Themes for Tumblr, Wordpress, and other resources by Gabrielle Wee.

I made a few different Monument Valley icons for my desktop folders. You can download those here - click on the file name and then click “View Raw” to download. To use on a folder, right click the folder, click “Get Info”, and drag the new icon into the old icon in the top left corner of the window (a green plus icon should pop up).

I also wasn’t crazy about the Maya 2015 icon on my dock, so I create a version without the background and the text. If you like it, you can download it here. For use with LiteIcon.

I’ve only tested these on Yosemite, but they should work fine on Mavericks as well.

Please like and reblog if you use these!

I just did a mini revamp for my nameplate site and vectored a bunch of custom minimal line icons. They’re pretty simple, but would you guys like to use them? I’d put out a zip for download with 32px/64px PNGs, a PSD, and SVG files. Anybody interested?

Arketyp for iPhone

I decided to release Arketyp a few days earlier than I originally planned! I’m so sorry everybody had to wait so long, though! :(

Arketyp is a complete icon theme for iOS 7 and above, as flat and minimal as possible. Springboard, notification center, and settings icons have all been themed.

The package includes four additional springboard icon masks and two additional control center masks. For best results, hide icon labels and use Source Sans Pro as your system font.

Arketyp for iPad is still in the works! I haven’t released it yet because there’s some issues with the lockscreen notifications displaying properly.

Add http://repo.elletricity.com to your Cydia sources to install this theme and its extras.

Supports iPod Touch 5, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPhone 5S, iPhone 5C, and iPhone 6, on iOS 7+. I don’t have iOS 8, so there are a lot of missing icons for those of you who are up-to-date. I missed the window to update iOS 8 so I will be unable to test icons until there is a jailbreak for iOS 8.2. If you would like to help me out with renaming icons and you have iOS 8, please email me at [email protected]. People who help me out will get an early release of the theme I'm currently working on.

Possibly a companion theme to Arketyp. I'm hoping to release both next Monday, March 16! I was delaying release of the theme to finish up the iPad theme but I have decided not to delay any longer! :)

PLEASE make a tutorial on the theme!!

Ahhh!! I know you mean the iPhone theme, I promise I will, I just get busy with school and then when I relax I make Tumblr themes instead because they're easier. GDC is next week and I'm crazy busy getting ready for that but I promise it will be my next project! No more procrastinating!

My friends, colleagues and I have recently noticed that communication with illustrators is falling apart. We lament this new trend often. While there are still many art directors in the field who…

This is also important for any kind of art or design work! It's a good read, check it out.

Question for my followers!

I finally decided to switch to Safari on my Macbook Pro. Chrome uses far too much RAM and causes my laptop fan to go nuts. It also has a weird bug where CSS files don't work on the Customize page unless they were uploaded using Tumblr's Upload Static File page. So I'd either have to (1) to save then refresh a separate tab to see changes or (2) upload a new CSS file every time I wanted to see a change. This got old really fast. Now I don't have either problem and my laptop stays nice and quiet.

However, the one thing I miss about Chrome is the XKit Quick Tag feature. I haven't found a good equivalent and I hate having to click the post tool button, click edit post, waiting for the post edit to open, add all the tags manually, and then saving. Does anybody know of an alternative that has similar functionality?

Great blog entry for new theme and app designers.

Re: Transistor theme

I've been observing the Transistor theme in the wild and I've noticed that some people have popups that don't work properly. Please note that having HTML in your description may break your layout! Safe HTML includes links <a>, paragraphs <p>, and formatting <strong> <em> <b> <i>. If your menu is broken and you need help, feel free to message me at http://elletricity.com/contact. Thank you!

Hello all!

I am planning to do a series of weapon vectors like the Transistor blade I just finished. I also just finished vectoring Ryuko's scissor blade from Kill La Kill. Can anybody think of any other swords or other weapons from games, books, movies, manga, anime, etc, that you might like to see?

Transistor Theme

Tumblr theme inspired by Supergiant’s Transistor. I’ve been stuck in a very particular aesthetic for a while now, and this theme together with Fleux are my first steps away. This is the first theme that’s broken my Source Sans Pro streak, in fact.

Features a fluid, responsive narrow two-column layout with customizable colors and fonts as well as widgets for Twitter and Instagram. Elements in this theme are inspired by Transistor’s look and feel. Most elements can be customized and toggled on or off. Read here for more information.
