Another Raging Idiot bright idea... ("EyesPhone" Theme)

LOL...
A play on words, and I do hate IPhone themes, but yes this theme is to make the phone look similar to the screenshots.

I ran into some difficulty getting it to work, but I really don't think it should be all that difficult to do.

While there is no "I" in EyePhone I figured it could be a team effort. Open source.
So please provide details and elements to be built upon.

I will donate a bit to the first couple of contributors, or more, depending on level of contribution towards theme.

What I have displayed is just a mock up I made in Paint to get the idea started. The funnier the better. Could add other details if you can change the top bar to look like hair, or reduce visibility of fonts, etc...
I'd like to see just how funny and creative we can get with this.

Also one of the pics demonstrates a concept of potentially having the time/pupils move with the corresponding time. at 12:11 you would have left eye looking at hour12 and right eye looking towards the minute 11. Of course it would need more work to make it "look" better. lol Regardless that would be the "crazy eyes" version, and probably a bit more difficult to work out, so again that was just a spinoff idea.
This does require some imagination and a sense of humor, so it's not for everyone!

For some reason I couldn't get the pictures to display in this forum, therefore it's just displayed as a link. I'll attach them as well just for good measure. If someone would let me know how to get it to display the pics here or just go ahead and display them that would be great.

If the idea is feasible, and I think it is, then this should be a fun quick little project to participate. Thanks in advance.

I'm not gonna lie, I don't really understand what I'm looking for...

The OP is basically reffering to making a clock that looks like eyes, if I am not mistaken, where the numbers are the pupils and possibly move around according to numbers on an analog clock.

Exactly. To make this, you would take the existing theme from the Touch Diamond and change the number pictures.
So instead of having big numbers you would have small dark numbers inside a white background.

The other pieces, to put it all together, would be changing the color of the bottom bars to be red with a dark border to make it look like lips. And the Selector thing to be a different shade of red and thus appearing as to be the tounge. So when you slide your finger pulling the selector across the selections it gives appearance of licking the screen.
It takes a bit of creativity and sense of humor, but I think it will be great if ever made. Actually, if someone could point me in the right direction on changing the clock pictures then perhaps I'll do it myself if no one else gets there first.
