whats wrong with my customized manila files? - Touch HD Themes and Apps

Hey everybody,
I have found relly nice icons (PNG files) and I want to integrate them in manila.
I have used the manila editor from these post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=414861
but when I have all finished, the files not shown really clear
there are some grey or black dots and I think they aren't sharp.
here some screenshots
maybe I have to convert the files? Hope someone can tell me what to do

Weird. Personally I use png file format for the graphics and CFC GUI to edit the manila. I see that manila editor supports bmp, png and jpg. What format are your graphics in? Maybe the conversion isn't going as smoothly as it could?

Oh yeah, d'oh! I'd still suggest trying CFC GUI, only because I've not encountered the black splotches using that myself...

[THEME]Blue Gems v0.1

So... because you've all helped me learn much about my new Blackstone.. I thought I'd contribute this theme:
It's pretty basic: just a clock, a background some modified frames and tab icons.
All graphics were plundered from free sources.... As you can tell I was playing with transparency.
To use it please rename .theme.zip to just .theme and install with diamond tf3d or just copy the files into your windows directory.
Anyway.. I don't use 15 tabs so if anyone notices icons in the wrong place please tell me and I'll switch them over.
Also installed and relevant:
Diamond TF3D config - to install the .theme file
Cyprus LTD Colored Top - For the pretty topbar icons
NisseDILLIGAF 3Iconmenu - To remove extra tab icons
NisseDILLIGAF NoCurtains - For no curtains
Aside from that.. hope you like.
good....thank you.
i want 15 tab...can u made it?
sorry my bad english...
All the icond for extra tabs are included.. but may be the wrong way round! Let me know and i'll swap them.
=[
Im new to all this...do i jus drag n drop to my memory card??

The best way is to create another folder called Themes inside your My Documents folder and save the .zip file attached in there.
Then download a program called Diamond tf3d config (you can find it here on xda with a quick search) Then use the programs installl themes function (it's in the appearance tab)
That way you can switch easily between themes without needing to install and uninstall cabs all the time.
i dont see the tabs in transparency mode... why is that? its all grey instead like the defalut one.
do i nned to use special manila? or program?..
your theme is really beautiful!

[SKIN][TF3D2][18-06-09] AnX1 Nature's Grace V1.0

(Click the image to download)
Donations are much appreciated!
​
Introduction:
This is based on my previous "Shadowsong" skin (which no longer exists).
Many people found that too gloomy and dark, so I adapted and made it... happier!
In the process I tried to preserve the balance between tech (glow, embossed) and
nature (background, colors) which I also tried to approach in Shadowsong.
This skin uses a lot newer code, with some neat features. Enjoy!
Changelog:
* None yet! *
Upcoming features:
- Improved start menu
- Inside menu's graphic tweaks
- Improved media player layout.
Features:
- Fully skinned TF3D2 with files from Rhodium build 1.19.
- Panoramic Background modification
- Improved Slider modification.
- Sprint clock modification
- Complete skin, including submenu's.
Acknowledgements:
- Guap: Sprint clock mode9 files.
- Rotastrain: Slider and panoramic background mode9 files.
Installation:
- Download the .cab file
- Copy the file to your device or memory card
- Run the .cab and install it to main memory
- Restart your phone
* If your TF3D becomes white after installation, your ROM or TF3D2 installation does not support CFC (Chainfire's compression). Download the compatibility cab and install that instead. (can be done on top of the previous install) *
Compatibility:
- Should be compatible with all TF3D2 Rhodium builds.
- WM6.1 confirmed.
- WM6.5 unconfirmed, but should work.

- AnX1 Actionscreen v1.2
- AnX1 Ethahetso Taskbar v2.2

Rotastrain made small tutorial on how to make backgrounds for this. (It's his panoramic code). Search for it, in this forum.
While I really appreciate the scenic background, I must say that reading white text on the light background is really not comfortable. Either the text will have to be made darker or that beautiful background has to change!
Yes, Rota made a nice tutorial to make panoramic backgrounds, but for those of us who have no IT skills, is there some place where panoramic backgrounds are available that we could just dump into a folder ... easy and simple?
The background is 01253_silence_1280x800.jpg from interfacelift.com (maybe the source is another size then 1280x800).

Seek and you shall find. In Rotastrain's thread about panosidetoside, users have posted over 50 wallpapers, all panoramic. =]

Actually, that is not my source. It's a wallpaper that is available at several sites all over the internet.
I've received quite some feedback on the TP2 forum, regarding some issues and suggestions.
Does everyone in here think it's just fine as it is? I'm not getting many replies, so I'm actively asking for 'em now.
Really nice, great job guy.
After installed, there is a part of white color on the "moving tab", even when I move it to anywhere , it still nothing change, but the backgroud of the tab such as home , message, mail ,etc, which is no problem
On this solution, is that mean's "If your TF3D becomes white after installation" ?
Beacuse I have also tried install 'compatibility cab' but there is nothing change, thx

No, that's not the same bug. With the white, I mean entire manila.
Please post a screencapture of the bug, so I can better understand what the problem is.
it's look like this ( I used your screen shot )
I am using X1 firmware R3AA010 , TouchFLO 3D 3.0.38196.3 B3

I see. I haven't seen this problem before. I think it's because Rotastrain's crystal slider isn't compatible with the CAB TF3D2. Rotastrain is the only one I know who can fix this. You had best ask him, so he can tell you which files he needs from you to be able to patch it.
help with stock icon
Hi Angelusz. This is a really great theme. I am having a problem with the stock preview icon. The 174ba15d_manila contains the correct image (see cfc gui screenshot), but displays the old stock icon (see other screenshot). I think this might have to do with the manila name. 174ba15d_manila is named stock_preview.qtc, while all of the other preview icons are named filename-hero.qtc (ie home-hero.qtc). The stock preview icon is the only one not listed under manila\icon preview. However, I do not know how to change the manila file name, so I cannot test it. Would you be able to test this to see if it corrects the issue? Thanks.

Wait, so how do you get the background image to move when going through the tf3d tabs, and is it possible to add own background that moves like that?

That moving background is Rotastrain's Panosidetoside. You can modify it, as it's just normal manila image files (QTC).

You must create a new cab. Must use Cfc_gui
Here is an example!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=574317
The big icons are 256x256!
Thank you for your reply but it is not related to manila or sense it is related to the application itself
Ex. I do not like the icon that Beejieve IM have and I vant to replace it with a 90x90 png file.
How can I do that the best think is to be done in the cabinet file in order to be able to share it with others(the cab) but only changing the shortcut in windows it will be good for me also I know that there is a very nice application named: JWMD Icon Changer but I just do not want to have an additional application for thet that is one time task.
Thank you anyway for your time and good intention.

The background was created with the maranell0 program that you can find here

The program, if you have a rom with WM 6.5, lets you create a background that also covers bars

Manila 2.5.1920 Font Color change?

When using Wallpapers that are more on the bright side and BG4all, it becomes really difficult to read the text on some of the HTC Sense (Manila 2.5) tabs, especially the messaging one.
So I was wondering if it is possible to change the font color to black or something else.
Anyone know something about this?
Thanks,
Rag.

Same question here.
I found a thread where they talk about it but its not Manila 2.5.
So I would like to know which Files I have to edit in 2.5
Here is the Thread I mean:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2749452
Thank you for help
I use m9Editor, look for the mode9 files for the parts u want to change..
Manila mode9 u can search say for all entries called "text" this will so you things such as carrier name, in there you can add a property for the colour and change it to what you want.
Look for the m9editor thread, much better explanations in there than I can give
Found them;-
My example, if this is what you mean - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=570395
