The BGA previews sounds cool but yea it wouldn't fit well for this theme since it's DDR inspired.
And I wanted to be more of a tease and made this:
The folder that appears when SD becomes available.

That looks amazing, very very amazing. Can't wait for this to come out. I want to play it! Are there, by any chance, going to be beta releases or pre-releases or something for this theme?

The theme doesn't even have a timeframe so I'm not sure if there will be any at all even if we have something ready. I do however think we can show off something later on by making a mini trailer for the theme or something rather than just posting still images.

I actually I have an idea for the theme that I have not seen anywhere else. Could you guys implement BGA Previews in the music wheel a la SingStar? It'd be cool if the preview faded in after one second, lasted the length of the samplemusic, faded away in the last second, then looped by fading in the clip back from the very beginning, showing some stuff missed the first time. As to where the preview would go, I'd take a page from SingStar and make it the width of the Album Art/banner, in the center. I seriously have not seen another theme for DDR do this, or at least right.
Neat. But it doesn't fit the style of this theme.

Pretty much this. Information and preview media will become more frequent as we get closer and closer to a finished product.

Am I seeing some design cues from a certain jubeat marker?

That's because Alan made DDR STARLIGHT the default theme for the entire site.

I think he was noticing how it says DDR II in the corner where the countdown timer was.

I just want to ask a little question. this theme has RDA EXtra Stage system, but which RDA system will be used in this theme? RDA system in DDR X2 (6 songs as Extra stage, 1 song as One More Extra Stage) or in DDR II (a lot of song, no One More Extra Stage).
(preparing simfiles for Starlight Drive...)

It's going to be more like X2's RDa system.

and, another question.
this theme has RDA System. how about the standard ES? will it still exist?
and, about the songs. will all the songs become available from the start or we must unlock it first in order to play it in StarlightDrive? (just like DDR X2 RDA)

Standard ES will still be there. As far as unlocking the Starlight Drive songs, I'm not sure yet. We're still working out those details although since Starlight Drive is meant to have some surprises, we won't be able to tell you much.

A little something to continue grabbing interest. Heavily updated the main screens to look more detailed and dynamic. The gray gradients from X2 kind seemed out of place so I'm starting tie everything together with the theme's main blue/indigo/cobalt colors. I'm starting to give the theme have more of my touch and refining the graphics the way I need them to be.

This theme is looking pretty sexy! 
I just have a quick question.
Are the square banners going to just use the background picture like how the DDR X2 AC theme did, or will songs be able to have their own banners with a different background?

As of StepMania 5 preview 4, StepMania recognizes square disc jackets as a separate file. I'm trying to write the screen in such a way that if StepMania doesn't detect a jacket or your simfile is coded as a .sm file then it will fallback to the song's banner. Backgrounds will only be used as backgrounds.

I want to get this clear.
If the song has a square banner (alongside the 256x80 banner), the theme will show the square banner.
If the song doesn't have a square banner, the theme will show the 256x80 banner.
Am I right?
(btw, completed fixing my simfile.. when this theme get released, I will be ready with my SD songs...)
