Hello developers, modders and everyone else!
Who am I?
I'm the guy behind the graphics in many of the Cloudy rom threads.
(In case you were in doubt)
Why am I doing this?
After seeing many use my Cloudy thread graphics for personal use (for example for YouTube thumbnails),
I have decided to release my library of graphics assets used. This includes all logos, backgrounds, text,
screenshots, mockups etc. used in the big banners, and all logos and texts used in the small section banners.
I have recently updated the G2 banners with UX4 for CloudyG2 3.x, after seeing a couple of users attempt
to recreate it. (These are currently not in use yet. Have a look!) This will make it easier for anyone who
wants to use any of my graphics, and it also allows anyone to continue to update the graphics if I choose not to.
The Photoshop files and all may be a little confusing at first, and they are, at least some of them. The most
up-to-date ones are pretty organized, but some of the older ones might be a little messy.
It might also seem like many logos and backgrounds are missing.That is because they are in the PSD files.
Try to open all the PSD files and have a look around at what is inside!
What do you get?
Below you can see all the png files (except for some Cloudy logos)
The PSD folder contains all the Photoshop files used to create the banners and some of the logos and screenshots.

Legal notices
As longs you are not violating LG's terms of service and whatever, you will be alright.
You are also allowed to use these graphics for anything you want, but I'd recommend contacting
me before modifying it to fit another rom or something like that. I might even help out with it.
You also do not need to give me any credit! (Though you are very welcome to do so!)

MEDIAFIRE
I might update the file whenever I make major changes to any of the graphics.
Need graphics for your thead?
If you like what you see, feel free to contact me, and I could brighten up your thread!

Is it possible for us to have those shiny panels on android?
Then we can place icons/shortcut on top of it to make them stand out?
*Note*
I remembered i could do that thing with window mobile phones
Seems like nobody knows the answer to this, please share knowledge if you have an idea
if those are just png files in android then I'm pretty sure you can but you or someone would have to make them look like that as in coloring the old image file from whatever apk those apply to then reload the edited apk back onto your android phone. So I'm saying yes with a more experienced package creator. I myself have been doing my own editing and picture creating, just haven't figured out how to properly compact the apk yet.

Android Creators/developers/etc... look to look into something like this
So we can make the home screen icons look even more stand out with the shade/shiny panels...
The original screen is still cool but it a bit plain to my opinion

Howdy, chumps. Before you get going on designing an Android app, it's important to know what kind of resources are available. Many people head straight to AI and just start designing from the ground up without knowing about all the amazing recourses available from Google. These recourses are going to focus only on the Graphical UI aspect of the app. So if you came here looking for technical stuff, I'm calling the cops.
While these are supposed to help you get started on your app design, they're also just a great source of free graphics, fonts and templates that can be used for anything.
I'm not saying you'll be a millionaire overnight but it can happen a lot sooner than you think.

Material Design Guidelines
So if you're wanting to embrace the material design standard to make your app look beautiful, this is where you start. The guideline will reference everything that you need to know to make your app look just as good as one from Google.
Icon Library
The icons library contains every icon that you would find within the stock Android system UI. They're great looking icons that you can use for anything. Download the .zip file that contains all of the icons because that's going to come in very handy as you begin to design your app.
Device Metrics
If you ever need to reference the exact size and resolution of a specific android device, this is where you will go. This section is always be updated with the newest devices and their deimensions.
Roboto & Noto fonts
Roboto is the default font for material design. If you want everything to look great without taking time to search through thousands of fonts, just use Roboto as your default. It will also tell you when to use white or black colored fonts.
Sticker sheets & icons
Here you'll find "stickers" which are basically premade graphical interfaces pieces. Everything from volume sliders to shadow effects can be downloed for free. This will help you put together a mockup of what you want your app to look like. Everything will be compatible with Adobe Illustrator which is most likely what you'll be working with most of the time.
Color Palette
Bookmar this page because you'll be coming back here a lot. This is the material design color palette. Pretty much any assortment of colors from this page will look good together.
There is so much more in Google's design resource site that it's basically a wonderland full of goodies. But if you're just starting out, use these sections to get going. You can also check out all the other great stuff that have at design.google.com/resources
Android Design Resources - Best Websites
Greetings people of Earth, hahaha I'm not really an alien that was just a prank! So there are several different websites that I always go to for great design resources for Android. There are some fantastic free graphics, fonts, icons, animations and all kids of stuff to find through on the internet. I'm going to save you some time searching on Google and list some of my go-to websites that I use whenever I'm in need of inspiration or design resources.
Material Palette
This website is brilliant! You get a pallet of a bunch of different material design colors. You select two colors that you want to go with and it will generate a preview of how they will look in an Android UI. After you find the look that you want it will generate a color palette that you can download. It will even label the colors as what they should be used for to obtain the look you've created. Bookmark this website because you will be using this a lot.

Flaticon
This is the best resource for basic flat icons. You can get icon packs anywhere but what sets the website apart is the ability to go through and add all the icons you need to your cart, then download them all as a pack. Everything is free to download. You'll have the option to download in several different file types depending on what you need. There are trillions of icons in here so no matter what you're looking for, you'll find it on this website.

Google Design
Google Design has so much stuff to look through and it's all completely free. Templates, fonts, icons, stickers, design guides, everything you need to get started with designing apps for Android.
https://design.google.com/resources/
Materialup
Material up is all about material design. This is a community driven website where you can browse projects uploaded by other users. There's so many cool tools, templates and graphics to explore on this site. My favorite section where I spend the most time in is the freebies > UI Kits section. Check it out
http://www.materialup.com/
MediaLoot
This is a pretty new website that I immediately started using. It's similar to Materialup with the type of content that's available but it has a subscription options that get's you unlimited access to everything on the website. Right now that subscription is $14/mo. I have not been able to find a better deal anywhere else on the internet.

So those are my personal favorite websites that I use on a regular basis. What about you?
Designing Your App Icon
Get an Idea
Alright so you've got your app idea and maybe a basic wireframe layout. You sit there thinking "What is the perfect icon to represent my 'Goat in heat detector app'"? Well let's start by thinking about what is the simplest image that gives some sort of representation of what you're all about. It could be a mascot, a letter, a prop or anything that sounds good to you. For this, we will want a goat engulfed in flames as a play on "Goat in heat". It's clever and tasteful.
Design Guidelines
Once you have an idea, you'll be eager to whip something up in AI. But wait just one second, space cop. There are tools to help you design your icon within Google's material design standards. It's very simple and it will help you make a great looking app icon.
Start by downloading the "Product icons" sticker sheet from here.
Download Icon Sticker Sheet
This will provide you with an outline to design in. Check out this brilliant and quick guide on how to use the icon sticker sheet.
