i will be making a new rom with this in which youll be able to change to the normal one

I don't see any difference between this and your current rom, other than the background color. Is there something I'm missing?

he replaced the icons from the dash with the shadow for the home screen chrome and other bars
thanks ricky looking forward to it.

I like the new bars! Nice, is it an image or what? Is it semi-transparent so it works with any background!?

awesome work! i'm excited to see this. keep up the good work!

I never understood the need for a separate keypad locking application on the excalibur. Isn't it a lot easier to just hold down the End key until it locks ? beats having to scroll down to the right panel, choosing the application, then on top of that.. answering Yes or No to the "Lock keypad ?" question!!

I just want to say to you Rickwyatt Thank you for your continued work and sharing it with us. You are an inspiration to all owners. I'm becoming impatient on a new official 6.1 Rom even if there are no problems with me 1.33 brightpoint HTC WM6. It's like a new haircut, I need a change.
Sorry if this is not a plausible post for this thread but I am just thrilled how many creative minds this site has. I could mention so many but I'm sure you get my drift.

Can't have too many Locks? Seriously, I dunno. I have an auto locker with a not-too-annoying delay, keeps me out of embarrassment when I'm at the bar.

Yep! It's the holy grail! hehe

Sorry, one more thing. If you are doing it with CeleCmd, can you make a new folder for the new dll, that Celecmd loads the contents of, so that we can drop in our own hacks into the switcher? I understood just enough of the documentation to realize that CeleCmd is pretty powerful.
And if not, could you include the dark version I made in your ROM? Please?
UPDATE Don't want to make a whole 'nother post again so soon. I'm off to make a totally new background for the Cpanel bubble. Something curly/tribal, if I can get it to look good.

This is a good post, hopefully this will come out soon.

looks good. how about adding a weather panel to the homescreen?

That's what I'm talking about, If you are going to a job, do it right and you did it right, awesome job, awesome ROM, awesome fixes. The symbols are back........!
i do like the rom. I noticed it runs much faster than the stock rom that comes with tmobile. Still some glitches to work out I guess.
You certainly created more customization.
What other fixes are involved with this .rom ? Also Is it possible for me to change the color of the clock to black? Sorry I don't know much.
Thanks a lot. I wish I could contribute more but I am still a n00b and probably will be one for years.

It works well... although the vista cursor is a little jumpy. I'm thinking whoever made the PNGs didn't align them properly. heh

Worked like a charm, thank you
i cant get this to work at all. i install it like it says then restart and i get noting, it uses the normal loading thing when it starts back up. also i tried switching it in the reg and got nothing. even tried to uninstall and reinstall.
REALLY?
I got this to install with Organic's reg edit help. Whenever I use it on let's say My Photos to load a pic from that panel, it shows the waiting icon I selected which does rule, but when it's done loading that icon it shows the background in a little square in the center of my pic. That is where the loading icon/cursor is located. I change from one pic to the next, and there is a waiting cursor, and once again there is a square with the previous picture's center located in the middle.
I know this might not seem like a BIG deal, but these are the fine details that kill a program and it's utility in a homescreen.
PLEASE HELP!!

what do you think about this CHome theme

What do you think about this Chome Shadow theme?
Not bad Too much brown though... I hate that brown Just personal preference though.. hehe
looks good, what about a blue lol
looks good just like the shadow
It looks slick -- but I don't like that you can't see the panel above and below the active panel.
yea I'm not a fan of the brown either....keep exploring new options for the panel....love your work
whoa, shadow on ur dash. sweet.
That's the point I think.... he's trying to achieve the Shadow look. But yeah, at least do a 0.5 opacity on those collapsed panels Ricky
uh oh ricky, dont get the shadow users mad. if they find out, they might come to the forums again and complain. :|
Oh yeah that Freddy Reyes guy will come here and complain that we stole his cab and "used it without permission"... you know... the one that makes some registry edits for Chome (Microsoft software) and changes some .xml files around (again... Microsoft software).
I've seen the cabs I make, make it all the way to china on the pda4x forum with some guy posting it as his own. I don't care, I make them and post them on the net to SHARE, not to go whine if someone else uses them. Especially when we talk about software that we do NOT own, or for that matter even have permission from microsoft to modify!!
Real quick
How did you change the arrow icons?
Also how did you put the time on the settings pane?

Are we talking about v23 here? I was gonna flash from 20 to 22, but if this is gonna be on 23, i'll wait.

Yep... what Mike said. I'm surprised you don't know how to do this, after creating that theme that way ?! Don't steal it from the shadow forum, they might come down and kill us all for modifying those .cpr file again. lmao

Simple Smart Theme for HTC S620 WM6 by DIZER + Screenshots

I have made this theme -my 1st theme - wanted it to be very simple,very light and actually very practical with the MRU on the top so you don't have to roll down to reach to your recently opened applications , and for me it's the 1st priority and am sure it's the same for many others who use the MRU much and don't need these stuffed glittering homescreens .
liked to share it with you . hope that you all like it

Hey guys , no one likes this theme ?
I think that most folks are still in love with sliding panels.
It does look nice though.
Oh good job on that man, much props for doing such a nice theme...

Looking forward to it. If I remember right, and for the record, I think you left the start function there, it is just transparent, to enable Sense UI feeling, right?

Hi Lucas0511,
Iam glad to see you here again
yes, thats right, its only transparent and the start function works normally.
It looks very nice!
I'm not really sure if i would like the absence of the start icon though. Maybe you can create version with just an icon and one without?
(yeah i know i'm already asking for modification before the project is even released, but please regard it as positive enthusiasm )
Keep up the great work !

Somebody who have found bugs?
it all works wonderfully other than a few white dots around the battery part.

I know the bluetooth isn't working now, because I have some troubles withe the masks
I have noticed the spacing problem too and I will fix that. The icon size is 32x32 pixel and not every icon use all of the place, because of that you see the space between some icons

with or without the grey bars?

first a big thanks for your work! its looking real nice!
only thing, that i have to "complain" about, is the icon that shows the connection. if you are connected it is really small above the signal bars, and hard to see for my bad eyes
shouldn't wear those sunglasses at night
oo and i would prefer signal bars in between light, sky and royal blue
