It isn't a real theme. I have make some changes so as we have better looking
at our backgrounds. You can use it with all your wallpapers.
When we have the same background at all the Tabs, there is a problem if we use colored wallpapers or photos.
The problem has to make with the icons because they are black and look very bad.
I found a very simple solution for that. I made 50% transparent all the icons so as they look little darker than the color which has our background.
You can use it with any background color, dark or light.
Maybe later I make them real crystal, but need a lot work and I have not so match time these days.
If you like my fonds you can find them here (Thanks to Onkolog)

I have add at the People Tab the bigger transparent icons.
So I changed the CAB. Download the new one.
very nice! does this include the font used for the titles (e.g., Weather)? if not, what is the font name and how does one install to their device? also, when you press one of the transparent icons (like the call mobile button on the people page) does it change so you know it's been pressed? thanks!
Hi nanoo-eg
Please put your Picture in your Post.
The link is really bad. I don't know the others, but with me, I can't see it.
This's your second thread with I would like to see the picts.
Thanks,
KCJ
works & looks very nice on my device! i like the way they're in the background. in case you plan to refine, i'd like to share with you my observations for the people page: there are some people icons that aren't transparent depending upon the type of numbers (mobile, home) and the number of contact items (e.g., mobile, email, home). for example, if a person has only a mobile number, manila uses different (larger) icons for the mobile and text icons. neither icon is transparent. also if a person has a mobile, home and work number, and an email address, the work number icon is not transparent, but the others are transparent. hope this helps! your time, effort and contributions are very much appreciated!
looks great.does your slider work with the stock tab?mine does the ugly double icon thing! if yes can i have it.

Yes there is problem. It happens because I made my tests with a contact which has 4 icons (mobile-home-sms-mail). I will fix it right now and I 'll give new CAB

I am sorry but I am not sure if I understand you well.
Like I write at the first post it isn't a real theme.
Just I made the icons which there are on every TAB to be transparent so as every wallpaper you use, looks better because original icons have black background around them. (You must use the same wallpaper for all Tabs. If your wallpaper it is black you don't need to install this cab). But if you use a photo like a background, you need the transparency.
For example I changed to tranparency at Music Tab, the 4 icons play, pause, preview song, next song. The same I made for all the Tabs.
I don't know if I answer at your questions.
Thanks a lot, will try to use it.
This was were i was looking for, thx!
Hi everybody!
I have tried a lot oft mods from this forum on my HTC HD Mini... I´m very pleased but also very picky.
I´m trying to find a way to get rid of the box bethind the icons on the "quicklaunch" as shown in the picture. I have tried the 12 row and the 16 row and they work but then the homescreen wallpaper applies on all screens and I just want the plain grey besides from the homescreen/lockscreen.
Can anyone help me?
This is what I want to get rid of without getting the home-wallpaper in all sence-tabs (screen not mine):
If you have the cookies home tab (CHT) installed, you should download CHT editor and there you can get those boxes transparent.
Is there no finished CAB I can use that I missed on the forum??
Found one here: http://www.ad-grafiska.se/hd2/
It´s named "Touch X transparent quicklinks when asign app.cab"
Worked like a charm!
There is an 16mod shct and 12mod shct from Gabbana-Music that there all are invisible!
I don't like it so because i like the symmetry of icons...
@ Manneman32
Can you post a screenshot please?
Sure thing
It shows the empty shadowed box with 70% transparacy and 100% when occupied with an icon.
As I wrote in my first post... Gabbana-Music´s 12 and 16 icon row makes is a little buggy for me.
Hi all. I have been searching a lot about changing the background color / image on the menus (I don't want it black, i want something different). And well, I don't understand how to do it. Well, this is my last alternative. I want a theme or something, but I just want to change the background color on the menus, nothing else. Maybe green, blue, an image, or something, whatever. I have seen the 5 pages of "Galaxy Ace S5830 Themes and Apps" and I couldn't find something like this (you know, they change everything, icons, bars, colors, and sometimes background images).
I found some threads asking almost the same, but no one answered, so I did it here.
I understand that maybe no one is going to answer hahaha well. Thanks, cya.
Hi all,
I'm trying to make some widget locker themes that have text in the background image. I was able to make a few with just the standard rounded corner rectangle outline that a lot of themes use and I was also able to get it to work with a black and red version of my text background. But for whatever reason, when I change the background up to be black and white, my text gets all jumbled. It gets stretched in the middle between two letters rather than the whole background stretching.
I have to be doing something wrong, but I can't figure out what. I've follow both of the tutorials and understand have about five or six different themes that work, but for whatever reason this one with text is kicking my butt. Anybody else ever run into this?
Thanks,
Dave

Well,
I've made some progress with this. I messed around with the background image and found that the single black pixel placed at the top of the image is where widget locker stretches the image to fit the screen. My temporary solution was to off set the pixel to the left side of my text. The only side effect is that now my text isn't centered as I wanted it. Instead is now on the right side of my screen. It looks ok with the lock screen I am running, but I don't understand why it works with one background (being center) and not the other.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Dave
