ok so here is mine i have used. i will call this liverpool Champions league winners
1- date

3- sbp gprs monitor
4- sbp pocket plus
5- spacer
6- today player
oh and i used CEcapture its free you should find it at www.limelink.com
Boring old today screen, fine-tuned for efficiency
Cool idea & nice today screen.
Mine's a totally different approach. I tried all kinds of backgrounds, but found that photo's make the text hard to read, so eventually I came back to the boring old default blue one... I expanded it to the top and bottom of the screen.
Wisbar
Pocketbreeze
Battery bar pro
Weatherpanel (in Pocketbreeze tab)
My Today screen is all about information. I want my appointments, tasks and mail notifications to be clearly readable, with important items highlighted, yet easy on the eyes - no fluorescent stuff for me. Notice the carefully chosen text colors and the everso subtle hint of font shading to make it stand out. 8) (ok I know, I'm so full of it... :roll: )
The icon console in the Wisbar top bar is my own design. I tried to make it as compact as possible, to allow for a lot of running program icons next to the start button.
There's four scrollable rows of program shortcuts in the Program bar.
Might experiment with skinning a little more, it's fun.
i like the wisbar plug-in do you know where i can get it for free :wink:
Wisbar

Works fine on my WM2003
where do you go to change the settings ????????????/
does anyone have a good windows mobile 5 ppc theme? or at least close to one?
Try this, its already optimized for PocketPlus.
I'm bored, so might as well post my new creation as well.
Juni's SWDeluxe Skin Suite v3.0
Juni's modified Chromium
Quickie question, those that have the task bar skinned...what app are you using to skin the notfication button and signal strength? Haven't found anything that works on the XV6600.
I'll post my today screen when I get home:
Date
SPB PocketPlus with Weather tabbed
SPB Diary
Messages
SPB 'Sphere' theme
I like my Today with plain black background. It's easier for me to read !!

It's Wisbar Advance 2. Skinning it yourself is not too difficult; I made my taskbar and taskbar icons with Photoshop. But there's plenty of cool skins available, like the ones from Juni.
I've found that with Wisbar Advance 2.0, my resources are very low and it slows down the entire ppc. Anybody else with this problem? I love the various looks I can make, but because of it being so memory intensive, I've opted, for now, to not run it.
I'm with rsbenedict on this one. I've tried wisbar a few times, but it always seems to slow my device to a crawl. Has it improved recently?
WISBAR has been improved, try it for me no slowdowns
Skinners are getting better and better. I personally like this one as it matches my unit casing.
Hey Nomadman, what app are you using to pick up the news story?
Q.
took old tmobile blue homescreen did some editing and came up with this used the background from staulkor's from howard so kudos but i did edit the screens to work nicley here is a pic for some reason the one from staulkors kept showing the myfavs bubbles on screen so all i did was use the same background and edited the tmobile blue.xml to look like this first one i did so im still trying to figure out how to do this also have the black scheme to go with if anyeone is interested. what you all think??
i like it, i especially like how the carrier, time, and date are spaced out nicely. That's one thing that most homescreens lack
Um dude, this screen is old. I have had that for months. Someone else posted it a long time ago. Its called Black Dask.
really all i did was i found the one posted under black jack but for some reason myself and others the myfaves keeped turning on so all i did was edit the t-mobile blue xml and added the background from blackdash in it there where some commands where missing in the blackdash theme i downloaded like i said it came from staulker i belive none the less thanks for letting me know
i still like it lol
Hi - where to get it from? I like it very much, but here there is only a thumbnail attached, right?
Is also the calling dialog customized with these files?:
HTC_BrandingBrickImg_320x27
HTC_CallProgressBkg_320x186
HTC_WallpaperImg_320x240
I never seen a homescreen for s620 with that customized images.
So the result is e.g. grey theme, but still the default green calling dialog images.
You might like this one (I made it):

ok can still anybody publis the homescreenplease? I dont have it and cannot find it.
here it is the home screen i posted that i edited along with the blackscheme cab file to make it look like all black.
to make all black you homescreen layout needs to be at Grey Dash and your color scheme at black bars and your background image to default.
to get the all grey look color scheme and background set to default
enjoy!
thank you guys! it's nice!
do you know, how to make it that I don't have that green graphics on the calling application after I installed the new homescreen (see thumbnails)?
Thanks its great, and the green call screen can you change by jeyo personalizer whith another one
Thanks a lot, and the green screen can you change whith jeyo personalizer, to anyone
Can you make the Windows Basic layout in Grey ?
use this to change the dial pad operator from the green htc to this just install the cab and i think you'll like it just reset the device after install
save to storage
install
reset
and dial out and see
its basic but cool forgot where i found it though so kudos to whoever came up with it

Hi all,
this will be a quick one im sure.
Ive put schaps rom on my phone (brilliant rom schaps) and when i go into contacts I have the alphabet vertically from A-Z.
It may have been dur to me putting on the htc skin (sorry schaps purple aint for me) but now ive lost that vertical alphabet - how do i get that back?
I just have have the standard contact screen.
Any one?
i use Pocket CM contacts from long time so i m not really sure... isnt there some options-sort by function?
The vertical alphabet is called Random Access - there are some cabs floating around, just do a search for them (random_access should find it)
There's a purple one by schaps and a black one, kaiser\touch style.
Cheers,
Smiffy.
Thanks Lordsmiff .... thats the one .. and the Kaiser one works straight away!
Here's how to make it whatever color you want.

Hi,
Can anyone advise of a cab or regedit which removes the nasty green hilight when you select things from the menu's and in touchflo?
I have searched this fourum and others for days and tried various cabs and regiedts but nothing seems to work for the Touch HD. I would like to make the Dialler and all selections red (looks nice on black) but cant find a way of doing it.
I know how to edit the .tsk theme to get the colour I want in the wm6 menu's but the dialler, large startmenu and touchflo remain green.
If anyone can help please post back.
Cheers
Yes, u can change ths settings with HD Tweaks 0.5.4
Ok, But I have HD tweak 0.5.3 and it appears that 0.5.4 is only availiable in french.
As it is in French can you please confirm which setting allows it to be changed? (In French)
Many Thanks.

hmm..
i think i have seen a thread about changing the highlight color in TF3D, search the forum
for the enlarged start menu, i don't have a clue how to change the highlight color for it
but for the dialer, i have found it somehow:
use regedit, go to:
[HKLM\Software\HTC\PHONE]
highlightColor="0x5AA200"
highlightTextColor="0xFFFFFF"
well, pretty self-descriptive.
just change the hex code to the color you want.

Hello ppl,
I used it, it works really nice. 3kb cab file... so simple..
.. here are some pics as looks on my system.
I used a dull gray backgound for pictures..
You can drag and drop the elements in the position you want in order to set up order.. that works pretty fine.
Now, question is, any possibility to have bigger characters on the screen ? as this looks too small.. or at least to have them in one line only ? not white / yellow thing as on the screen ? only white and bigger - similar to windows default theme ? maybe more spaced.. but definitely larger characters.
Brgds,
Radu

Yes it's possible, the white or the yellow?
v2.. biggest fonts
hi,
if you ask me, i would like to have white letters only.
similar size, a little smaller than theme.
ideea would be to look consistent with theme default.
maybe...the "loupe" effect is it possible?

radu

What's the "loupe" effect?
This a simple css not a app. The fonts it's the original windows.
Just the white font it's possible. In same place but little smaller?
Hello again Mike,
Here are two pictures of actual look and what i think would look better.
Is about taking out the yellow writing all together, it does not make sense to have same thing written twice, it looks cluttered.
Unless, let's say, if there is a folder which has more than one icon inside it, like for example the Tools or Settings folder. There will have to have the big white letter for title and in yellow letters, below, the content of the folder.
Size of the yellow letter seems fine for me.
As for the white letter, maybe one single size increase, like from Tahoma12 to Tahoma 13 ( and/or bolded ) so that would look closer to original windows default theme. But, not too much as it looks now, "Microsoft My Phone" is very long and would go out of the screen on the right side..
My ideea would be to have same aspect once navigating in between main theme and control panel.
"Loupe" effect, is the highlight ( or magnify lens ) that is placed on the active icon, like the effect for the clock tab, in the main theme. Or can you replace this with a underline for the title... i do not know if this is even possible..
regards,
Radu
PS: i would be really happy if i knew to tinker code here, not to bother you..
LE : started reading the post in original thread, maybe the yellow text can remain but made smaller to resemble tooltip description... small text that you really need to look closer to understand the meaning of the title if not displayed correctly...Somehow to differentiate title from description and create impression of separate "paragraphs", if that is right term.

Sorry your post is complexe for me, my english is not better for understand you lol
For the code, no prob use the 2 files in attachement. For edit use notepad++ and replace the original in windows folder and softreset.
Tahoma 13 is the font of titanium? it's not a probleme for replace the font in start menu.
Thank you man, that's what i want, also i see this become a very useful post.... nice!!
Hello Mike,
Maybe i'm too dumb for this...
Can't edit file in pda... is opened already ??
Nor can copy/paste - have no rights...
Can you manage to make the package once again, but without yellow characters, at all ?

Radu
