Conquest

Well, I guess it's finally time to say so long.  We got a ton of snow in the Buffalo area recently and as a result, a snow bank ate my S3.  I had planned on releasing the work that I had completed on my 'material' style redesign but last night, my hard drive crashed.  I'd like to say that posting to Blogger from my ancient Optimus V running Gingerbread is really not the most pleasant experience in the world.  So long, all, and thank you for your help and support.

Dev status

OK so you may be wondering what's going on with the lollipop style signal indicators I promised.  Here's the deal: the next beta of Singularity is going to sport a new default theme heavily influenced by/based on Lollipop's Material theme.  It's NOT a Lollipop theme, much the same way the Honeycomb Inspiration theme is NOT a Honeycomb theme.  I'll release the original default (KitKat) theme separately for those who prefer it.
