, I think your chances of success are much greater if you have a clear idea of what that direction is.
That said, I like your idea. I'd love to hear more about what you have in mind.

Got an article coming soon on the best battery app I found, along with some info from the developer. This should be live within a day or two.
I am looking for more stuff to write articles about, and it will involve some email communication between us so I can get the most accurate info onto the site.
Anyone want to be the one of the first few people to get featured on the site? PM me your email address so I can contact you

well an app review site would be great as i tend to follow users input when i download apps, and the input in the Market is just crap .. what some user find to be a bad app could actualy be a very good app for others. i sometime do it myself when i download an app , i look for user rating and comments. and decide wether to download the app or not, based on the user ratings..
The other thing would be a app request, meaning i been loking for an app that will play FLAC or AAC music files, i found 2 , 1 is from XDA ( a good app but the GUI is must to be desired ) the other is a cheap app that sometimes plays sometimes dont.. LOL
if someone would make good app for this i would be willing to pay for it 20.00 if i had to ...
The point is i would love a place that i could go to and request an app or suggest ideas for an app..
my 2 cents

You're able t request apps and stuff there, I honestly havent set that section up because I am working on other content first. You can possibly post a new thread requesting someone code something for you, but I am not sure on the pricing of their work, etc. Let me work on getting some good app coders on my side and then I'll open up the requests section.
I created an app that uses the facebook api that allows you to see the location of friends that are sharing there location with you.
Location sharing is fully controllable, you get to set when you location is being shared and which friends can see it.
None of my facebook friends have android phones, lames I know, but I need someone to help me test. I put the app on the market but I am not getting any feedback there.
So, I am looking for a volunteer that wouldn't mind having me as a facebook friend and would mind me temporaily seeing there location. You would also be able to see mine.
The app is named Longitude, it's on the market if you would like to check it out before hand.
Thanks in advance.
whats the name of the app?

No offense and I think you wrote a great app ...but (here it comes LOL) looks like a "stalker" app to me.
I'm sure you mean no harm with your app, but my god, with the amount of information that is out there about any given person these days, do you need to know where I live? I think NOT!
Granted, I know my mom's name and can look it up online and even see a picture of the house I grew up in, but..where does it stop? Sorry to use this thread as a personal rant, but really, there is just too much info out there these days...maybe I'm getting old.
Again, I think your app is great from the screenshots I saw. I've yet to get into any mapping code myself. I just don't like the "Big Brother" aspect of it.

I took inspiration from Google Latitude, I liked Latitude but I use my email mostly for business and thought that an app like this would be more fitting with Facebook. There was no such app so I decided to make it.
I completely understand where you are coming from though, it is a somewhat scary app. When I first starting working on it I was just going to broadcast the location to all friends that used the app.
Then I thought about it and realized that I wouldn't want my location available to everyone all the time. So I made it so you can turn the service off.
Then I thought that I don't want everyone on my friends list being able to see where I am either so I made it so only selected friends can view your location. I also do not log any location information.
But, I think the benefits of such an app can outweigh the negatives, and if people are responsible about sharing their location then it shouldn't be able to be used as a stalker tool.
Hello! Thanks for stopping by! I'm making an app with a friend of mine and we both are terrible at making graphics (we both code). The game is a simple dice game yet what sets it apart from other dice games is online play and a level of polish above the rest. Our code is pretty polished, even in its humble beginnings, so we are looking for a graphics designer who is willing to help show to users a polished interface.
We don't care how much experience you have as long as you're willing to learn (we can't teach you though obviously). The only thing we ask for is that you give at least 3 hours a week to the project. I believe that is not a lot to ask for. We are doing this project as a hobby and we hope to add another member (or two) to our team. Once again thank's for your time.
If you would like to know more about the app please post in the thread so other people can benefit from the information and if you have more personal questions feel free to PM me.
I'm actually interested. if it's not too time consuming I will gladly give it a try.
you can take a look at my deviant art profile to see what graphic works i normally do

send me an email @ [email protected] if you want to contact me.
i do lots of traditional paper and pen design then move it over to digital paint.
let me know if you need some help and what your ideas and i'll toss up a few test designs you can look over.
i do very little in terms of actual 3d renders and modeling.

not hijacking, but it'd be really cool to see resources designers kicking around here make. which could then be used in projects by devs. just putting something out there will encourage others to use it. ie. icons and so on.

The only problem with that is that some people don't like other people to use their work. It's the same thing with code (i.e. open source or not). In any case it would be better to submit work you would like to share on Open Clip Art instead of a thread that would be hard to upkeep and search through.

The time it will take depends on you're proficiency with creating buttons backgrounds and stuff like that. Right now I have three people that want to work on this and I always had in mind to have different themes for this app. I'm going to ask Aoi_sora9x if he won't mind other people making other different themes. I will get back to you as soon as I can.

i thoroughly disagree! so if a designer didn't want to share, they're not forced to post whatever they've made on here. and as xda is a large community, you never know who could be reading about your work. maybe a new forum would be best.
I think the main reason is that XDA is a developer forum and not a designer forum?
artists and designers mostly will post on art forums, like how developers will only share stuffs on developer forums. When i wanna share a new icon set, XDA is not the first place i would think of. :/
