First, the icons
The process to create a topic with Peafowl consists of three steps, all of them accessible from the icons at the bottom of the window. On the first tab, Home, is located the customization of the icons. The application shows you several packages of icons ready for use (some are extra), so you have to choose one as a base.
Just below you can make adjustments on the size and shape of these icons. Basically, you’ll be able to choose the difference in size between the icon itself and its form, as well as the amount of curvature you want on the edges (if you put it at the minimum, you will have square icons; if you put it to the maximum, circular).

Some of them are a volume bar semi-transparent, the background color for the dock, radio buttons in the phone app, icons as MIUI for files or folders with a color more brilliant.

Finally, save and apply your theme
When you already have everything ready, put the name of your theme in the bottom and press the button of complete. This will generate the theme and save it, even if you are the one who must apply it. For this you will need to go to the Settings of your phone > Main screen and background screen > Themes. Go then to the tab I (below) and tap in Topics.

If you have created multiple topics, you can be difficult to tell them apart, although it includes the topic that you chose at creation.
