Thanks for the Donations, as you know there certainly are neccassary or even encouraged..BUT they are always appreciated!!
Concerning ROMs like Liquid, I like to see a little track record before I go thru the effort and spend my time Theming a Custom ROM, writing up the details/announcements, making custom Graphics etc... As you have have noticed some ROMers come in for a little while, make a splash and then siliently slide away. Even long time ROMers can take a break for a while. If you haven't noticed, LithiumMod Dev has "taken a break" so has the Dev for Insanely and a few others. It is hard for me to justify my precious time Theming any ROM when even the Devs are not supporting them any longer...it makes more sense to put my time into Theming those ROMs that have "legs" and are gonna be around and supported log term as I plan to do the same for my Theme.
I don't have to mention names all you have to do it read, but I will only be putting in the time and effort for the ROMs that are IMHO here for the long haul for you guys. I can say names like CyanogenMod and Simply Stunning come to mind...also Sapphire is certainly showing a lot of prefessionalism and I think they will be around for a long time. The Android world is sort of finicky sometimes and even long term guys like the Bugless Beast team seems to be AWOL. Don't want to open a debate about all of this and it really isn't any of my business except when it comes to me making decisions about which ROM to theme or not.
I will say I am watching Liquid and have heard a lot of good feedback so far and it is on the list, keep in mind it has only been here on DF for a week or so??? BUT, I have to get the Main ROMs like SS, CM, CVPS, etc and of course the Official Android ROMS updated first and then work on adding others.
As I have mentioned before and will say it again, I am considering UD, but would like to see their updates stabilize more before putting all the effort in, watching so far and historically, about the time I would get finished with a Theme for UD, a new version is released. IF they would do a "Themers Update.zip" that shows us ONYL which files are changed from one release to the next it would be more attractive to me. I am not talking about a "no Theme" stock version that some call a Themers version, but one like Chevy does for SS that is azip for us that only has the files that were changed. This says HUGE amounts of time...it is also why SS 47 will probably come next, just to show my support and appreciation for efforts like that.
Just as a heads up, since the LithiumMod Dev has just stated here they are "Taking a Break", it has been moved to the bottom of my lists, same goes for Insanely and any others that are "Taking a Break".
BUT, on a positive note that just moves ROMs like Liquid farther up the list
