Theme "Orange"

Here's a weird and bright theme called "Orange".
Because I like the color orange.
Current version: 3

Official description:
A bright and highly saturated theme in which everything is in the color orange and there are lots of oranges, too! The sky is orange and cloudy, the blocks are oranges in square shape, the conveyor belts are orange peels, you are colored orange yourself, and so on.


Credits:
Some parts I have drawn myself, and some parts of the theme are taken from the themes Cloudscape and Pixel Castle by Tedium. Background imagery is derivative artwork based on photos and images from Vera Kratochvil, Chris S and Daniel Gregory Benoy. Read the “License” file included in the download for detailed infos.

Hello,

This is funny theme which brings a nice touch to the game. Orange might not be my favourite colour but I still like this theme. It's always nice to get more content. :)

I agree that that spikes could be replaced with something more orange-like thing. I like the background but I got this idea of adding a slight orange texture to it. It might work. Also you should include some license information about your theme and the sources you used.

Thanks for the nice theme. :D

Hello Wuzzy,

It's a really good looking colourful theme. :D

If you want I could upload it to the addon system, but you'd have to add a Credits file in which you properly credit the work you derived it from.
I assume that the images of the oranges used are public domain? Or an other open license?

Wuzzy {l Wrote}:I don't know if I like the background. Note that the screenshot does not show the entire background.

Perhaps it's best to change the background to something a bit more desaturated, increasing the contrast with the things in the foreground, players and blocks.

Also I want to note that the Pixel Castle theme was made by leovilok (link). ;)
Which on his turn used art made by surt (link).

I think you should look at default wallpapers of GNU/Linux distros, they always have colorful things that are pretty nice, I'm sure you can find one that is mostly orange.

Hi MCMic and that's a great idea. I looked into default GNOME wallpapers and here's what I found:

Terraform-orange-scaled.jpg

Spaceflare-supernova-scaled.jpg

They are under CC-BY-SA but I couldn't find exact license informations for single wallpaper. Also they are scaled down just showing them for you guys. :)

Just for you to know, feel free to do anything with the theme you want, I won't impose copyright restrictions on the stuff I've made. Some stuff is derivate work from other themes, but I already mentioned that in the first post.

I still really need to find a good background, I am not happy with neither the current one nor these GNOME backgrounds.
I still have no good idea for the spikes block. Do you have any?

As far I know, this theme still works correctly with 0.4.1.

Hi,

Thanks for the update!

I have a minor versioning problem: the version number "2" was used to make the theme compatible with resizable blocks. So can I use the version number "3" in the addon repository?
